This is THE FIRST full recording of this piece here on YouTube. I'm surprised no one has uploaded this earlier considering how popular Mackey's wind ensemble pieces are on here. For good reason too, Mackey's in my top 5 composers.
Quick description of this piece off of ostimusic.com:
"Clocking is influenced strongly by dance and movement, though its two movements, seemingly disparate, incorporate the idea of motion in entirely different ways. The title is intentionally vague, like Mackey’s earlier Turning, leaving much of the interpretation to the listener. Nevertheless, the abstract concept of time moving constantly – whether slowly and with flux or insistently with purpose – is a unifying motive of the work."
COMPOSER: John Mackey
CONDUCTOR: William Wakefield
BAND: University of Oklahoma Wind Symphony
TRACKLIST:
0:00 - I.
6:54 - II.

![Randall Woolf — Shakedown (1990) [w/ score]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/lptGev_iKj0/mqdefault.jpg "Randall Woolf — Shakedown (1990) [w/ score]
Randall Woolf studied composition privately with David Del Tredici and Joseph Maneri, and at Harvard. Recent commissions include works for the Seattle Symphony, Paul Dresher Ensemble, Dogs of Desire orchestra, and a new ballet of Where the Wild Things Are, in collaboration with Maurice Sendak and Septime Webre. His works have also been performed by Kathleen Supové, Bang on a Can/SPIT Orchestra, Kansas City Symphony, David Leisner, Twisted Tutu, Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble, and others.
This is Woolf’s very exciting and driving “Shakedown” for chamber orchestra. Robert Carl wrote in the notes of this CD, “Rock Steady” where this recording originates:
“A brilliant sense of orchestration. This applies above all to Randy’s writing for mixed ensembles, such as Shakedown (1990, written for Alea III). Here thirteen players create a sound whose fullness is truly orchestral. Colors are bright and contrasting, sharp and primary, like the best Pop Art. Attacks are edgy and intense, etching lines with the quick violence of a knife-slice. And the music can shrink and balloon in an instant, moving from full-throated tuttis to delicate two-part melody/accompaniment textures.”
COMPOSER: Randall Woolf
CONDUCTOR: Bradley Lubman
ENSEMBLE: New Millennium Ensemble + Meridian Arts Ensemble
