Buckvich's "Symphony #1 (in Memoriam, Dresden, 1945)" is performed by the 1987-88 Trinity High School Band from Euless Texas under the direction of Tom Neugent.
Symphony No. 1 (In Memoriam, Dresden, 1945)
Movements:
1. Prologue
This movement establishes the mood of impending disaster and presents the thematic material upon which the rest of the piece is based.
2. Seeds in the Wind
The title of this movement refers to the method of "seeding" the bomb target with jellied gasoline and incendiaries. The movement portrays the fury of the bombing attack.
3. Ave Maria
The material in this movement reflects upon the religious and artistic heritage of Dresden and becomes a prayer for the victims of the attack.
4. Fire Storm
In this movement, the sounds of the "Fire Storm" are recreated. Musically, the last movement serves as a resolution to the tension built up in the previous three movements.
