  Night Terror by Brian Rhodes

Grade Level - 4.5

 

 

"Night Terror" is a musical description of the medical condition known as pavour nocturnus or sleep terror. Night terror occurs when one is abruptly awakened during the fourth stage of sleep, often accompanied by gasping, running around the room and even screaming. Although this seems scary, it is actually harmless and the subject often goes back to sleep, totally unaware of what happened. This chart begins with a calm lullaby, the launches into a fast weird rock tune that is aggressive and relentless, including measures of full band atonal improvisation. The solo section is a series of unrelated sus7 chords written for the alto sax. The tune ends with a rather demented quote of Brahms "Lullaby" before crashing to an end. This chart is aggressive, loud, full of attitude and may be just the amount of weirdness you need for your next concert.
