Lee Shook

Grade 1

'Beyond The 7th Gate' will be an outstanding selection for your next festival performance. Written in overture form (ABA) and thematically based on the natural minor scale, this composition explores a variety of musical moods. The somber opening, featuring solo flute and alto saxophone (themes of which are developed in the chorale section) is followed by a decisive change of mood established by the driving percussion ostinato in 2/2 meter. Drama builds as woodwinds, and then brass, explore the ascending natural minor scale motif. The percussion obstinato gives way to a fiery woodwind flourish in (bar 62) punctuated by brass and percussion. Trumpets join the mix with a new melody (bar 70) and the tension mounts as the percussion section completes the dynamic build into bar 86. The contrasting chorale section, beginning in bar 91, will give your musicians an opportunity to demonstrate their ability to apply a mature level of emotional expressiveness to their interpretation of the themes developed in this lyric section. Take care to keep the moving lines in the forefront with supporting harmonies balanced appropriately in the background parts. Upper winds join the percussion ostinato in the return to the A section with clapping sounds performed at various levels as lower winds apply heel tapping in unison with the bass drum part. Pay attention to the difference in positioning of the hands from section to section as this affects the timbre and pitch of the clapping sounds. A recap of the woodwind and brass themes leads to a dramatic conclusion in which all sections participate in the ostinato percussion rhythm. The programmatic nature of this composition is suggested by the title. The "story" told by this music however, is left to the musicians and their conductor to interpret. I suggest the conductor encourage students to share their thoughts on what story line may come to their minds while rehearsing and performing Beyond The 7th Gate.

Super Fun
Color: Green
One of the most entertaining things you could buy. The dogs go crazy over it and have so much fun. It's a bit loud on hard floors, but honestly worth it for the laughs. Seems pretty durable too. I have 2 labs; one started out uninterested and the other started off scared of it, but not too long after, they both started going crazy, tossing and carrying it around while it shook.

Good product. My dog is very entertained and stimulated by playing with it.
Color: Green, Size: Small (2.0 in, Pack of 2)
I'M AMENDING THIS REVIEW AND ADJUSTING THE RATING UPWARD! Though it took my dog a little while to adjust to how differently this ball behaves, HE LOVES IT NOW. I wish I could give you a sense of how enjoyable and comically entertaining it is to play with him using it. ORIG. REVIEW: Bought this for a little 8 lb. aggressive chewer who loves to play fetch. I initially bought the 2" Chuckit! Ultra ball previously. It is the most amazingly durable product I've found for this pup. Very firm, but not hard on his teeth. He's very quick and agile, so I thought he would like the eye-mouth coordination challenge of a ball that changes direction suddenly. I guess my only disappointment with the product is that the ball is hollow instead of having a solid core like the Ultra ball, so he doesn't enjoy chomping down on it the same way. The erratic bounce feature is entertaining, but the pup is a little skittish, so he was intimidated at first. He's warmed up to it, but not with the same enthusiasm as the Ultra ball. Having said all this, I don't fault the product for the rating I gave it. It is a quality-made product that performs as advertised. I just didn't anticipate that my dog would be less enthusiastic than I thought.

Highly entertained golden retriever!

My golden retriever spends hours chasing this ball. Its erratic bounce pattern keeps him engaged and guessing where to chase the ball. It is durable and stands up to chewing well.
