UGA Wind Ensemble: To the Bells of Berlin Cathedral by Julie Giroux
To the Bells of Berlin Cathedral (2024) (8’25”)
Julie Giroux (b. 1961)
Ensemble: The University of Georgia's Wind Ensemble
Conductor: Dr. Nicholas E. Williams
Performance Date: September 19, 2024
To the Bells of Berlin Cathedral has several very personal facets to it. It is the first music I have composed after the death of my mother. This music may not have been specifically written for her, but there is no putting a wall up between my feelings of loss and my artistic expressions. It just can't be done. Another facet is, I told this story to my good friend, Bruce Leek. He loved it and it brought tears to his eyes as well as mine. He may have been a little gruff on the outside, but he wasn't on the inside. That was also to be my last conversation with Bruce before he died. For several months, I could not compose at all. It was just too much. In many ways, it still is. The beautiful story between an author and a little girl, brought me back to composing. I will never forget the way it felt, composing these notes. And just like the little girl, I too learned that: “Everything you love is very likely to be lost, but in the end, love will return in a different way.”
Program note by the composer
Julie Giroux is an American composer of works for orchestra, chorus, chamber ensembles, and a significant body of music for wind ensemble. She studied at Louisiana State University and Boston University, and was a student of Jerry Goldsmith, Bill Conti, and John Williams. With over 100 film, television, and video game credits, Giroux collaborated with dozens of film composers, producers, and celebrities including Samuel Goldwyn, Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, Madonna, Liza Minnelli, Celene Dion, Paula Abdul, Michael Jackson, Paul Newman, Harry Connick Jr. and many others. Projects she has worked on have been nominated for Oscars, Emmys, Grammys and Golden Globe awards. She has won individual Emmy Awards in the field of “Outstanding Individual Achievement in Music Direction.” When she won her first Emmy Award, she was the first woman and the youngest person to ever win that award. She has won it three times.
