When I was nineteen years old and playing the Hammond B-3 organ in a band called the Salvation Navy, we shared the bill with the Yard Birds. A skinny kid in burgundy lame pants and tie-dyed tank top walks onto the stage with his guitar and violin bow. He subsequently went on to blow our minds with his incredible virtuosity and a vision of what was to come. His name was Jimmy Page and he formed a new band the very next year.Led Zeppelin, with its roots steeped in rhythm and blues, was to become the greatest heavy metal band that rock 'n' roll had ever known.One particular guitar solo of Page's, from the song Heartbreaker, impressed me so much that I was inspired to write the fourth movement of this symphony. It was the forceful way he resolved the ideas in the last four measures that left the impression. HEAVY METAL, the second part of a trilogy containing SYMPHONY #2-REGGAE and SYMPHONY #4-FUNK, had its compositional beginnings on January 13, 1987. Work continued periodically until its completion on March 13, 1990.To attitude, melodrama and pure, pubescent energy!ORCHESTRATIONPiccolo2 Flutes2 OboesEnglish Horn2 Bb ClarinetsBass Clarinet2 BassoonsContra Bassoon4 Horns in F3 Bb Trumpets2 Tenor TrombonesBass TromboneTuba(six percussionists)4 Timpani (30, 28, 25 23)GlockenspielMarimbaVibraphoneTom toms (high, medium & low)SnareBassSuspended CymbalCrash CymbalTam tamTriangleAnvil14-16-22 1st Violins12-14-18 2nd Violins10-12-14 Violas8-10-12 Celli6-8-10 Double BassesDuration: (55:00)
