Martin Luther/Joseph M.
Martin. Galatians 4:4-5,
II Timothy 1:9-10, John
14:26-31, Psalm
98:1-3.
Written in
commemoration for the
500th anniversary of the
Protestant Reformation,
this special commission
takes the words of Martin
Luther and delivers them
with music of scope and
power. A significant
instrumental flourish
opens the piece, setting
the stage for an
energetic theme that
combines traditional
style with a more modern
rhythmic vocabulary.
Episodic sections reflect
the rise of this
significant text which
articulates the story of
redemption. Score and
Parts (tpt 1-2, hn, tbn,
tba, timp) available as a
digital download.

This suite was
composed by Jan Van der
Roost on the occasion of
the 110th anniversary of
the ‘Koninklijke
Sint
Martinusfanfare’
(Royal Saint Martinus
Fanfare Band) from Halle
(Belgium). The composer
was required to create a
suite in three movements
based on three images
associated with the
‘Sint
Martinusfanfare’
from the small town of
Halle in the province of
Brabant. The first
movement (Andante
Pomposo) describes
Martin, a soldier in the
Roman army. In Andante
Moderato we see the image
of Martin, who become a
Christian and chooses to
devote his life to God.
In this movement, the
composer was inspired by
the Brabantine gothic art
of the Sint Martinus
Basilica in Halle.
Thecontrast between the
dark Basilica and the
statue of Our Lady
between the soaring
pillars will vividly come
to life for audiences of
this descriptive piece.
The final movement,
Allegro Molto
Vivace’, could
have been an image for a
frivolous peasant in the
Halle carnival. In a
triptych about St. Martin
it is more fitting to
refer to it as an
apotheosis, the crown on
the pastoral work of
Martin, Bishop of Tours,
Patron Saint of the
Fanfare Band and the
Basilica of Halle.

Komponisten was es, ein
dreisätziges Werk zu
schreiben, dessen
einzelne bildhafte Teile
einen Bezug zur Sint
Martinusfanfare
herstellen sollten. Der
erste Satz, ein Andante
Pomposo, beschreibt
Martin, Soldat im
römischen Heer. Das
darauffolgende Andante
Moderato zeichnet ein
Bild von Martin, der sich
zum Christentum bekehrt
und sein Leben Gott
widmen möchte. In
diesem Satz ließ sich
derKomponist von der
brabantischen Gotik der

Kontrast zwischen der

dubious transmission.

Krakow. No wonder, since
Mendelssohn had breezily
given away his original
at an early date. The
result: during his
lifetime, versions were
published with his
authorization, even
though they were full of
unintended
inconsistencies. Yet the
autograph of 1826 is
unequivocal: it is clear,
practically free of
irregularities and
diverges considerably
from the corrupted

professional and amateur
musicians. In C.F.
Martin and His Guitars,
1796-1873, Philip
Gura chronicles the
career of Christian
Frederick Martin from his
humble start as an
importer and repairman of
musical instruments in
New York City in the
1830s through his move to
Nazareth, Pennsylvania,
and the founding of C.F.
Martin & Company. Gura is
the first historian to
thoroughly study the
Martin company records
dating back to the 1830s:
Letters, account books,
inventories, and other
documents. Using this
rich archive, Gura
establishes how a German
immigrant from Saxony's
guild tradition became
the finest American
guitar maker of his time
and created a uniquely
American business that
successfully eclipsed its
competition.
As
Gura shows, Martin's
success was based on his
successful navigation of
the rapid economic
expansion and
industrialization of his
time. The many sketches
and hundreds of
photographs illustrate
how Martin adapted his
artisanal craft to modern
industrial methods,
maintaining quality while
meeting increased demand
for instruments. Gura
traces the network of
suppliers who provided
Martin with his raw
materials and explores
the advertising and other
methods Martin employed
to build a market for his
goods. After Martin's
death in 1873, the
company continued to
grow. It thrives today
under the leadership of a
sixth-generation Martin,
producing instruments
that are still the most
sought after and
collectable in the world.
