Gebaseerd op een gedicht van de Duitse dichter Carl Hauptmann (laat Romantiek)

Carl Hauptmann had als kind een zeer zwakke gezondheid maar was zeer intelligent. Hij studeerde Filosofie, Psychologie en Biologie. In het laatste vak promoveerde hij. Het huwelijk zorgde voor financiele onafhankelijkheid zodat hij zich kon richten op zijn verdere studie. Hauptmann schreef enkele romans, toneelstukken, poëzie en wetenschappelijke werken.

NIGHT - Carl Hauptmann

Twilight floats above the valley's night
mists are hanging,
there's a whispering brook.
Now the covering veil is lifting quite:
come and look!
See the magic land beforeour gaze:
tall as dreams the silver mountains stand,
crossed by silent silver paths shining from a secret land.
Noble, pure, the dreaming country sleeps.
By the path the shadow black and hogh of a beech.
a wisp of a white smoke creeps to the dark'ning sky.
Where the valley is the darkest hued countless little lights shine silently.
O my soul!
Drink of solitude!

This exhilarating concert opener exemplifies joy and spirit.

When I found Born on a Fishing Boat in an issue of Poetry While You Wait in Colorado Springs, Colorado, I was immediately struck by Ms. Lius simple, evocative words. While I sat in the cafe on a cold January day waiting for my coffee, I closed my eyes and envisioned what it might be like to lie on my back in a small fishing boat and look up at the stars. I stole the free booklet of poetry and trudged home in the snow, already hearing the piano part in my mind. I would encourage anyone who is interested in learning more about Mei-Li Lius life and work to purchase her book Ten Thousand Miles from Home, published by Dragon Press (ISBN: 9780976137009). I sincerely hope I have honored her art with this setting. Born on a Fishing Boat I was born on fishing boat Lying in basket Ocean tide rocking me to sleep Papa fishing all-day and all-night Mamas washings hanging on line Above my head Misty sea washing my face Northern wind whispering to my ears Angel of sea kissing my forehead Beneath paper moon My little arms out from the cradle Out to the breeze Happy, born on fishing boat By the sea.

Harrie Janssen composed Analecta Varia in memory of Henk van Lijnschooten (1928-2006).
He has been of great influence on the Dutch music for wind instruments.
As a conductor and as a member of the jury, but above all as a prominent composer.
Consists of eight sound studies that can also be performed separately. In each part a particular orchestral aspect is the central point.

The eight parts
1. Choral: ensemble in monophonic texture.
2. Air: relatively free line patterns combined with a constant pulse.
3. Pavana: constant rhythmicity culminating in an orchestral tutti.
4. Lullaby: dissonant harmonyabove an organ point in a filigree instrumentation.
5. Chaconne: color and virtuosity combined with a rigid pasacaglian theme.
6. Interlude: antithesis woodwind/brass and followed by a synthesis of the before.
7. Fugue: ensemble in a polyphonic texture.
8. Epilogue: final canto in a preponderating strong dynamic, where a constant euphony has to be pursued.

Analecta Varia bestaat uit acht klankstudies die ook afzonderlijk utgevoerd kunnen worden. In iedere deel wordt een bepaald orkestraal facet centraal gesteld.
Harrie Janssen componeerde Analecta Varia ter nagedachtenis aan Henkvan Lijnschooten (1928-2006). Henk van Lijnschooten heeft zich bijzonder verdienstelijk gemaakt voor de Nederlandse blaasmuziek, als dirigent, jurylid maar vooral als zeer toonaangevend componist.

1. Chorale: Samenspelin een homofone textuur.
2. Air: Relatief vrij lijnenspel gecombineerd met een constante puls.
3. Pavana: Constante ritmiek culminerend in een orkestraal tutti.
4. Lullaby: Dissonate samenklankenboven een orgelpunt in een filigraine instrumentatie.
5. Chaconne: Kleur en virtuositeit gecombineerd met een rigide pasacaglia thema.
6. Interlude: Tegenstelling Hout/Koper en een synthese hiervan.
7. Fuga: Samenspel in een polyfone textuur.
8. Epilogue: Slotzang in een overwegend sterke dynamiek, waarbij een constante welluidendheid nagestreefd dient te worden.
