The European Hymn is the hymn not only of the European Union but of Europe in a broader sense. The melody has been taken from the Ninth Symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1823.In the last movement of this symphony Beethoven set music to the 'Ode to Joy' by Friedrich von Schiller from 1785. This poem sprang from Schiller's idealistic vision of men who become brothers - a vision Beethoven shared with him.In 1972 the Council of Europe adopted Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' as its anthem. The well-known conductor Herbert von Karajan was commissioned to arrange three instrumental versions - for solo piano, wind orchestra and symphony orchestra. Without words, in the universal language of music, the anthem is an expression of the idealistic values of freedom, peace and solidarity which Europe stands for.In 1985 the heads of state and government adopted the hymn as the EU's official anthem. It does not replace the national anthems of the member states, but rather celebrates common values as well as unity in diversity.The score of this offical anthem is exclusively available from the Schott publishing house.(1 Piccolo-Flote, 2 Floten, 2 Oboen, 2 Fagotte, 1 Kontrafagott, 1 Klarinette in Es, 3 Klarinetten in B, 1 Bass-Klarinette in B, 2 Alt-Saxophone in Es, 1 Tenor-Saxophon in B, 1 Bariton-Saxophon in Es, 3 Trompeten in B, 2 Kornette in B, 2 Horner in F, 3 Posaunen, 2 Flugelhorner in B, 3 Tenorhorner in B, 1 Bariton, 2 Tuben, Pauken, Kontrabass).

The American state of Arkansas is often called 'the natural state' and 'the land of opportunity.' This piece belongs to Jacob de Haan's series of musical montages depicting various states in the USA, including Dakota, Oregon and Virginia. Arkansas is a suite in three movements based on a well-known native American folk song. It appears as a ballade, variations and finally accompanies a jazzy rhythm. The folk song helps provide continuity throughout the three movements. A perfect addition to any concert.Arkansas kent meerdere bijnamen. Zo verwijst 'The Natural State', maar ook 'The Land of Opportunity' naar deze staat. Na Dakota, Oregon en Virginia voegt Jacob de Haan met het concertwerk Arkansas wederom een titel toe aan zijn serieover Amerikaanse staten. Het is een suite uit drie delen, gebaseerd op een bekend volkslied uit deze contreien. Iedere keer weer verschijnt het herkenbare lied als een rode draad. Helemaal, fragmentarisch, als ballad maar ookin variaties en jazzritmes. Arkansas: drie delen vol afwisseling en speelplezier!Der amerikanische Bundesstaat Arkansas tragt den Spitznamen The Natural State oder The Land of Opportunity. Dieses Konzertwerk fügt sich in die Reihe der von Jacob de Haan vertonten amerikanischen Staaten und Landschaften, darunter Dakota, Oregon und Virginia. Es ist eine Suite in drei Satzen auf der Grundlage von einem bekannten Volkslied aus Arkansas, die sich - mal vollstandig, mal fragmentarisch, als Ballade, in Variationen oder auch in jazzigen Rhythmen als roter Faden durch die drei Satze dieser abwechslungsreichen Komposition zieht.Arkansas, oeuvre de concert en trois mouvements, signee Jacob de Haan, s'inscrit dans la lignee des autres oeuvres du compositeur consacrees a la description d'etats americains (Dakota, Oregon et Virginia). La trame de cette suite s'articule autour d'une celebre melodie traditionnelle qui sera reprise sous la forme d'une ballade, d'un canon et d'une variation jazzy.

Mechthild of Magdeburg, born around 1207, died around 1282 in the monastery of Helfta near Eisleben, lived and worked as a Beguine in Magdeburg for about 40 years. Born in a castle in the vicinity of the city, she joined the poverty movement when she was about 20 years old and chose the descent from the castle to the city. She is known to this day for her book The Flowing Light of the Godhead, which she wrote in Low German, the language of the people and the poor. Here, the bridal mysticism of the Old Testament Song of Songs combines with the poetry of courtly minnesong to create a new poetic creation that gives her immediate experience of God an outwardly tangible form. Mechthild's book is considered the most important example of German-language mysticism before Meister Eckhart.Weakened by hostility and illness, she retired to Helfta Monastery around 1270. Here she wrote or dictated the last chapter of her book - and experienced an unexpected bloom of old age!

This composition survives in the sources as a wedding song, even though the occasion it was written for is not known. It is stylistically close to the Symphoniae sacrae I, sharing its exquisite scoring with the last composition in the set (Bucinate in neomenia tuba/Jubilate Deo) with concertante instrumental parts for cornett and trumpet (or two cornetts). The text, taken from Proverbs, has an opening verse in triple meter which recurs in the middle (shortened) and at the end of the composition in the style of a ritornello, then commonly found in Italy. This verse ends with a characteristically dissonant transition for the upper instrumental parts to the final chord - as the key message of the composition. Score available separately - see item CA.2045300.

Sea Songs, commissioned jointly by Ars Nova Copenhagen and Glasgow Concert Halls, is a kind of sequel to Martland's Street Songs (originally written for the Kings Singers and Evelyn Glennie). As with the earlier piece, Martland made use of to the library of the English Folk Song and Dance Society at Cecil Sharp House in north London.I wanted specifically to find texts that were not just the usual nautical heave-ho sort of thing, but instead explored the dangers and hardships still being experienced by sailors as recently as the early 19th century. I was also very happy to see in these texts the sense of camaraderie and mutual support that existed between the sailors. (Steve Martland)Dance to your Daddy sets the scene of a sailor's wife at home, dandling her baby son and singing to him about his daddy away fishing, and about the future. Both the tune and the words come from the Northumberland area around Newcastle. This song is very well known in the UK and gave the title to a famous television series When the boat comes in.Fire Down Below is about the effects of fire - a constant danger on board wooden ships. At the end of this song the words take on an extended meaning: Fire in our hearts for the friends that we love.The Dead Horse is about the initial month of work without pay in which all seamen had to take part. They referred to it as the dead horse - hence the expression to flog a dead horse when something is a waste of time. The seamen resented this unpaid time, and the text expresses their frustrations metaphorically by listing what they would do to the horse! The music's frantic gallop alludes to the horse's desperation.Although The Sea Martyrs presents itself as a ballad, this text has a more literary feel, and unlike the other songs it doesn't include a chorus refrain. It concerns the sailors' lack of pay, the consequences of asking for pay (being hanged!), and the poverty of their families at home. The poem portrays the sailors' deaths as an almost religious sacrifice to help future seamen.At the end of the work, the opening of Dance to your Daddy returns as a kind of descant, sung by an angel calling to the hanged men. Paul Hillier, 2012.

Isaac Watts (1674-1748) wrote the lyrics of There is a land of pure delight and is known as the Father of English Hymnody. Watts was for the English hymn as Ambrose was for the medieval Latin hymn and what Martin Luther was for the German chorale. He wrote about 750 songs, and some of them survide the ravahes of time. (Joy To The World, When I survey the wondrous cross, I sing the Mighty Power of God) There is a Land of Pure Delight is usually in English-speaking areas sung on Luther Orlando Emerson's melody ('Ascription'). Here is used a traditional English melody ('Mendip'). There is a land of pure delight Wheresaints immortal Reign. Infinite day excludes the night, And pleasures banish pain .. Isaac Watts (1674-1748) schreef de tekst van ‘There is a land of pure delight’, en staat bekend als de 'Father of English Hymnody' (Vader van het gezang). Watts was voor het Engelse gezang wat Ambrosius was voor de middeleeuwseLatijnse hymne in de getijden en wat Maarten Luther was voor het Duitse koraal. Hij schreef ongeveer 750 liederen, waarvan een aantal de tand des tijds overleefden. (Joy to the World, When I survey the wondrous cross, I singthe mighty Power of God) 'There is a Land of Pure Delight' wordt in Engelstalige gebieden meestal op een melodie van Luther Orlando Emerson gezongen ('Ascription').

Although the music of the younger Haydn brother was highly regarded by his contemporaries, his music was forgotten in the 19th century and still waits to be rediscovered. One of his more well-known works is the central piece on the present CD, the German Mass Hier liegt vor deiner Majestat MH 560 (Here before thy majesty), a work which is musically the epitome of south-German/Austrian Catholicism and which to this day is still a part of church music practice in this region.

This lively, attractive march originates from one of the best-known operettas by Franz Lehár, Die lustige Witwe (The Merry Widow), a work that brought the composer enormous success. The operetta features many lovely arias, and catchy dances, but also subtle passages and wonderful singable tunes. One of those is Ja, das Studium der Weiber ist schwer (‘The study of women is difficult’), a tune incorporated in the trio of this march. Lehár obviously had high expectations for it, giving it a prominent place within the operetta. He also used it as an effective finale piece.Deze levendige mars komt uit Die lustige Witwe, een van de bekendste operettes van Franz Lehár. Ja, das Studium der Weiber ist schwer is een van de talrijke, goed in het gehoor liggende liederen uit deze operette. Wilvan der Beek verwerkte het in het triodeel van deze mars. Lehár was zich goed bewust van de uitwerking van deze melodie. Hij zette het niet alleen op een prominente plaats in zijn operette, maar hij beëindigde de operette er ookmee. In ieder geval misstaat de bewerking van Wil van der Beek op geen enkele plaats in uw concertprogramma!Dieser lebhafte, attraktive Marsch stammt aus Die lustige Witwe, einer der bekanntesten Operetten von Franz Lehár, die dem Komponisten großen Ruhm einbrachte. Die Operette enthält viele reizvolle Arien und eingängige Tänze, aber auch feinfühlige Passagen und sehr gut zu singende Lieder. Eines davon ist zweifellos Ja, das Studium der Weiber ist schwer, das im Trioteil dieses Marsches verarbeitet wurde. Lehár war sich der Wirkung dieser Melodie wohl bewusst, da er ihr einen prominenten Platz in seiner Operette einräumte und sie auch als wirkungsvolles Schlussstück einsetzte.Cette ravissante marche est extraite de La Veuve joyeuse, l‘une des opérettes les plus célèbres de Franz Lehár. Le septuor Ah ! les femmes, femmes, femmes occupe une place prépondérante dans l’oeuvre, et est majestueusement repris en final. Wil van der Beek a réalisé un excellent arrangement de cette marche pour orchestre d’harmonie qui clôturera avec exception votre programmation de concert. Questa marcia, estratta da La Vedova allegra, è una delle operette più celebri di Franz Lehár. Lehár riserva un ruolo di primo piano alla conosciutissima aria, E’ scabroso le donne studiar e, consapevole dell’effetto che avrebbe prodotto questa melodia, la ripropone nella parte finale . Wil van der Beek ha realizzato un arrangiamento che trover spazio in ogni programma da concerto.
