Conquest Of Paradise is the title song from the film of the same name staring Gérard Dépardieu as the explorer Christopher Columbus, on his quest to discover America. The title music to the film, composed by Vangelis, was released as a single, which sold over 4 million copies and was rightfully awarded a Golden Globe. Add a little drama to any concert with this stirring arrangement.

Conquest of Paradise werd geschreven voor de film 1492. De Griekse muzikant en componist Vangelis is bij het grote publiek vooral bekend vanwege zijn soundtrack voor de film Chariots of Fire en zijn sucsesvolleVoices. Deze hero sche muziek, in een arangement van Ron Sebregts, brengt de stemming er beslist in!

Die Rockhymne Conquest of Paradise von Vangelis wurde zunächst als das Lied bekannt, das Henry Maskes letzten Boxkampf begleitete. Nun hat sie aber längst auch die Fußballwelt für sich erobert. Die heroische Musik zaubert auch in Ron Sebregts Blasorchester-Bearbeitung 100 Prozent Stadionstimmung herbei!

Pour célébrer les 500 ans de la découverte de l'Amérique, Ridley Scott réalisa 1492, Christophe Colomb avec Gérard Depardieu dans le rôle-titre. La musique fut confiée Vangelis, compositeur grec de renommée internationale, connu du grand public pour les bandes originales des films Les Chariots de Feu et Blade Runner, entre autres. Habité par le sujet, Vangelis réalise une bande son exceptionnelle mêlant composantes électroniques et mélodiques avec une texture ethnique et chorale. L'ensemble des lignes harmoniques trouve son apogée dans le sublime Conquest Of Paradise ( la conquête du Paradis), une ode magnifique la découverte et la liberté.

Vernon Park, Stockport’s oldest park, was created on land donated by Lord Vernon (George John Warren). It was built by poor mill workers who called it pinch-belly park and opened on 20th September 1858. Comprising twenty-one acres, it houses a museum, a bandstand, ornamental fountains, a fernery, rockery, borders and sunken rose garden as well terraced walkways that overlook the river and weir. The piece depicts a solitary walker engrossed in his own thoughts on a winter’s day, the landscape, and the park’s Victorian past.

At the very end of the piece a reminder of the park’s Victorian origins can be detected in a quote from Elgar’s Salut d’amour of 1899, which may well have been played by a band in the bandstand. Stockport market celebrated its 750th anniversary in 2010. It dated back to September 1260 when a Royal Charter allowed Robert de Stokeport, the Mayor, to hold a weekly market within the defensive walls of the Norman Castle on the present site of Castle Yard.

The Glass Umbrella was a popular name given to the 1861 covered market built of timber, glass and iron - nine bays with open sides and a glass canopy. In 1912, one bay was removed to enable electric trams and trolley buses to turn a sharp corner.

The piece depicts a lively market day, the multiculturalism of the present day and the old cries of pick and pay without delay. The bells of St Mary’s Church are depicted by a cascading peel tuned to the ten bells of the church tower, and a fleeting reference to John Wainwright’s famous Christmas hymn Christians Awake, and the Westminster chimes striking the hour from St Mary’s, bring to piece to a conclusion. Separate parts are provided for recorder and oboe.
