Par DE HAAN JAN. The Music Factory was written to introduce beginner players to ensemble playing as early as possible. Thanks to the low grade of difficulty of this piece this it is possible to play in a ‘real band’ after only a few lessons. Because of the four-part instrumentation, The Music Factory is suitable for smaller strengths, taking into account that it is important to divide parts evenly among the players. Also includes an ad-lib keyboard/piano part to support the ensemble. / Niveau : 1 / Musique légère originale / Date parution : 1905-06-23/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Par STALTER TODD. My Victory Won, by Todd Stalter, explores melodic and metaphorical aspects of the hymn, 'Be Thou My Vision.' Taking inspiration from the little-known third verse of the hymn, the bold, percussive introduction soon gives way to a contemplative section featuring unique and interesting timbres, and a passage for solo flute. The work ends in a triumphant, unabashed burst of energy and affirmation. (3:56) / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Par HOSAY JAMES L.. At the end of the Sixties and the beginning of the Seventies, slowly but surely, a new exciting music style arose in pop music. Pop groups enlarged the musical spectrum by combining jazz harmonies with rock ’n’ roll rhythms. These experiments are now known as ‘fusion’. Fusion Factory combines elements of early fusion with modern fusion sounds. Listen to the excellent result! / Niveau : 4 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par DE HAAN JACOB. The Blues Factory dépeint l’avènement et le lent déclin de l’industrie textile de l’Est des Pays-Bas. Cette bipolarité se traduit dans l’oeuvre par un blues lent, authentique et insouciant, suivi d’un blues aux inflexions de jazz-rock. Mais de la nostalgie et de la résignation renaissent peu à peu l’espoir et l’envie de se tourner vers l’avenir qui, au travers d’un accord final brillant, semble optimiste et prometteur. / Niveau : 3 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Brass Band

Par BALAZS ARPAD. Television viewers of nearly a hundred countries have experienced Árpád Balázs's touching melodies. The series of cartoons have neither dialogue nor text: the music presents the amiable and entertaining adventures of the rabbit with chequered ears and its friends. Balázs has rephrased and developed the well-known melodies and as a result a ''children's story symphony'' of seven movements has been created in which, in contrast with Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf, there is no narrator but the instruments themselves represent the story-tellers. The composer has again associated the groups of instruments with one another in a colourful and varied manner, skilfully alternating the modes of solo, chamber orchestra and orchestra. Movements I, II, IV and VII represent a ''short suite'' that can be independently performed, thus due to its duration of four minutes and easier level, ensembles with more modest opportunities can also perform it. The most well-known parts of the cartoon series music - the main title and the ending - are included in both versions./ Répertoire / Concert Band
