Legend has it that Edith Piaf, one of the greatest stars of the French music scene, was born under a lamp post in the streets of Paris and spent much of her lonely childhood roaming the streets, singing here and there in front of a fascinated audience. Out of the poor streets developed a singer who was to become the darling of French cabaret. A Tribute to Edith Piaf is a wonderful arrangement for concert band of four of the most well known songs of this romantic, spontaneous, desperate and everlasting legend.Naar verluidt werd een van de grootste sterren uit de Franse muziekwereld onder een lantaarnpaal in de Parijse rue de Belleville geboren. Na een eenzame jeugd, waarin ze veel over straat zwierf en voor mensen zong, werd Edith Gassionontdekt door Louis Leplee. Van hem kreeg ze haar bijnaam, La mome Piaf (de kleine mus). A Tribute to Edith Piaf is een prachtig arrangement voor harmonieorkest van Roland Kernen. Het omvat vier van de bekendste chansonsvan deze tegelijkertijd romantische, spontane, wanhopige en onsterfelijke legende: Milord, Hymne a l'Amour, Mon Manege a Moi en La Vie en Rose.Die Legende um Edith Piaf, den Spatz von Paris besagt, dass sie aus armsten Verhaltnissen kam und ihre Karriere auf der Strasse begann. Aus der armen Strassensangerin wurde die wohl beruhmteste Chansonsangerin aller Zeiten. A Tribute to Edith Piaf ist ein wundervolles Medley fur Blasorchester von Roland Kernen aus vier der bekanntesten Lieder dieser unsterblichen Legende. Le 19 decembre 1915, Paris a vu naitre sous un lampadaire de la rue de Belleville (si l'on en croit la legende), une etoile de la chanson francaise. Enfant delaissee, Edith Gassion sillonne seule les quartiers de Paris, en chantant ici et la devant un public fascine, avant d'etre remarquee par Louis Leplee qui l'accueille de son cabaret et qui pose sur cette voix unique un nom voue a l'immortalite, la mome Piaf (FAM. moineau), symbole de la fragilite physique du personnage. Mais du haut de ses 1,47 m, elle seduit le Tout-Paris de l'entre-deux guerres puis cristallise autour d'elle le public international. La mome Piaf devient alors definitivement Edith Piaf, lacoqueluche des intellectuels, l'amie des grands chansonniers tels que Maurice Chevalier, Mistinguett, Lucienne Delisle et Andre Claveau. Artiste celebree dans le monde entier, femme tourmentee et dechiree, Edith Piaf cessera de chanter le 11 octobre 1963.Avec A Tribute to Edith Piaf (Hommage a Edith Piaf), Roland Kernen signe un superbe arrangement pour Orchestre d'Harmonie de quatre des plus celebres chansons de cette legende immortelle, romantique, spontanee et desesperee : Milord, Hymne a l'Amour, Mon Manege a Moi et La Vie en Rose.

In the tripartite 'Cowboy Suite' Alan Laken takes us to the Wild West, the domain of cowboys, indians, trappers and other fortune hunters. Around 1890 the west coast of America was reached, which in effect meant the end of the Wild West. Its stories, however, survived and have been a source of inspiration for many books, films, and, of course, music. Some characters, such as Jesse James, Billy the Kid, and Buffalo Bill are forever linked to these tales. In the 'Cowboy Suite' we first hear the 'Hoedown'. At the end of an exhausting workday the labourers used to lay down their tools, among others the 'hoes' and spontaneously began to play music on the instruments which they then possessed (guitars, fiddles, and banjos) and to dance. After being jolted on the 'Wagon Trail' we reach the third part, the 'Cowboy Roundup'. In this last part it becomes clear that as a cattle driver it is imperative to stay firmly seated in the saddle. As the cattle are rounded up, i.e. driven together, spectacular things happen. In de driedelige 'Cowboy Suite' neemt Alan Laken ons mee naar het 'Wilde Westen', het domein van cowboys, indianen, pelsjagers en andere gelukzoekers. Rond 1890, werd de westkust van Amerika bereikt, dit betekende het eindevan het Wilde Westen. Maar de verhalen bleven en waren een bron voor vele boeken, films en natuurlijk muziek. Enkele personages die onlosmakelijk verbonden zijn met deze verhalen zijn: Jesse James, Billy the Kid, en BuffaloBill. In de 'Cowboy Suite' horen we eerst de ‘Hoedown’. Aan het einde van een zware werkdag legden de landarbeiders hun werktuig, o.a. de 'Hoe' (schoffel) neer en begonnen met de dan beschikbare instrumenten (Gitaar, Fiddleen Banjo) spontaan te musiceren en te dansen. In de ‘Wagon Trial’ hobbelen we naar het derde deel, de ‘Cowboy Roundup’. Dat je als veedrijver goed in je zadel moet zitten blijkt wel in het laatste deel. Tijdens de 'Roundup'(het bijeendrijven van het vee) gaat het er spectaculair aan toe.

There exists already and abundant supply of original compositions and arrangements suitable for performance on large and comprehensive organs, but many organists who have only a small instrument at their disposal in country churches often have some difficulty in finding short and easy voluntaries suitable for their own use and the instruction of their pupils. It is hoped that The Village Organist may supply this want, so much felt by that valuable and zealous class of church-workers to whom the work is inscribed. The editors have endeavoured to bring together a collection of pieces which they trust will prove to be at once simple, without being uninteresting,and effective where the instrumental resources are limited.

Aribert Reimann's idea to arrange the lieder of Franz Liszt for baritone and string quartet goes back to his collaboration with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, recording some of these lieder for the German broadcasting company formerly known as Sender Freies Berlin (SFB). Since then, Reimann has continued to be fascinated by Liszt's thrilling harmony and unconventional treatment of the voice. Here, he has compiled a cycle containing seven lieder from Liszt's middle and late periods, arranged so that each song is the logical continuation of its predecessor. Liszt's fundamental harmony has been retained, but the registers have been altered to such an extent that they appear in a completely new light.

Matthew Whittall's preface to Bright Ferment (2019): I have a complicated history with the string quartet. Actually, it's not that complicated. I spent months writing a huge one in my early twenties and hastily withdrew it after a long delayed premiere, vowing never to write another. In a typical case of karmic retribution, my fear of the form would eventually be overcome by the unrefusable offer to write the compulsory piece for the Banff International String Quartet Competition in my native Canada. The short duration requested, about nine minutes, also felt like a good way to wade gingerly back into the medium. The title was originally just a nice-sounding pair of words that surfaced in a brainstorming session with fellow composer Alex Freeman over an injudicious amount of fermented barley. When I looked it up later, I found that it was a phrase of older coinage, seemingly used more for poetic resonance than any fixed meaning. Ferment by itself denotes a state of confusion, change or lack of order. With bright, it takes on a more positive connotation with regard to society and creativity: a wild profusion of ideas barely checked by reason. (It may not actually mean that, but it describes this piece nicely, so let's go with it.) Fermentation in its trendy culinary usage is also hinted at via a recurrent percolating device of scattered pizzicati. As one may guess from the tone of this introduction, there is little attempt at gravity in Bright Ferment, the only means by which I felt I could sidestep the historical and expressive weight of the string quartet genre. Styles, gestures and moods are tossed around, cross-cut and abandoned in stream-of-consciousness fashion, connected by little except an intuitive sense of rightness in their juxtaposition. If the piece acquires depth in spite of me, it will only be because its disparate parts amplify and strengthen each other simply by being together - much like the ensemble itself. Bright Ferment was commissioned by the Banff Centre for the Arts and Creativity and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, with additional funding from the Americas Society (New York), for the 2019 Banff International String Quartet Competition. Duration: ca. 9 minutes.

Snow Suite is the soundtrack to childhood’s winter adventures. Tasting snowflakes, watching a snowstorm through the living room window, or falling in the soft snow is always exciting and sparks the imagination. Each movement of this suite paints a scene. In Snowflakes, the pizzicato notes depict flakes landing on a nose or finger long enough to be marveled at before melting away. Snowstorm’s perpetual motion feel, with dramatic changes in dynamics, draws the listener into imagining wild winter winds. Finally, after the storm, children and adults alike fall into the powdery snow creating charming and delightful Snow Angels.Performance NotesMost students are adept at pizzicato by the grade 1 orchestra level, and this piece provides the opportunity to review pizzicato technique for good tone. Recommended pizzicato technique includes the thick part of the fingertip over the fingerboard, producing tone with depth and allowing the resonance to create a rich orchestra sound. The detaché bowing is truly detached in Snowstorm with contrasting legato bow strokes in Snow Angels.For schools that encourage writing across the curriculum, teachers may encourage students to write a short imaginative story about the snow themes in this music. STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts, and Mathematics) lessons may include snowflake crystal structures and snowstorm weather patterns.
