Laudate Regem - or Praise the King! After a reign of 33 years, Beatrix, Queen of the Netherlands, stepped down from the throne to make way for her eldest son Willem-Alexander. For this special occasion, Matthias van Nispen tot Pannerden haswritten a majestic work for the Royal Netherlands Air Force Orchestra, which sounded at precisely the moment the new king left the Nieuwe Kerk after his inauguration. A festive work for a memorable occasion!

Laudate Regem, Lof aan de koning! Deze muziek werd gespeeld op het moment dat de koninklijke familie de Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam verliet, en het werd door de Kapel van de Koninklijke Luchtmacht tevens gespeeld tijdens de NationaleHerdenkingsplechtigheid op 4 mei. Na een korte beginfanfare volgt een prachtige, gedragen melodie waarin even muzikaal verwezen wordt naar het Wilhelmus. Naar het eind toe volgt een overweldigend slot. Met dit werk is het altijd even opnieuw 30 april2013...

A sinister legend hangs over the Borgia family, a legend of corruption, abuse of power, orgies, sex and murder. These rumors proliferated especially during the papacy of Alexander VI, a descendant of the family, who was even called the Antichrist. On his death, contemporary witnesses reported that the devil himself prowled around the death chamber and a black dog run along the corridors of the Vatican as his emissary. One might say that this Borgia pope, who ruled together with his family with the greatest brutality, became demonized. Unscrupulousness, poison-toting, incest and other malice are to this day the hallmarks of this pontiff. 2. NEPOTISM Rodrigo Borgia was elected Pope on August 11, 1492. From the very start, the new pope was prepared to use any means to eliminate his opponents, either through the infamous “Borgia poison” or by excommunication and execution. His son Cesare, who wanted little to do with the church, was appointed cardinal against his will. Alessandro Farnese, broth of Giulia Farnese, the Pope's mistress, also became a cardinal. Numerous Spaniards were brought into the country and were appointed to ecclesiastical posts. This infuriated the opponents of Alexander VI. The Dominican Girolamo Savonarola from Florence demanded the removal of the Pope. He was tortured and banned. Giuliano della Rovere wanted to convene councils to depose the Pope, which Alexander managed to prevent through artful political maneuverings. Through great brutality, brillian political skill and power games, this pope was able to achieve his goal of leaving for his children a great legacy. Alexander VI constantly changed his allies and always acted unscrupulously to improve his financial situation and expand his sphere of influence. At the centre of the second movement of this work is the medieval hymn Dies Irae (Day of Wrath), which acts as a warning in the background condemning the Pope's actions.

Composer Modest Moussorgsky (1839-1881) came from the prosperous environment of Russian nobility. In 1865, after his officer’s education, he joined the guard’s regiment in St. Petersburg. Here he met a number of well-known colleague-composers, including Balakirev, Cui, Rimsky- Korsakov and Borodin. They strived to develop a “classical style” of composing while at the same time retaining a strong Russian influence. His opera Boris Godunov tells the tale of Boris, who with the support of the people, declared himself Tsar, but totally fell short of the role. The opera became popular in the re-orchestrated version produced by Rimsky-Korsakov in 1896. Tohru Takahashi has usedthe beautiful musical themes of this opera in Selections from Boris Godunov - a captivating work for concert band.

Moussorgsky’s opera Boris Godunov - gebaseerd op het gelijknamige drama van Aleksandr Pushkin (waarin Boris Godunov zichzelf met steun van het volk uitroept tot tsaar, maar in deze rol compleet tekortschiet) - werd populairin de bewerking die Rimsky-Korsakov in 1896 maakte. De oorspronkelijke partituur van Moussorgsky staat echter vol originele vondsten en vooruitstrevende harmonische, melodische en instrumentale details. Tohru Takahashi gebruiktede prachtige muzikale thematiek van deze opera in Selections from Boris Godunov - een boeiend werk voor harmonieorkest.

Sein Meisterwerk, die Oper Boris Godunow, schrieb Mussorgski auf der Grundlage des gleichnamigen Dramas von Alexander Puschkin. In diesem Stück erklärt sich Boris Godunow mit Unterstützung des Volkes selbst zum Zaren, versagt aber kläglich in dieser Rolle. Das Werk ist voll von einzigartigen Ideen und damals sehr innovativen harmonischen, melodischen und instrumentalen Details. Tohru Takahashi verwendete in Selections from Boris Godunov die wunderschönen musikalischen Themen der Oper - ein bezauberndes Werk für Blasorchester.

Compositeur essentiellement autodidacte, Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) descend d’une famille aisée de la noblesse russe. Son chef-d’oeuvre lyrique Boris Godounov est basé sur la tragédie d’Alexandre Pouchkine, dans laquelle Boris Godounov, tsar autoproclamé et soutenu par le peuple faillit son rôle. En 1896, l’opéra connaît le succès dans une version retouchée par Rimski-Korsakov. La version originale de Moussorgski contient cependant des idées uniques, des détails harmoniques, mélodiques et instrumentaux innovateurs. Pour réaliser cette pièce captivante pour Orchestre d’Harmonie, Tohru Takahashi a rassemblé les superbes thèmes musicaux de l’opéra.

Compositore essenzialmente autodidatta, Modest Mussorgski (1839-1881) discende da una famiglia agiata della nobilt russa. Il suo capolavoro lirico, Boris Godunov, si basa sulla tragedia di Alexander Puschkin, nella quale Boris Godunov, proclamatosi zar e sostenuto dal popolo, fallisce nel suo ruolo. Nel 1896, l’opera conosce il successo in una versione ritoccata da Rimski Korsakov. La versione originale di Mussorgski contiene idee uniche, dettagli armonici, melodici e strumenti innovativi. Per trascrivere questo brano per banda, Tohru Takahashi ha raccolto i superlativi temi musicali dell’opera.
