Julius Fucik (1872-1916) was born in Prague, Czech Republic. He studied under Antonin Dvorák and at a young age played in military bands and later became bandmaster, a profession he practiced in various cities with many bands. In 1913 he settled in Berlin where he started his own music publishing house. As a composer Fucik is known for his light entertaining music however he also wrote chamber music, songs, choral works, a mass, a requiem and an unfinished opera. Many of his works have fallen into oblivion but many of his marches such as Einzug der Gladiatoren, Regimentskinder and Florentiner Marsch are still often played. With the concert overture Marinarella, Fucik takes us toan imaginary seaside resort on a beautiful spring day. Marinarella, a girl of the sea, accompanies us on our stroll. Leisurely walking couples on the boulevard, the murmur of the sea, fragments of a waltz melody from a café and a concert band performing a promenade concert pass you by. A fantastic opening work for any concert.

Met de concertouverture Marinarella neemt de Tsjechische componist Julius Fucik ons mee naar een denkbeeldige badplaats aan de kust op een mooie lentedag. Marinarella, een meisje van de zee, vergezelt ons op onze wandeling.Slenterende paartjes op de boulevard, het ruisen van de zee, flarden van een walsmelodie uit een café en een blaasorkest dat een promenadeconcert verzorgt passeren de revue. De vorm van deze ouverture is eenvoudig: na een snelleen luide opening volgt een langzaam, ongedwongen deel waarin enige solopassages zijn verwerkt. De afsluiting is weer krachtig en snel.

Julius Fucik (1872-1916) hat sich als Komponist vor allem mit Marschmusik wie dem Florentiner Marsch aber auch mit Werken in anderen Genres einen Namen gemacht. Mit dieser Konzertouvertüre entführt er uns auf einen Spaziergang ans Meer, in charmanter Begleitung eines Mädchens namens Marinarella. Gemütlich am Boulevard entlang schlendernd, schnappen wir verschiedene Geräusche und Konzerte auf. Ihr Publikum wird die Musik gerne auf diesen einfach strukturierten, aber sehr unterhaltsamen musikalischen Spaziergang begleiten!

Light the fire, James. We’ll take our digestive by the crackling of the hearth. Such were the thoughts that came to mind as I started listening to Guy Van Nueten’s new record. Because, yes, there is a certain aristocracy to this music. There’s the feeling of autumn and you immediately long to warm yourself on the sounds that issue from Van Nueten's bony fingers. But it could just as well be a car ride through soft rain at nightfall, where trees become freakish phantoms, and here and there a villa looms like a light beacon. Pacman is a record that makes you hunt for images, films you have seen before, feelings you have known and wish to relive, like a somewhat forbidden fruit, a secret pleasure. Melancholy? Absolutely. A vague sadness to make a person purr like a contented cat? Certainly. Yet at the same time, Van Nueten is cunning. While ensuring that his music pleases you, at the end of some compositions he’ll suddenly come up with a theme that he’ll stop abruptly, so that the notes remain hanging like snapshots of aerial acrobats in action. It is also investigative music as if Guy himself does not wish to know just where he will finish up. There is a stubbornness to it, an elegant fight perhaps between composer and pianist. It pursues you – exactly like a Pacman, in fact, chomping away at digital pieces of your heart. Yet it never seems to dissolve into thin air: time and again, right from the first listen, he makes you long to hear more. It is music that should protect a person like a secret, like an illegal fire in a forest that warms your hands and fills your head with dreams. It smells like cedar, this piano music. Or like a nice cigar offered to you by the imaginary James, who whispers: The fire is crackling, sir. Just as you like it. At which point the enchantment begins all over again.

Sometimes, music is not about anything. It exists solely for the beautiful sounds it creates and the emotions derived from that aesthetic experience. Where Words End... falls firmly into this category of music. This expressive piece makes creative use of the ranges and colors available for young bands to create a truly remarkable new work for students and directors alike. Where words end, music begins...

a delicate and delightful feature for three solo flutes or the entire flute section!

Barcarole for flutes is a flute feature for three solo flutes. (If desired, the solo can be played by six flutes.) both the first and the last section are in unison for the solo flutes while the middle section is divisi. The piece should be performed with the band accompaniment clearly in the background. If needed, the conductor should reduce the number of players to achieve proper balance.

The piece begins with a smoothly flowing melody in the oboe and fist clarinet, accompanied by a countermelody in the alto saxophones, then flows into a lyrical melody for the solo flutes. The low woodwinds and low brass punctuate the sensitive and delicate melody with a rhythmical accompaniment. The ensemble builds in a sweeping sound toward the end of the first section. The middle section contains rhythmical variety within the flute solo as well as in an agitated accompaniment before returning to the original melody. After the return of the original melody, the brass and low woodwind accompaniment builds to a point before falling back to finish with the gentle hush of the flute solo.
