This work was composed as a commission by the Aikodai Meiden High School Symphonic Band, for the 50th anniversary of their annual concert; the title A Golden Jubilation is a reference to this. The close friendship between Hiroki Ito, the conductor of the band, and Satoshi Yagisawa resulted in this brilliant and exhilarating fanfare of approximately two minutes in length; the piece is ideal to use as a concert opener. The original composition was arranged for an extremely wide range of instruments and a band of 200 musicians, including a separate 'banda', harp and a variety of special instruments. This new version has been rescored for standard band instrumentation by the composer himself.

Anton Karas grew up in a modest household in Vienna and became a self taught zither vituoso. He wrote the legendary Harry Lime Theme for the 1949 British film noir The Third Man. The melody became so popular, many people began calling The Third Man “The Zither Movie”! Toshio Mashima carefully turns this typically Viennese melody into a creative piece for concert band.

Anton Karas, der aus einfachen Wiener Verhältnissen stammte und es als Autodidakt zu großer Virtuosität an der Zither brachte, schrieb das legendäre Harry-Lime-Thema“ für den Agentenfilm Der dritte Mann. Die Melodie war so populär, dass manche den Film gar The Zither Film“ nannten. Toshio Mashima setzte die stimmungsvolle, typisch wienerische Melodie geschickt für Blasorchester um.

Tout le monde se souvient du Troisième Homme (1949) et de cette étrange et fascinante musique qui fut la révélation du film. Anton Karas (1906-1985), son compositeur et interprète, traversa le monde du spectacle comme un véritable météore. Sa bande originale jouée la cithare lui apporta la gloire et la richesse. Le thème du film se classa durant onze semaines en tête des meilleures ventes de disques aux États-Unis entre avril et juillet 1950. Le film fut couronné du Grand prix du Festival de Cannes 1949 et de l’Oscar de la meilleure photographie 1951.

Il film Il Terzo Uomo (1949) è ricordato anche per l’affascinante colonna sonora che fu una vera e propria rivelazione. Anton Karas (1906-1985), compositore ed interprete, attraversò il mondo dello spettacolo come una meteora. La colonna sonora originale, eseguita alla cetra, gli portò gloria e ricchezza. Il tema del film fu in vetta alle classifi che delle vendite di dischi negli Stati Uniti tra aprile e giugno 1950 e il film ottenne il massimo riconoscimento a Cannes (Grand Prix du Festival) nel 1949.

Rosa Gallica has been written to commemorate the centenary of the First World War. The work focuses largely on France as a lot of the fighting took place there. With the title Rosa Gallica (French rose), the composer wishes to emphasize the poetic image of the rose. The stem represents the years gone by - such as those taken up by the First World War - and the thorns refer to the conflict and the pain that the victims had to endure. The rose itself forms the picture of beauty - and symbolizes opening up to a peaceful world. The piece depicts France from the end of the 19th century through to its role at the heart of the First World War and beyond. A spectacular and dramatic new work by Jacob de Haan.
