England enjoys a rich folk song tradition. Composers such as Cecil Sharp and Vaughan Williams rekindled an interest in this heritage at the beginning of the 20th century by arranging numerous songs, some of which were transcribed for the _x001F_first time. Philip Sparke selected three songs from the 18th and 19 century for his Three Folk Song Miniatures: the _x001F_shermanâ??s song Dance to Your Daddy, the love song O Waly, Waly and Bobby Shafto, a song from the northwest of England.Engeland heeft een rijke traditie op het gebied van volksmuziek die door de jaren heen een beetje in de vergetelheid raakte. Componisten als Cecil Sharp en Vaughan Williams brachten hierin verandering door voor het eerst talloze liederen bundelen en soms zelfs voor het eerst tenoteren in modern notenschrift. Philip Sparke koos voor dit werk drie liederen uit de 18e en 19e eeuw: het visserslied Dance to Your Daddy, het liefdeslied O Waly, Waly en Bobby Shafto, een lied uit het Noord-Westen van Engeland.England kann auf eine lange Volkslied-Tradition zuru?ckblicken.

I n 1803, President Thomas Jefferson sent Meriwether Lewis and William Clarks Corps of Discovery to find a water route to the Pacific and explore the uncharted West. He believed woolly mammoths, erupting volcanoes, and mountains of pure salt awaited them. What they found was no less mind-boggling: some 300 species unknown to science, nearly 50 Indian tribes, and the Rockies. I have been a student of the Lewis and Clark expedition, which Thomas Jefferson called the Voyage of Discovery, for as long as I can remember. This astonishing journey, lasting more than two-and-a-half years, began and ended in St. Louis, Missouri and took the travelers up more than a few rivers in their quest to find the Northwest Passage to the Pacific Ocean. In an age without speedy communication, this was akin to space travel out of radio range in our own time: no one knew if, indeed, the party had even survived the voyage for more than a year. Most of them were soldiers. A few were French-Canadian voyageurs hired trappers and explorers, who were fluent in French (spoken extensively in the region, due to earlier explorers from France) and in some of the Indian languages they might encounter. One of the voyageurs, a man named Pierre Cruzatte, also happened to be a better-than-average fiddle player. In many respects, the travelers were completely on their own for supplies and survival, yet, incredibly, only one of them died during the voyage. Jefferson had outfitted them with food, weapons, medicine, and clothing and along with other trinkets, a box of 200 jaw harps to be used in trading with the Indians. Their trip was long, perilous to the point of near catastrophe, and arduous. The dream of a Northwest Passage proved ephemeral, but the northwestern quarter of the continent had finally been explored, mapped, and described to an anxious world. When the party returned to St. Louis in 1806, and with the Louisiana Purchase now part of the United States, they were greeted as national heroes. I have written a sizeable number of works for wind ensemble that draw their inspiration from the monumental spaces found in the American West. Four of them (Arches, The Yellowstone Fires, Glacier, and Zion) take their names, and in large part their being, from actual national parks in Utah, Wyoming, and Montana. But Upriver, although it found its voice (and its finale) in the magnificent Columbia Gorge in Oregon, is about a much larger region. This piece, like its brother works about the national parks, doesnt try to tell a story. Instead, it captures the flavor of a certain time, and of a grand adventure. Cast in one continuous movement and lasting close to fourteen minutes, the piece falls into several subsections, each with its own heading: The Dream (in which Jeffersons vision of a vast expanse of western land is opened); The Promise, a chorale that re-appears several times in the course of the piece and represents the seriousness of the presidential mission; The River; The Voyageurs; The River II ; Death and Disappointment; Return to the Voyage; and The River III . The music includes several quoted melodies, one of which is familiar to everyone as the ultimate river song, and which becomes the through-stream of the work. All of the quoted tunes were either sung by the men on the voyage, or played by Cruzattes fiddle. From various journals and diaries, we know the men found enjoyment and solace in music, and almost every night encampment had at least a bit of music in it. In addition to Cruzatte, there were two other members of the party who played the fiddle, and others made do with singing, or playing upon sticks, bones, the ever-present jaw harps, and boat horns. From Lewis journals, I found all the tunes used in Upriver: Shenandoah (still popular after more than 200 years), Vla bon vent, Soldiers Joy, Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier, Come Ye Sinners Poor and Needy (a hymn sung to the tune Beech Spring) and Fishers Hornpipe. The work follows an emotional journey: not necessarily step-by-step with the Voyage of Discovery heroes, but a kind of grand arch. Beginning in the mists of history and myth, traversing peaks and valleys both real and emotional (and a solemn funeral scene), finding help from native people, and recalling their zeal upon finding the one great river that will, in fact, take them to the Pacific. When the men finally roar through the Columbia Gorge in their boats (a feat that even the Indians had not attempted), the magnificent river combines its theme with the chorale of Jeffersons Promise. The Dream is fulfilled: not quite the one Jefferson had imagined (there is no navigable water passage from the Missouri to the Pacific), but the dream of a continental destiny.

Following a celebrated series of wind ensemble tone poems about national parks in the American West, Dan Welcher’s Upriver celebrates the Lewis & Clark Expedition from the Missouri River to Oregon’s Columbia Gorge, following the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. Welcher’s imaginative textures and inventiveness are freshly modern, evoking our American heritage, including references to Shenandoah and other folk songs known to have been sung on the expedition. For advanced players.

Marsyas ist ein Satyr aus den Metamorphosen des griechischen Dichters Ovid (43 v. Chr.-17 n. Chr.). Er findet eine von der Göttin Athene weggeworfene Flöte und spielt bald so gut, dass ihn Apollo zu einem musikalischen Wettstreit zwischen Flöte und Lyra herausfordert. Durch einen üblen Trick verliert Marsyas und erleidet eine grausame Strafe. Diese Sage bot eine ausgezeichnete Vorlage für ein spannendes Solowerk für Flöte, in welchem auch die Harfe (Lyra) erklingt.Si les récits de métamorphoses furent très populaires dans l’Antiquité gréco-romaine, le recueil du poète latin Ovide [43 av. J.-C./17 apr. J.-C.] est de loin le plus célèbre. Les quinze livres des Métamorphoses racontent la formation du monde et les transformations légendaires des dieux et des hommes en animaux, en plantes ou en objets. Parmi les nombreuses histoires de métamorphoses relatées par Ovide, on trouve celle de Marsyas, un satyre originaire de Célènes en Phrygie. Fils d’Hyagnis, considéré comme l’inventeur de l’harmonie phrygienne, Marsyas excellait dans la musique. Un jour, Athéna fit une fl te double et en joua un banquet des dieux. Tournée en dérisionpar Héra et Aphrodite, et ayant constaté elle-même, en voyant le reflet de son visage dans l’eau, que l’instrument, quand elle en jouait, lui déformait les traits, elle jeta la fl te en maudissant quiconque la ramasserait. Cette malédiction frappa le satyre Marsyas qui la trouva et en joua magnifiquement, au grand plaisir des paysans des contrées phrygiennes qui l’écoutaient et qui prétendirent que le dieu Apollon en personne n’aurait pu mieux faire avec sa lyre. Apollon entra dans une colère formidable et proposa l’insolent satyre un concours musical dont le vainqueur pourrait faire subir au vaincu le ch timent de son choix. Les Muses et le roi Midas, choisis comme juges, ne réussirent pas départager les concurrents. Alors, Apollon joua de la lyre l’envers et demanda Marsyas d’en faire autant avec son instrument. Cela était impossible. Marsyas n’y parvint pas, et Apollon fut déclaré vainqueur. Il se vengea du satyre de la plus cruelle façon : il l’attacha un pin et l’écorcha vif.Certains racontent qu’Apollon, se repentant de sa vengeance, métamorphosa en fleuve le corps de Marsyas. D’autres prétendent que le sang de Marsyas ou les larmes versées par les nymphes et les satyres, privés des enchantements de sa fl te, formèrent le fleuve de Phrygie qui porte son nom. / Marsyas fut créé le 22 juillet 2005 Bordes sur Arize en Ariège par le.
