The Cherry Tree is a beautiful and lyrical folk song dating back as early as the 15th century in the English Midlands. Having traveled all around western Europe, this folk tune eventually found its way to America, gaining popularity in the South in early 1900s and again in the 1960s. This setting, by composer Brian Beck, captures the beauty and simplicity of the original ballad while encouraging musical expression and smooth phrasing.

Not much is known about the origin of Huntingtower, except for the fact that this ballad was composed in 1931 by the Italian composer Ottorino Respighi (1879-1936), commissioned by Edwin Franko Goldman and the American Bandmaster Association, and was premiered on 17 April 1932 at a concert in memory of John Philip Sousa in Washington D.C. It is not even certain whether Respighi arranged the work himself, or left this to someone else. Huntingtower is the name of a castle in Scotland, where Respighi spent some time. It is possible that this ballad contains his musical impressions of his stay there. The orchestration on this CD, made by Franco Cesarini in 1987, is an adaptation ofthe work to the demands of the contemporary concert band. Si l’année de composition est connue, les origines de l’œuvre Huntingtower (1931) restent néanmoins très floues. Cette ballade pour Orchestre d’Harmonie du compositeur italien Ottorino Respighi (1879-1936) est une œuvre de commande pour Edwin Franko Goldman et l’Association des Chefs d’Orchestres Vent américains (American Bandmaster Association). Huntingtower a été créé Washington, le 17 avril 1932, dans le cadre d’un concert en hommage John Philip Sousa. On ignore si Respighi a personnellement orchestré cette œuvre ou s’il en a confié la réalisation une tierce personne. Huntingtower est le nom d’un ch teau écossais dans lequelRespighi a séjourné pendant quelque temps. Il est donc probable que l’œuvre livre des impressions musicales sur le ch teau et son environnement. Franco Cesarini a réalisé cette transcription en accord avec les exigences de l’Orchestre d’Harmonie moderne.

Aanvankelijk was Nikolaj Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) een Russische marineofficier, maar de successen die hij als componist behaalde, waren voor hem aanleiding om zich geheel te wijden aan het componeren. Hij is met name bekend vanwegeorkestwerken als Capriccio Espagnol en Sheherazade. Zijn vijftien opera’s worden minder vaak uitgevoerd. ‘Song of India’ komt uit de sprookjesachtige opera Sadko. In het lied zingt een koopman over zijn vaderland.Het is alom bekend geworden, getuige de vele uitvoeringen en bewerkingen. Deze versie voor harmonieorkest is van de hand van Wil van der Beek.Song of India, oder auch Song of the Indian Guest ist im Deutschen bekannt als das Hindu-Lied aus Rimski-Korskakows Oper Sadko von 1897. Das Hindu-Lied ist eines der berühmtesten Stücke von Rimski-Korsakow, die, wie der Hummelflug aus dem Märchen vom Zaren Saltan, auch außerhalb ihres Opernkontexts berühmt wurden. Dank Wil van der Beeks Bearbeitung ist die beliebte Arie nun auch Blasorchestern zugänglich.Nikola Rimski-Korsakov occupe une place de choix dans la musique symphonique russe de la fin du XIXe siècle. Parmi ses opéras d'une exceptionnelle richesse musicale, on citera Sadko, créé en 1898. Cet opéra-byline en sept tableaux est basé sur Sadko, le riche négociant, Conte du Roi des mers et de la sage Vassilissa, et d'anciennes ballades russes. La ballade Song of India (Chant du marchand hindou) est extraite du quatrième tableau.

Journey back to ancient Greece and view a place of long-gone legend. Follow the trail to the Kingdom of Ithaca, from the heroic palace, to a place of tranquility, to a reckless dance of abandon, to the return of Odysseus. The melodic material used in 200 B.C. is from a two thousand year old Greek hymn to Apollo. The legendary adventures of Odysseus as described by Homer in the Odyssey (ca. 700 B.C.) provide the programmatic material. The music is freely based upon the First Delphic Hymn (or Paen to Apollo), composed ca. 200 B.C. The source is a transcription appearing on pages 363 - 367 of Ancient and Oriental Music, Edited by Egon Wellesz (Oxford University Press: London, 1957). Each movement of the work depicts a key event in the epic Homeric poem, as described below. Movement I: Intrada - The first four notes of this movement, C - Bb - G - Bb, are the melodic and harmonic foundation for the entire work. These pitches, introduced in a simple and direct manner, are subsequently developed in more complex fashions throughout the suite. Following this stately introduction is a militaristic fanfare that introduces the dotted-eighth and sixteenth-note figure later reprised in the second and fourth movements. Indeed, all the musical ideas which will be central to the remaining movements first appear in the Intrada. This movement depicts the grandeur of Odysseus and his kingdom in Ithaca, and establishes the heroic mood of the entire work. Movement II: Ballad - After a brief restatement of the opening dotted-eighth-and-sixteenth fanfare, the second movement extracts the falling third (Bb to G) from the C - Bb - G - Bb motif and extends it and expands it into a haunting solo for alto saxophone. The C - Bb - G - Bb motif appears again (see measures 23 - 33 in trumpets) as counterpoint to this melody, now pulsing through the thick texture of the band. Many performers have come to view the Ballad as the emotional epicenter of the entire suite; my conception of the Ballad is to achieve a union of pathos and strength. Programmatically, this movement depicts Odysseus's son, Telemachos, as he both longs for Odysseus's return and stoically defends his father's kingdom. Movement III: Dance - It will take Odysseus twenty years to return to Ithaca. During his absence, noblemen besiege his palace, violating the sanctity of the household and seeking the hand of his wife, Penelope. This movement depicts the wanton revelries that result. The original four-note motif is chromatically altered and the meter is made irregular. The rapid tempo, driving percussion, and angular meter and melodies combine in an explosion of reckless abandon. Movement IV: March Building from a delicate woodwind ensemble accompanied by finger cymbals to a fully orchestrated statement replete with thundering percussion, this is a resounding march of victory. Odysseus has returned in triumph to restore dignity to his household and to reclaim the throne of the Kingdom of Ithaca.
