Beating a drum is fun. Beating a big drum is even more fun. Being a soloist and beating a bass drum is best of all.

In 'Big Fun on the Bass Drum' the dream of every starter percussionist is realized.
He/she is soloist and is allowed to really beat the drum hard without the conductor putting a stop to it, but beware: a new skin is rather expensive.

'Big Fun on the Bass Drum' is not only about hitting as hard as you can, though.
A lot of attention is paid to playing the bass drum very softly. And what is more, the composer has found room to offer the soloist a real cadenza - at this point in the composition he/she can either play the partprescribed or give the audience an improvisation of his/her own.

Slaan op een trom is leuk. Slaan op een grote trom is nog leuker, maar 'top of the bill' is solist zijn op een grote trom!

In Big fun on the Bass Drum komt de droom van elke beginnende slagwerker uit.
Hij/zij mag zo hardals mogelijk slaan, zonder 'lastig'te worden gevallen door een dirigent, maar let op: een nieuw vel is duur!
Maar er wordt niet alleen aandacht besteed aan hard meppen in Big Fun on the Bass Drum, ook de zachte passages krijgenruim aandacht.
Verder laat componist William Vean ruimte voor de solist(e) zijn/haar kunnen te tonen in een heuse cadens!

Arctic Funk might just as well have been a flashing sequel to a scene from Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story.
Popular music but with a difference, as indicated by the title.
The work's quiet section temporarily soothes down the heated passion of its two corner movements, but everywhere else action is required throughout.
The work was commissioned in 1991 by Troms? Brass. Situated just above the Polar Circle, Troms? is one of Norway's northernmost towns. Topographically, the town probably comes across as freezing cold, but Troms? is famous for its 'warm' night-life.

The Composer: In Arctic Funk you might get a feeling of a party that takes place betweenice-rocks and snow-capped mountains.

Arctic Funk kan net zo goed een flitsend vervolg op een sc?ne uit de West Side Story van Leonard Bernstein zijn.
Populaire muziek, maar met een verschil, zoals aangegeven door de titel.
Afgewisseld door een rustig gedeelteis het volop actie.
Het werk werd geschreven in 1991 voor Troms? Brass. Troms? is een van de noordelijkste steden van Noorwegen, net boven de poolcirkel. Topografisch de stad komt waarschijnlijk over als ijskoud, maar Troms?is beroemd om zijn 'warme' nachtleven.
De componist: In Arctic Funk krijg je misschien het gevoel van een groot feest dat plaatsvindt tussen ijs rotsen en besneeuwde bergen.

There have been many arrangements of Beatles’ songs for various kinds of ensembles, so rather than just producing a further medley of Beatles’ hits, Peter Kleine Schaars has added a new twist to them with this excellent new work. All You Need Is Love and With a Little Help from my Friends pass by in a swing march, Michelle sounds like a newly composed ballad and When I’m Sixty Four is played in Dixie swing style. A Hard Day’s Night is transformed into a funk theme with a samba interlude, Let It Be into a slow march, and Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da in a rock beat. Experience The Beatles as you have never heard them before.

Beatles-Medleys gibt es bereits viele, für alle Arten von Instrumentierungen. Also dachte sich Peter Kleine Schaars für seine Beatles-Auswahl etwas Besonderes aus und steckte die Lieder in ein völlig neues Gewand. All You Need Is Love und With a Little Help from My Friends kommen als Swing-Märsche einher, Michelle klingt wie eine völlig neu komponierte Ballade, während When I'm Sixty Four im Dixie Swing-Stil gespielt wird. A Hard Day's Night wurde in ein funkiges Thema mit einem Samba-Zwischenspiel verwandelt, Let It Be in einen langsamen Marsch und Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da schließlich in einen Rock Beat. Genießen Sie die Beatles, wie Sie sienoch nie gehört haben!

A Hard Day's Night • All You Need is Love • Let It Be • Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da • When I am Sixty Four • With A Little Help From My Friends • MichelleLa musique des Beatles reste toujours aussi neuve et riche, et symbolise plus que jamais l'insouciance et la créativité des sixties.

The composition the Lonesome Knight was based on a fairytale. The piece was written by Saskia Apon for the National Brass Band Championships 2001.

Once upon a time there was a knight who went to fight and defeat the dragon that had beenkilling the people of his town.
There is a short but intense battle between the two and the knight is triumphant. However whilst persuing the dragon the knight has travelled far away from his home and now is lost. He roames around trying to findhis way home, but exhausted and weary he falls to the ground. He awakens startled by a Giant and a group of Goblins who are celebrating the death of the dragon.
The knight joins in the festivities but after a long evening is once more leftalone.
The sun rises the following morning and he sees a castle on the horizon. He enthousiastcally ventures towards the castle in the hope of meeting other people.
However he becomes greatly disillusioned when there is none to be found. Inhis desperation the knight climbs the tower ready to jump off.
Suddenly he hears a heavenly voice. Right before him is the most beautiful princess he has ever seen. She graciously thanks him for killing the dragon, a spark ingnites between themand they build a life together and.... live happily ever after!

Saskia Apon studied harp at Rotterdam School of music. With this instrument she rounded of her studies by passing with credit, however it was her love of composition thatremained her focus.
Self-taught, she began composing at the age of nine. Since then she has written pieces for The Dutch Brass Quintet, The Dutch Brass Ensemble, The Rotterdam Trombone Quartet and the brass band quintet Brass Ability.
Atpresent she is the in-house arranger for The Rotterdam Philarmonic Brass Ensemble.
Besides the customary attention for the real splashworks she endeavours to add value to the melodic function of the brass wind instruments in her music. Hercompositions and arrangements can be found on many diverse Cds.The composition the Lonesome Knight was based on a fairytale.

Alpina Brass was the test piece for the first division of the Fêtes Cantonales on 8 and 9 June 2019 in Naters, Switzerland. It consists of three movements, and features a variety of aspects, as is common for a competitionwork. However, as a whole, it has been written in such a way that it can perfectly serve as a concert work as well. It is a challenging piece for every section and offers colourful and melodic as well as spectacular rhythmicsequences and a most impressive ending!

Alpina Brass was het verplichte werk voor de eerste divisie van de Fêtes Cantonales op 8 en 9 juni 2019 in het Zwitserse Naters. Het is drieledig van vorm en er komen allerlei aspecten in aan bod, zoals dat voor eenconcourswerk gebruikelijk is. Het is echter zodanig geschreven dat het ook prima als concertwerk kan fungeren. Deze compositie bevat uitdagingen voor alles secties, evenals kleurrijke en melodische maar ook spectaculaireritmische opeenvolgingen en een indrukwekkend slotgedeelte!

Over a period of four decades Jimmy Webb (b. 1946) has written hits for a number of singers including Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Linda Ronstadt. His songs are often epic in character and include By the Time I Get to Phoenix; Up, Up and Away; Didn’t We; Wichita Lineman and Galveston. MacArthur Park (1968) was unlike anything that had gone before it. Running at over 7 minutes, it is 2 or 3 times the length of most pop songs and has an extended orchestral interlude. Richard Harris’ seminal recording topped the music charts in Europe, while peaking at number two on the U.S. charts. Philip Sparke has made this excellentarrangement for brass band, which is sure to become a regular feature on your concert programme.

MacArthur Park van Jimmy Webb, een nummer dat uitkwam in 1968, was niet te vergelijken met alles wat daarvoor was gemaakt. Met een duur van meer dan zeven minuten is deze song twee of drie keer zo lang als de meeste popsongs,ook het orkestraal tussenspel is bijzonder. Richard Harris’ originele opname stond bovenaan in de hitparades van Europa en op nummer 2 in de Verenigde Staten. Philip Sparke schreef een fantastisch arrangement dat zowel uw muzikantenals uw publiek zal aanspreken.

Jimmy Webbs Musik kennt jeder: sei es als Musik zur Fernsehserie Emergency Room oder als einen der Hits von großen Stars wie Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, Linda Ronstadt und vielen anderen. Mit dem Popsong MacArthur Park gelang dem stets kontroversen, aber äußerst erfolgreichen Sänger und Komponisten ein Riesenhit im Jahr 1968. Das Lied über eine verlorene Liebe ist ungewöhnlich lang für einen Popsong und es enthält ein ausgearbeitetes Orchester-Zwischenspiel. Grund genug für Philip Sparke, diesen besonderen, unvergessenen Hit für Brass Band zu bearbeiten.

Pendant plus de quarante ans, Jimmy Webb (1946) a composé des chansons succès pour divers artistes tels que Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash et Linda Ronstadt. En 1968, il écrit MacArthur Park, une chanson complètement novatrice. D’une durée de plus de sept minutes, elle est deux trois fois plus longue que la plupart des succès pop et contient un grand interlude orchestral. La version d’anthologie de MacArthur Park, interprétée et enregistrée par Richard Harris, s’est classée en tête des hit-parades européens et numéro 2 aux États-Unis.

Per oltre quarant’anni, Jimmy Webb (1946) ha composto canzoni di successo per artisti come Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash e Linda Ronstadt. Nel 1968, scrive MacArthur Park, una canzone totalmente innovativa. Di una durata di oltre sette minuti, è da due a tre volte più lunga della gran parte dei successi pop e contiene un interludio orchestrale. La versione d’antologia di MacArthur Park, interpretata e incisa da Richard Harris è stata in testa alle hit-parades europee e n. 2 negli Stati Uniti.

Using themes based on semi-quavers Peter Kleine Schaars has carefully crafted these four contrasting dances for the De Haske Flexible 4 Series. Each of the parts take a turn to play the melody so no player feels left out.

Peter Kleine Schaars schreef deze eenvoudige selectie in de Flexible 4 Series speciaal voor beginnende jeugdorkesten. Met als kleinste notenwaarde een achtste heeft de componist vier totaal verschillende dansen gecreëerd. Destemmen nemen om de beurt de melodie voor hun rekening. In een soort muzikale dansles hoort u achtereenvolgens een paso doble, een langzame wals, een tango en een swingende jive als afsluiter.

Auf die besonderen Bedürfnisse von zahlreichen Anfänger- und Jugendorchestern eingehend, schrieb Peter Kleine Schaars diese Auswahl an einfachen Stücken für die Flexible 4 Series. Mit Achteln als kleinster Notenwert schuf der Komponist vier völlig unterschiedliche Tänze, in welchen die Stimmen abwechselnd die Melodie präsentieren. In einer Art musikalischer Tanzstunde erklingen nacheinander ein Paso doble, ein langsamer Walzer, ein Tango und ein schwungvoller Jive.

Pour répondre un besoin croissant d’oeuvres pour Orchestre d’Harmonie Junior ou Petites Formations, Peter Kleine Schaars a composé cette pièce facile, publiée dans la collection Flexible 4 Series.
