Perihelion was commissioned by the Cory Band as their own-choice piece for the 2013 European Brass Band Championships, held in Oslo, Norway. Winning the set piece section of the contest and coming second to Eikanger-Bjorsvik Musikklag with their own choice selection, Cory went on to become European Champions for the fifth time.Cory MD Philip Harper had asked for a 'Concerto for Band' to fully exploit his outstanding band of virtuosi, and composer Philip Sparke created a one-movement work with contiguous sections, first featuring horns and flugel, then trombones followed by cornets and a slower central section for percussion and baritones, euphonium andbasses.The piece is abstract in nature, without a specific programme, and the title merely reflects the fact that the piece was begun on January 2nd 2013, the day of Earth's perihelion - the point in its orbit when it is closest to the sun. It could also be argued that the piece weaves between moments of brilliant optimism and dark shadow, both of which can be the result of bright sunshine. Perihelion wurde von der der Cory Band als Selbstwahlstuck fur die European Brass Band Championships 2013 in Oslo, Norwegen, in Auftrag gegeben. Nachdem sie die Pflichtstuck-Sektion des Wettbewerbs gewonnen und mit ihrem Selbstwahlstuck den zweiten Platz hinter dem Eikanger-Bjorsvik Musiklag belegt hatte, wurde die Cory Band zum funften Mal Europameister.Der musikalische Leiter der Cory Band Philip Harper hatte ein 'Konzert fur Brass Band' in Auftrag gegeben, um das ausserordentliche Potential an Virtuosen in seiner Formation voll auszunutzen. Philip Sparke lieferte ihm ein einsatziges Werk aus aneinandergereihten Abschnitten, das zunachst die Tenor- und Flugelhorner,dann die Posaunen in den Mittelpunkt ruckt, gefolgt von den Cornets und einem langsameren Mittelteil fur Schlaginstrumente, Baritone, Euphonium und Basse.Es handelt sich um ein abstraktes, nicht programmatisches Stuck, dessen Titel sich lediglich auf die Tatsache bezieht, dass am 2. Januar 2013, als Philip Sparke mit dem Schreiben begann, das Perihel der Erde war - der sonnennachste Punkt der Erdumlaufbahn. Man konnte auch sagen, dass sich das Stuck zwischen Momenten strahlenden Optimismus' und dunklen Schatten bewegt, was beides der Wirkung strahlenden Sonnenscheins geschuldet sein kann.

This is a great opportunity to incorporate a modern concerto into your band's repertoire, which will provide a fresh and appealing concert item for your upcoming season. The work follows the standard 3-movement concerto form witha syncopated, rag-like opening movement contrasting with a slower, beautifully English-sounding second movement. The third movement is based on a bebop style to show off the jazzier qualities of the clarinet. This substantial workis suitable for a Grade 4 standard band.Mozart schreef zijn bekende klarinetconcert voor de virtuoos Anton Stadler, met wie hij bevriend was. Stadler was verantwoordelijk voor veel technische verbeteringen aan zowel de klarinet als de bassethoorn, hij voegde extra kleppentoe aan beide instrumenten, waardoor het bereik van de klarinet in de laagte werd uitgebreid. Mozart schreef dit concerto voor een klarinet met een lager bereik in vergelijking tot het moderne instrument. Ondanks de beperkingenvan de klarinet van nu komt het origineel in deze bewerking prima tot zijn recht. opname op cd: The Magic of Mozart (DHR 11-011-3)Ein Konzert in drei Sätzen, das den vielfältigen Facetten des Instrumentes Rechnung trägt. Der Eröffnungssatz ähnelt im Stil fast einem Rag. Der langsamere zweite Satz erforscht zunächst das Chalumeau-Register der Klarinette in einem Thema, das später vom Orchester aufgenommen wird, während der Solist einen filigranen Diskant entwickelt. Dieser leitet direkt zum dritten Satz über, dessen Stil an Be-Bop erinnert und die jazzigere Seite der Klarinette in den Vordergrund treten lässt. Modern und vielseitig!

Also available for trombone and piano (HL44007077) Philip Sparke's Trombone Concerto was written for Olaf Ott, principal trombonist with the Berlin Philharmonic. The concerto is in traditional three-movement form and the whole work could be seen as a dramatic soliloquy for the soloist, who starts in earnest and agitated mood but, as the concerto progresses, is able to take a more optimistic tone before ending the work with what could be called a “symphonic samba.†Movement 1 begins darkly until the solo part introduces a more positive theme - only to be “overruled†by a faster, troubled accompaniment; the movement closes over a sombre drum ostinato. Movement 2 opens with a heartfelt “plea†in the accompaniment that is echoed by the soloist, who then plays a simple chorale melody introducing a delicate central section. A chant-like tune leads to a joyous climax, heralding a return of the opening material. Movement 3 casts all troubles aside in a joyful samba - a jazz-influenced central tune explores the higher ranges of the trombone before the samba rhythms set up a “contest†between trombone and piano. The soloist is the eventual “winner†(of course) and celebrates by reintroducing the samba melody before bringing the work to a virtuosic close.

Maurice Ravel's 'Piano Concerto in G major' was composed between 1929 and 1931. The concerto was deeply infused with jazz idioms and harmonies, which, at the time, were highly popular in Paris as well as the United States, where Ravel was traveling on a piano tour. Ravel remarked that The most captivating part of jazz is its rich and diverting rhythm. ... Jazz is a very rich and vital source of inspiration for modern composers and I am astonished that so few Americans are influenced by it. Swiss arranger Simon Scheiwiller transcribed the concerto for piano with accompaniment of a Symphonic Band with great respect to the original instrumentation.

Despite being very busy with three different Broadway musicals, Gershwin was able to complete the 'Concerto in F' for Piano and Orchestra in November 10, 1925. It was commissioned by the American conductor Walter Damrosch who conducted the premiere in Carnegie Hall later that year featuring the composer as the soloist. The 'Concerto in F' shows considerable development in Gershwin's compositional technique, particularly because he orchestrated the entire work himself. Argentine arranger Martin Jorge transcribed the complete concerto for piano with accompaniment of a Symphonic Wind Orchestra.

Prokofiev composed his first piano concerto while at the Conservatory, in 1911 and 1912, and premiered it himself on August 7, 1912. The concerto is a single movement divided into clearly marked sections. Prokofiev could in this way keep the typical fast-slow-fast structure of the usual three-movement concerto, yet use some of the same thematic elements throughout all of his sections. Throughout the work, Prokofiev demonstrates his penchant for bright, percussive textures. The glockenspiel takes on a uniquely soloistic role, often teaming up with the piano to sparkle above the orchestral fray. With its bravura solos and daring harmonies, Prokofiev's first 'mature' composition announces him as a musical force to be reckoned with.

Trained as a violinist in his native Tehran, composer Behzad Ranjbaran eagerly drew inspiration from the traditional Persian kamancheh and its delicate, lyrical sound when creating his profoundly luscious and brilliant Concerto for Violin and Orchestra. This work was completed in 1994 and premiered in England by Joshua Bell, who also gave the first American and Canadian performances. The Concerto for Violin and Orchestra is the recipient of the Rudolf Nissim Award from ASCAP, and it was supported in part by a grant from The National Endowment for the Arts. The solo part with a piano reduction as well as a large score are available on custom print. For advanced players. Duration: 31'.From my early years studying violin at the Tehran Music Conservatory, I was captivated by the sound of the kamancheh, an ancient Persian bowed instrument considered one of the ancestors to the modern violin. I was pleased when the National Endowment for the Arts awarded me a grant to write a violin concerto as it provided me with an occasion to rekindle my fascination with the kamancheh. The notionof writing a violin concerto that would incorporate the power and brilliance of a modern instrument with the delicate and lyrical character of an ancient one was simply irresistible. Moreover, the inspiration from the kamancheh also informed my use of Persian modes, melodic, and rhythmic figures.The notes of the violin’s open strings (G, D, A, E) also influenced many of the melodic and harmonic elements of my violin concerto. The opening tutti is mostly based on intervals of a perfect 4th and 5th. The primary material for each movement incorporates notes of two of the open strings of the violin, creating a three-note melodic motif as the basis of themes:1 st movement: A-D-A2nd movement: D-G-D3rd movement: E-A-EThe overall structure of the concerto is organic and cyclical, as themes are shared between the three movements. For example, the main musical idea of the third movement is a transformation of the first movement’s primary theme. While the movements share similar musical materials, each one is definedby distinguishing characters. The first movement is conflicted; alternating between sections of unabashed lyricism and unforgivingferocity. The second movement is haunting, mysterious, and expressive with long melodic lines that vary continuously. It moves through different moods and characters including a reimagining of a traditional Persian wedding tune played by the orchestra (m. 98). The third movement is festive in character and features much brilliant passagework for the solo violin. At the climax of this movement, themes fromthe previous movements re-emerge simultaneously with greater intensity, propelling the concerto to an energetic finale. The Concerto was composed in 1994 and is dedicated to Joshua Bell.

When writing his tuba concerto, Philip Sparke wanted to create a work which explored the many aspects of the instruments technical and vocal qualities but without resorting to caricature. The result is a concerto in two joined movements, which can both be programmed individually, that contains both many lyrical lines together with stunning virtuosic passages. An outstanding concerto that tuba players and brass band audiences alike will enjoy and applaud.

This three-movement concerto (Allegro con brio, Espressivo and Vivacissimo) was commissioned by the famous Japanese euphonium player Tamao Araki. It demands a high level of instrumental proficiency from the soloist, while the accompaniment is less demanding and accessible for a band of an average level. Yagisawa’s clever use of the euphonium’s colourful sound palette with its beautiful melodic lines makes this composition a rare jewel. Dit concerto in drie delen (Allegro con brio, Espressivo en Vivacissimo) werd geschreven in opdracht van de beroemde Japanse eufoniumspeler Tamao Araki. Het vraagt een grote technische vaardigheid van de solist: de rol van het orkest is minder veeleisend, wat betekent dat het werk goed speelbaar is voor een orkest van gemiddeld niveau. Met Yagisawa’s fraaie melodielijnen en zijn vakkundige gebruik van de klankkleuren van het eufonium is deze compositie een absoluut juweeltje.Dieses Konzert hat drei Sätze (Allegro con brio, Espressivo und Vivacissimo) und wurde von dem berühmten japanischen Euphonium-Spieler Tamao Araki in Auftrag gegeben. Es erfordert vom Solisten ein hohes Maß an instrumentalen Fertigkeiten. Die Begleitung hingegen ist weniger anspruchsvoll und kann von Blasorchestern mit durchschnittlichem Niveau gemeistert werden. Yagisawas geschickte Verwendung der farbenreichen Klangpalette des Euphoniums sowie wunderschöne Melodielinien machen aus dieser Komposition ein wahres Glanzstück.Ce concerto en trois mouvements (Allegro con brio, Espressivo et Vivacissimo) est une commande de Tamao Araki, un célèbre joueur d’euphonium japonais. Il exige de grandes compétences instrumentales de la part du soliste, tandis que l’accompagnement, moins ardu, est accessible un orchestre de niveau moyen. Yagisawa emploie habilement la palette sonore colorée de l’euphonium, et ses belles lignes mélodiques font de cette composition un rare joyau.

This unusual concert work, commissioned by the concert band ?Harmonie Concorde? from Sanem in Luxembourg, is built on two basic ideas: the evolution of the economic and social context of this Luxembourg city with its strong mining industry and the European concept, which is clearly present in this very small but prosperous country with its many European institutes. This is musically expressed in a few quotes from the European hymn Ode to Joy, the closing of Beethoven?s Ninth Symphony and from the Te Deum by Charpentier ? widely known as the signature tune for Eurovision broadcasts. A work of true unity.Aan dit concertwerk - geschreven voor de Harmonie Concorde uit Sanem in Luxemburg - liggen twee basisideeën ten grondslag. Als eerste de sociaal-economische context van het stadje: de mijnbouw heeft decennialang mensen uit diverselanden aangetrokken, met name Portugal. Dit wordt ge llustreerd door de verwerking van een authentiek arbeidslied uit dat land. De tweede pijler is de Europese gedachte die in Luxemburg duidelijk aanwezig is. Dit komt muzikaal totuiting in een dynamische thematiek en citaatjes uit Ode an die Freude van Beethoven en het Te Deum van Charpentier - de herkenningstune voor Eurovisie-uitzendingen. Concordia, een werk dat verschillende elementenin zich verenigt, staat symbool voor eenheid.Zwei Bilder des Landes Luxemburg bilden die Grundlage dieses ungewöhnlichen Werkes: Zunächst beschreiben schöne, teilweise düstere Klänge die Bergbauregion Luxemburg und ihre vielen Gastarbeiter.Mit Zitaten aus Beethovens Ode an die Freude und Charpentiers Te Deum wird Luxemburg als Sitz einiger wichtiger europäischer Institutionen vorgestellt. Der gemeinsame Nenner und Inspiration zum Titel Concordia - lateinisch für Einheit - ist das funktionierende Miteinander vielfältiger Kulturen und Interessen in so einem kleinen Land.Concordia est une oeuvre de commande pour l’Orchestre d’Harmonie Concorde de Sanem au Luxembourg. Cette pièce de concert inhabituelle s’appuie sur deux éléments principaux : l’évolution du contexte économique et social de cette ville luxembourgeoise située dans une région minière et l’idéal européen souligné par une riche palette de nuances et l’utilisation de quelques fragments de l’Hymne la Joie et du Te Deum. Concordia è un brano commissionato a Jan Van der Roost dall’Orchestra di Fiati Concorde di Sanem in Lussemburgo.

Der erste der drei aneinander hangenden Satze von Marimba Concerto enthalt Elemente aus dem Barock und klassischen Stilen, was eher unüblich in moderner Blasmusik ist. Im zweiten Satz ist Satoshi Yagisawas typischer choralartiger Stil zu erkennen, bevor der dritte Satz zu einem rasanten Schluss führt. Obwohl dieses Werk etwa zehn Minuten dauert, fesselt es die Aufmerksamkeit des Publikums vom ersten bis zum letzten Ton.

Satoshi Yagisawa’s Trombone Concerto is both impressive and original at the same time. It features a slow-fast-slow structure with each movement being connected to the next. The second movement, with its rich choralelike writing, is especially noteworthy, bringing out the warmest and most delicate sounds of the trombone. Yagisawa also takes extreme care in how the soloist and band interact with each other, creating an unforgettable work! Dieses Solowerk für Posaune und Blasorchester setzt sich aus drei ununterbrochenen Sätzen zusammen, die in einer schnell-langsam-schnellen Struktur zusammenhängen. Besonders der zweite Satz holt mit choralähnlichen Anklängen das Beste dem warmen und weichen Klang der Posaune heraus. Aber auch die musikalische Interaktion mit dem Blasorchester spielt hier eine große Rolle, sodass alle Musiker und Zuhörer garantiert auf Ihre Kosten kommen! Questo brano è formato da tre movimenti che si intrecciano senza interruzione. Il primo apre con una breve introduzione seguita da una cadenza solistica e da un passaggio pieno di vivacit . Il secondo movimento si caratterizza per una tessitura simile a quella di un corale, nel quale il solista svela le sfumature tipiche del suo strumento. Il terzo movimento è scritto nello stile di una marcia. Più che un brano per strumento solo in cui il solista domina e l’orchestra l’accompagna, Trombone Concerto è una vera conversazione musicale tra i protagonisti.
