Dance of Uzume is a concertino that is based on a Japanese myth: out of anger toward her brother Susanowa, the storm god, the sun goddess Amaterasu hides in a cave. The goddess of joy, Uzume, succeeds in luring the sun goddess out of the cave by dancing wildly. The joy and laughter of the other gods as they watch Uzume arouses Amaterasu's curiosity and with her appearance, the light on earth returns. This fantastic new original work will make a much needed addition to the advanced repertoire for saxophone and concert band. A version for saxophone and piano is also available.Piet Swerts componeerde Dance of Uzume op verzoek van de Japanse topsaxofonist Nobuya Sugawa. Het werk is gebaseerd op een Japanse mythe: uit woede op haar broer Susanowa, de god van de storm, verschuilt de zonnegodin Amaterasuzich in een grot. De vreugdegodin Uzume weet de godin van de zon echter met een wilde dans uit de grot te lokken. Het gelach van de andere goden wekt namelijk de nieuwsgierigheid van Amaterasu en met haar verschijning komt hetlicht terug op aarde. Dit verhaal wordt in de muziek meesterlijk weerspiegeld.Dieses Concertino fur Altsaxophon und Blasorchester basiert auf einer japanischen Sage: Aus Arger uber ihren Bruder Susanowa, den Gott des Sturms, versteckt sich die Sonnengottin Amaterasu in einer Hohle und kann erst durch den Tanz von Uzume, der Gottin der Freude, wieder hervorgelockt werden. Mit ihr kehrt auch das Licht wieder auf die Erde zuruck. Piet Swerts' anspruchsvolles und abwechslungsreiches Werk besteht aus einem konzertanten Dialog zwischen dem Solisten und dem Orchester. Lebhafte und lyrische Themen, ein sehr melodischer Mittelteil, Blues und Marsch ahnliche Motive sowie ostliche Anklange sind eine lohnende Herausforderung fur Saxophonisten und bieten vielAbwechslung fur das gesamte Blasorchester. Dance of Uzume (La danse d'Uzume) est un dialogue virtuose et lyrique entre le soliste et l'accompagnement. La trame se developpe sur un tempo unique et rapide.

Ulceree par les mefaits de son frere Susanowo, dieu du vent et des tempetes, Amaterasu, deesse du Soleil, se confine dans une caverne, privant le monde de sa lumiere. Ne supportant plus l'obscurite, les autres dieux se reunissent devant l'entree de la caverne pour trouver un moyen de la faire sortir. Uzume, la deesse de la gaiete, se met alors a danser frenetiquement. Intriguee, Amaterasu parait enfin et le monde retrouve la lumiere du soleil.Dance of Uzume e un dialogo virtuoso e lirico tra il solista e l'accompagnamento.

Here's a memorable and humorous contrast for your winter concert. A gregarious student or staff member in the guise of âBeethoven returnedâ suddenly appears on your concert stage in this comedy skit for band. The music begins as an innocent Christmas medley, but by the time it's over, âBeethovenâ owns your band, and you, the director, are vanquished from the stage. Of course there are lots of laughs along the way.

The lyrics to Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes can be traced to English poet Ben Jonson, a contemporary of Shakespeare. The melody's origin, on the other hand, is not certain. In this three- movement arrangement, Philip Sparke provides the soloist with plenty of substance while respecting the beautiful simplicity of the original tune. Vooral bij jonge musici is dit oude Engelse lied van onbekende herkomst buitengewoon populair. Met zijn arrangement voor trompet en blaasorkest dat uit drie coupletten bestaat werkte Philip Sparke de solomelodie iets uit. De eenvoudigeschoonheid van het origineel verloor hij daarbij echter niet uit het oog.Dieses alte englische Lied nicht ganz geklarter Herkunft erfreut sich besonders bei jungen Musikern grosser Beliebtheit. In seinem dreistrophigen Arrangement für Trompete und Blasorchester arbeitete Philip Sparke die Melodie für den Solisten etwas aus, immer jedoch mit Rücksicht auf die schlichte Schonheit des Originals. La chanson anglaise Drink to me Only with Thine Eyes a connu un vif succes des deux cotes de l'Atlantique pendant plus de deux siecles. Elle est particulierement appreciee par les jeunes musiciens. L'arrangement de Philip Sparke propose au trompettiste soliste une structure plus elaboree, tout en restant fidele a la delicate simplicite de la version originale. Questa antica canzone inglese, di origini non ben definite, e particolarmente apprezzata dai giovani musicisti. In questo arrangiamento per tromba e banda, composto da tre strofe, Philip Sparke elabora la parte solista rimanendo pero fedele alla sobria bellezza dell'originale.
