Spirit of Endeavour is a virtuosic piece of music with a positive musical message. It tells the story of a wind band embracing hard work, friendship, musical excellence, love, marriage and birth, as well as the sad loss of cherished members. Composer Philip Sparke decided to salute the history of the Canadian concert band 'Harmonie de Charlesbourg' with a work that falls into two contrasted sections. One Vision deals with forming the band and the subsequent united desire to create an ensemble espousing the idea of musical perfection. The Pursuit of Excellence salutes the 20 years of hard work of the wind band. This concert work ends with a chorale of thefull band, symbolising the fulfilment of a united dream! Het werk weerspiegelt het verhaal achter de Harmonie de Charlesbourg vanaf het begin in 1993. Dat verhaal kent vele facetten en behelst verschillende aspecten van het menselijk bestaan: hard werk, vriendschap, het streven naar muzikale schoonheid, liefde, huwelijk en geboorte, maar ook het droevige verlies van gewaardeerde leden. Componist Philip Sparke besloot dit alles weer te geven in twee contrasterende delen: het eerste, One Vision, verklankt Francois Dorions vooruitziende blik bij de oprichting van het orkest en de daaropvolgende wens om een ensemble te creeren dat het ideaal van muzikale perfectie zou omarmen. Het tweede deel, The Pursuit of Excellence, is een odeaan twintig jaar van grote inspanningen waardoor de Harmonie de Charlesbourg de nagestreefde doelen heeft kunnen bereiken: inmiddels neemt het orkest een trotse plaats in binnen het muziekleven van Quebec. Spirit of Endeavour ist ein virtuoses Blasorchesterwerk mit einer positiven Botschaft. Es erzahlt von der facettenreichen Geschichte eines Blasorchesters: harte Arbeit, Freundschaft, musikalische Spitzenleistung, Liebe, Heirat und Geburt und der Verlust geschatzter Mitglieder. Der erste Satz One Vision handelt von der Grundung und dem gemeinsamen Bestreben nach musikalischer Perfektion. The Pursuit of Excellence beschreibt 20 Jahre harter Arbeit der Formation, bevor ein Choral das Werk wurdevoll beendet.Spirit of Endeavour honore l'histoire de l'Harmonie de Charlesbourg depuis sa formation, en 1993. Cette histoire aux multiples facettes embrasse tous les aspects de la vie humaine : le travail, l'amitie, l'excellence musicale, l'amour, lemariage et la naissance, ainsi que la perte douloureuse de membres aimes.Le compositeur Philip Sparke salue cette histoire avec une oeuvre qui se divise en deux parties contrastees : la premiere, One Vision, reflete la vision deFrancois Dorion lorsqu'il a fonde l'orchestre, ainsi que le desir unanime de former un ensemble epousant l'ideal de la perfection musicale. La deuxieme partie, The Pursuit of Excellence,salue les vingt annees de travail acharne permettant al'Harmonie de Charlesbourg de realiser ses espoirs et de prendre une place de premier plan dans la vie musicale du Quebec.Spirit of Endeavour (Spirito di impresa) Il compositore Philip Sparke decide di onorare la storia della banda da concerto canadese 'Harmonie de Charlesbourg' con un lavoro che si divide in due sezioni contrastanti.

The Legend of Spirit Island was commissioned by the Twin Ports Wind Orchestra, Duluth, Minnesota (Mark Whitlock, conductor), to honour the euphonium player, Dick Carlson. The piece takes its title from a local legend about Spirit Island, which lies in a gap of the St. Louis River called Spirit Lake. The legend tells the story of Chaska, the son of a Dakota Chief, and Wetona, the daughter of Ojibwe Chief Buckado. He was handsome and she was beautiful; it wasn’t long before they fell in love. This is a challenging euphonium solo in which the versatile soloist can explore very expressive melodic sequences, as well as energetic, technical sections.The Legend of Spirit Island werd geschreven in opdracht van de het Twin Ports Wind Orchestra uit Duluth, Minnesota (dirigent Mark Whitlock) als eerbetoon aan euphoniumspeler Dick Carlson. De titel van het werk is afkomstig van een lokale legende over Spirit Island, dat dicht bij Duluth in een verbreding van de St. Louis River Spirit Lake ¬ligt. Deze legende gaat over Chaska, de zoon van een Dakota-opperhoofd, en Wetona, de dochter van Ojibwe-opperhoofd Buckado. Hij was knap en zij was mooi; het duurde niet lang of de twee waren verliefd op elkaar. De uitdagende euphoniumsolo biedt de solist de mogelijkheid om expressieve melodieën te verkennen en zijn of haarspeelvaardigheid te demonstreren. The Legend of Spirit Island wurde vom Twin Ports Wind Orchestra aus Duluth, Minnesota (Dirigent: Mark Whitlock), in Auftrag gegeben, um den Euphoniumspieler Dick Carlson zu ehren. Der Titel des Stückes leitet sich von einer Legende über die Insel Spirit Island ab, die in einem Bereich des St. Louis River liegt, der Spirit Lake genannt wird. Die Legende handelt von Chaska, dem Sohn eines Dakota-Häuptlings, und Wetona, der Tochter des Ojibwe-Häuptlings Buckado. Er war gut aussehend und sie war schön, und so dauerte es nicht lange, bis sie sich ineinander verliebten. In diesem anspruchsvollen Stück kann der Euphonium-Solist sehr ausdrucksvolle melodische Sequenzen, aber auchenergiegeladene, technische Abschnitte erkunden. The Legend of Spirit Island est une commande du Twin Ports Wind Orchestra de Duluth, Minnesota (dirigé par Mark Whitlock), en l’honneur de son joueur d’euphonium, Dick Carlson. L’œuvre prend son titre d’une légende locale concernant Spirit Island, une île qui se trouve dans un élargissement du fleuve St. Louis appelé Spirit Lake.

This work was commissioned by Dr. Robert Oertli from Möhlin, Switzerland, and is based on an earlier composition called Spirit of the Sequoia. The piece is inspired by how the human spirit can gain from setbacks: we become stronger after adversity. Sparke used the Californian redwood tree as a metaphor for this basic idea. The remarkable life cycle of these amazing trees involves them dropping seeds to the ground, which require heat to open their shells and germinate; the seeds require destruction in order to procreate. This piece is particularly suitable for younger bands - one of the last wishes of the initial commissioner.Dit werk is geschreven in opdracht van dr. Robert Oertli uit het Zwitserse Möhlin. Het is een vereenvoudigde versie van een eerdere compositie: Spirit of the Sequoia. De muziek is ge nspireerd op de wijze waarop mensen hun voordeel doen met tegenslag vaak komen we er sterker uit. Sparke gebruikte de Californische sequoiaboom als metafoor voor dit basisidee. In hun opmerkelijke levenscyclus laten deze bijzondere bomen zaden op de grond vallen, die vervolgens hitte nodig hebben om open te barsten en te kiemen; de bomen hebben dus eigenlijk een ramp nodig om zich voort te planten. Deze compositie is geschikt voor jongere orkesten dit was een van de laatste wensen van deaanvankelijke opdrachtgever. Dieses Werk basiert auf der Komposition Spirit of the Sequoia, welche von Dr. Robert Oertli aus Möhlin (Schweiz) in Auftrag gegeben wurde. Sparke nutzte den kalifornischen Mammutbaum als Metapher für seine Grundidee: Der bemerkenswerte Lebenszyklus dieser erstaunlichen Bäume hängt damit zusammen, dass seine Samen auf die Erde fallen und Wärme benötigen, damit sich ihre Schale öffnet und sie zu keimen beginnen. Waldbrände zerstören den Mutterbaum, ermöglichen aber paradoxerweise das Sprießen der Samen, welche die Zerstörung zur Fortpflanzung benötigen. Auf ähnliche Weise kann die menschliche Seele profitieren: Wir gehen gestärkt aus einem Unglück hervor. And Still, theSpirit eignet sich besonders für jüngere Orchester einem der letzten Wünsche des Auftraggebers entsprechend. Cette œuvre fut commandée par Robert Oertli, de Möhlin en Suisse, et est basée sur une composition antérieure appelée Spirit of the Sequoia. Ce morceau est inspiré par la façon dont l’esprit humain peut réellement tirer parti des échecs de la vie : nous devenons plus forts face l’adversité. Sparke utilise le séquoia californien comme métaphore pour son idée de base. Le cycle de vie remarquable de ces arbres spectaculaires repose sur des graines qui, tombées par terre, nécessitent de la chaleur pour germer ; elles ont besoin de l’effet dévastateur d’un incendie pour se développer. Cette œuvre convient particulièrement bien aux jeunes formations, ce qui était l’un desderniers souhaits du Dr Oertli. Lavoro commissionato dal dott. Robert Oertli (Möhlin, Svizzera) a basato su una precedente composizione intitolata Spirit of the Sequoia, è un inno alla vita, un incitamento a superare tutti gli ostacoli che questa può riservare. Mediante la metafora del ciclo vitale della sequoia californiana, che necessita di calore perché il guscio dei suoi semi si schiuda e germogli, Sparke ci consegna un’opera suggestiva, particolarmente indicata per le bande giovanili, così come nei desideri del committente.

Inspired by a trip to Honolulu, this music embodies the aloha spirit that so many discover when visiting the islands of Hawaii. Making use of a wealth of authentic percussion instruments (along with many options for substitutions), the piece truly captures the bright spirit of Hawaii. An optional ukulele part is cued in other instruments, and the piece concludes with a powerful rendition of Hawaii Aloha, an anthem of great pride to those who live in Hawaii. Magical!

Spirit of the Winds, a concert/festival work for the developing band, was inspired by the beautiful Temecula Valley of California. Each year, the sky over the valley is filled with hot air balloons creating a visual sight that is not soon forgotten. Of course, balloons are unable to steer and must fly with the gentle breezes of the air current. As a result, those subject to the spirit of the winds can find themselves over festival grounds or floating above the beautiful Temecula Valley vineyards. Beginning with a bold, yet mysterious statement, the introduction gives way to a soaring melody as our flight begins. Cascading figures in the woodwinds create the effect of wind currents followed by a beautiful secondary melodic statement. The original theme returns leading to a very energetic conclusion. Accessible to a wide range of concert bands, Spirit of the Winds provides multiple teaching opportunities and will be enjoyed by both performer and audience.

Das Konzertwerk Spirit of Life wurde vom belgischen Komponisten Johan Nijs geschrieben. Mittels dieser Komposition will er die verschiedenen Aspekte des Lebens musikalisch darstellen. Das Leben ist oft eine Kette von Höhen und Tiefen und in der Regel wechseln sich darin die angenehmen mit den weniger angenehmen Momenten ab. In Spirit of Life bringt der Komponist dies in einer abwechslungsreichen Reihe heiterer, melancholischer, nostalgischer und rhythmischer Themen zum Ausdruck.La vie est une succession de hauts et de bas, de calme et de tempêtes, d’instants de bonheur et de tristesse, etc. Spirit of Life illustre ces différents aspects au travers d’une série de variations construites autour de l’alternance entre thèmes gais, mélancoliques, nostalgiques et rythmiques.
