Based on traditional Easter chants Fantasia di Pasqua is a tremendous work to feature four of your players in a religiously inspired work. Often this work is performed in church concerts or religious situations and, as such, thecomposer suggests that the quartet may be utilised performing from two galleries_x001A_. This creates a wonderful double-choir effect that befits the Renaissance-like style of such great composers as Gabrieli. A truly inspired work tobring a touch of Renaissance class to your concerts.

In Fantasia di Pasqua speelt het (koper)kwartet een cruciale rol. De componist raadt aan dit kwartet vanuit een galerij te laten spelen: de zo gecreëerde dubbelkorigheid past bij de enigszins renaissancistische stijl van hetwerk. De gebruikte koraalmelodieën worden alle - veelal dansrijk - door het kwartet uitgevoerd in diverse cadansen, die mede door de dubbelkorigheid resulteren in een levendige en afwisselende uitvoering. Het kwartet hoeft nietper se te bestaan uit twee trompetten (cornetten) en twee trombones, maar kan naar believen worden samengesteld.

In seiner Fantasia di Pasqua verwendete Michael Bilkes traditionelle Osterlieder. Ein Quartett spielt hier eine entscheidende Rolle. Dies kann ein Blech- und/oder Holzbläserquartett sein, möglich ist auch ein Posaunenchor (der Komponist gibt hierzu Tipps). In Kirchen kommt die Fantasie besonders schön zur Geltung, wenn das Quartett von der Empore herab spielt. Der so kreierte Doppelchor-Effekt passt ausgezeichnet zum Renaissance ähnlichen Stil und verspricht eine sehr lebhafte und abwechslungsreiche Aufführung.

Fantasia di Pasqua est une fantaisie basée sur des mélodies chorales pascales, issues de la Renaissance. Un quatuor (cuivres/bois) joue un rôle primordial dans le développement de la pièce. La musique pascale étant essentiellement destinée être interprétée dans un lieu de culte, le compositeur préconise de placer le quatuor sur le balcon. Lâ??effet de double ch?ur ainsi créé donne la pièce un caractère varié et divertissant.

Fantasia di Pasqua, basata su melodie tradizionali, utilizza un quartetto, che riveste un ruolo fondamentale nello sviluppo del brano. Sono possibili varie combinazioni, come ad esempio un quartetto di ottoni e/o legni, come anche un coro di tromboni). Fantasia di Pasqua è scritta in uno stile simile alla musica rinascimentale, una scelta che si spiega con il fatto che la maggior parte delle melodie corali datano di questo periodo. Queste melodie danzanti, interpretate dal quartetto, segnano la trama del brano. La bellezza del doppio coro conferisce al brano un carattere variegato e divertente.
