The last decades we humans have witnessed a significant number of disturbing developments. If we look at the direct and persistent destructive influence of humans on nature: air and water quality are reducing, soils are depleting, crops are short of pollinators, coasts are less protected from storms, deforestation, the degradation of land, loss of biodiversity and pollution. In stark contrast we find the intelligence and boundless creativity of humans: what about all the high technological advancements? What lies ahead in the realm of Artificial Intelligence? Will we let machines make human decisions? What ethical issues arise there? This composition reflects the desperation and urgency of the human need for action. The music draws inspiration from the brutal natural forces that ravage our world as a direct consequence of human failure and selfishness. Are we heading towards a 'Judgment Day'? Or will humanity find a way to reverse negative trends towards a more livable, peaceful, and joyful environment for humans, animals, and nature? To underscore this message, composer Peter Knockaert opted for a highly classical idiom that has been used by many composers in classical music: the 'Dies Irae'. Traditionally, the Dies Irae is the third part of a requiem (funeral mass). The text used in 'Judgment DayÂ? (for optional choir) is coming from the original Latin text.

This piece was commissioned by Matsudo Citizen Wind Orchestra for their 30th anniversary concert and premiêred by the band conducted by Kenichiro Hasunuma in July 2009. This piece is typical of Satoshi Yagisawa in that it depicts a magnificent spectacle. This one is set in ancient Egypt and is based on the story depicted in the famous film “The Ten Commandments†(1956, directed by Cecil B. DeMille). One day Moses, who was raised by the rich royal family, found out that he was originally Hebrew. The Hebrews had been forced to live as slaves. Ramses, the prince directly descended from the Pharaoh, envied Moses’ strength and popularity. After internal argument Moses decides todeliver the Hebrew from the Pharaoh’s tyranny and escape from Egypt with them.The music starts with brilliant royal fanfare and depicts magnificent architecture, the Hebrew people forced into hard labour, and the slaves escaping from the Pharaoh’s tyranny. At the climax they are at crisis point, trapped by the sea. Moses waves his staff and the miracle happens; the sea parts and Hebrew people successfully escape. Following on from Perseus - A Hero’s Quest in the Heavens, this work Moses and Ramses is another piece written in the dramatic style favoured by Satoshi Yagisawa. Het oude testament verhaalt van Mozes die met zijn volk Egypte verlaat, na zijn strijd met de jonge farao Ramses. De film The Ten Commandments uit 1956 is gebaseerd op dit verhaal. Satoshi Yagisawa zette de beelden van dezemonumentale film om in de karakteristiek dramatische stijl die zo eigen is voor de verfilming. De muzikale beelden geven het koninklijke paleis weer, maar ook de architectonische pracht en praal van het oude Egypte. Ook komen deverlossing van de slavernij en de uittocht aan bod. Natuurlijk met als hoogtepunt dat Mozes de zee opent en het volk door de zee uit Egypte leidt. Een fantastisch spektakel!Von Moses, der nach einem Streit mit dem jungen Ramses mit seinem ganzen Volk, Israel, das Land verließ, erzählt das alte Testament und der darauf basierende Film Die zehn Gebote von 1965. Satoshi Yagisawa setzte die Bilder dieses monumentalen Films in seinem charakteristischen dramatischen Stil um: Die musikalischen Bilder zeigen den Königshof, die architektonische Pracht des alten Ägypten, das versklavte Volk Israel und natürlich die Flucht mit dem Höhepunkt, als Moses das Meer teilt. Ein prachtvolles Spektakel!Moses and Ramses (Mo se et Ramsès) est une commande de l’Orchestre d’Harmonie de la ville de Matsudo au Japon, l’occasion des festivités marquant le trentième anniversaire de la création de la formation. La première mondiale a eu lieu en juillet 2009. Elle fut assurée par la formation dédicataire, placée sous la direction de Kenichiro Hasunuma. Après Perseus - A Hero’s Quest in the Heavens, Satoshi Yagisawa nous livre une nouvelle œuvre dramatique, flamboyante et épique. L’action se déroule en Égypte ancienne, et suit la chronologie du célèbre film biblique Les Dix Commandements (1956), du réalisateur américain Cecil B. DeMille. Le jeune Mo segrandit au sein de la riche famille royale égyptienne. Devenu adulte, il découvre ses origines hébra ques. Or, Pharaon a réduit les Hébreux en esclavage. Le prince Ramsès, descendant direct de Pharaon, envie la force et la gloire de Mo se. Après une querelle grave, Mo se doit fuir dans le désert. Dans son exil, il décide de délivrer son peuple de la tyrannie de Pharaon et de le mener hors d’Égypte. L’œuvre débute avec une fanfare royale flamboyante qui sonne la grandeur architecturale de l’Égypte. Le peuple d’Israël est condamné subir les travaux forcés ; des esclaves échappent la tyrannie du Pharaon. Lorsque la musique atteint sa densité maximale, les Hébreux en fuite sont acculés devant la mer Rouge. Mo se invoque Dieu. Celui-ci lui ordonne de lever son b ton au-dessus des eaux de la mer Rouge. Mo se obéit et le miracle se produit ; les eaux se divisent en deux pour laisser passer les enfants d’Israël.
