Composed by Jim Self. Published by Potenza Music (P2.W0017).

Jim Self's Tour de Force for Wind Band is a series of nine episodes that happens to equal the nine concerts the Pacific Symphony played in Europe. All the episodes connect in one movement. The episodes have no musical connections to those European concerts and it is not a programmatic piece. The Piece begins with a fast, loud flourish of cascading notes slowing and resting on a Pedal C in the low instruments. Total time: 13:15
Included: CD of parts.

This delightful new composition takes its inspiration from the classic French swash buckling tale of Cyrano de Bergerac and his fight to win the love of the beautiful maiden Roxane. The subject was a perfect departure point for composing a symphonic poem with a variety of musical aspects reflecting the story. Lyricism (the theme of Roxane), dramatic episodes, as well as Debussy-inspired impressionist moments are some of the elements that give the band and its conductor the chance to expose themselves as a versatile ensemble being able to create colour, to sing and to play like virtuosi. This work is sure to become a standard item in the concert band repertoire.

In Cyrano verklankt de componist Piet Swerts het romantische en tragische verhaal van de briljante dichter en zwaardkunstenaar Cyrano de Bergerac en zijn mooie, intellectuele nicht Roxane, op wie hij tot over zijn oren verliefdis. Zijn uiterlijk, met name zijn buitengewoon grote neus, belet hem om zijn gevoelens tegenover haar te uiten. De vele verwikkelingen die uit deze situatie voortkomen zijn te herkennen in deze programmatische compositie.

Piet Swerts erzahlt hier musikalisch die tragisch-romantische Geschichte von Cyrano de Bergerac, der einem verliebten Freund hilft, seine Liebe zu erobern und sich dann selbst unglucklich in dessen Angebetete verliebt. Diese Komposition spiegelt die Geschichte mit einer Vielfalt an musikalischen Aspekten eindrucksvoll wider. Lyrik, dramatische Episoden sowie von Debussy inspirierte, impressionistische Momente sind einige der Elemente, die dem Blasorchester und seinem Dirigenten die Chance bieten, sich als vielseitiges Ensemble, das zugleich Farben entfalten, singen und virtuos spielen kann, zu prasentieren.

La comedie heroique Cyrano de Bergerac (1897) valut a son auteur une gloire immediate. Cyrano, heros tragique et attachant, est entre dans le patrimoine universel, sans doute parce qu'il incarne superbement un mythe bien ancien : celui de l'amour et du bonheur impossibles. Ce delicieux chef-d'œuvre theatral d'Edmond Rostand a inspire ce poeme symphonique de Piet Swerts qui s'articule autour d'une grande diversite musicale exprimant differentes scenes de la piece. Passages lyriques, episodes dramatiques et moments impressionnistes, Cyrano comprend de nombreux ingredients qui permettent au chef et a sa formation d'exploiter leur polyvalence a travers lacouleur, le chant et le jeu virtuose.

La commedia Cyrano de Bergerac (1897) valse al suo autore gloria immediata. Cyrano, eroe tragico e commovente, e entrato nel patrimonio universale senza dubbio perche incarna a meraviglia un mito molto antico: quello dell'amore e della felicita impossibili. Questo delizioso capolavoro teatrale di Edmond Rostand ha ispirato il poema sinfonico che si articola attorno ad una grande diversita musicale esprimendo diverse scene dell'opera teatrale. Passaggi lirici, episodi drammatici e momenti impressionanti, Cyrano comprende numerosi ingredienti che permettono al maestro di sfruttare la polivalenza attraverso il colore, il canto e il suono virtuoso.

The story of a sleepless night, Dreams and Fancies uses musical episodes to depict definite pictures: the three accented pulses of the main theme signifying a kind of fate, a demented waltz which breaks down, a love theme in the middle, then a wild jazz party. The end is a huge climax - a grand ceremony in which the lovers marry, but haunted by the three accented pulses of the first theme, representing a dark fate.

This is a story of a sleepless night: fancy is the old English word for a musical fantasy. There are musical episodes, some of which are associated with definite pictures: the three accented pulses of the main theme signifying a kind of fate, a demented waltz which breaks down, a love theme in the middle, then a wild jazz party. The themes all come together as the music becomes more exciting towards the end with thematic interjections appearing as flashbacks. The end is a huge climax - a grand ceremony in which the lovers marry, but haunted by the three accented pulses of the first theme, representing a dark fate. Musically the piece is unifying in two ways. Firstly, all the themes are built from the opening 15 bars. Secondly, the pulse of the music remains virtually constant with each beat around 76 per minute. This means that the tempi need to relate to each other: a difficult task for the conductor!
