Provocative modal shifts and fresh melodic excursions take us to another land. The brooding minor key opening leads by stages to a big uplifting finish. There is also lots of contrast built into the orchestration, making Latin Journey a special treat for band and audience alike. Cross-cultural lessons are a natural fit with this one! Additionally, there is lots of opportunity to work on the finer points of balance and blend.Inventive!

De hoofdmelodie van Latin Journey is in feite de eerste melodie die de componist ooit schreef, op vijftienjarige leeftijd. Hij bezocht toen een seminar voor jonge mensen die wilden leren componeren - en deze melodie kwam voortuit een taakopdracht. Bijna dertig jaar later besloot Carmine Pastore om diezelfde melodie te gebruiken in Latin Journey, a werk dat hij schreef voor de Senior Band van een high school in de Verenigde Staten. Het resultaatmag er zijn!

Provokative modale Verschiebungen und erfrischende melodische Linien entführen den Zuhörer von Latin Journey in lateinamerikanische Gefilde. Die nachdenkliche Eröffnung in Moll verwandelt sich Schritt für Schritt hin zu einem heiteren Schluss. Kontraste prägen auch die Orchestrierung dieser musikalischen Reise. Eine willkommene Stilerweiterung für das Repertoire Ihres Jugendblasorchesters!

La musique latino-américaine est une musique exubérante, souriante, vive, romantique, passionnée et ensoleillée. Ces adjectifs correspondent également cette œuvre de Carmine Pastore. La magie des rythmes et des sons envo te l’esprit des musiciens et les mélodies trotteront dans la tête des auditeurs pendant des semaines. Une œuvre sur mesure pour élargir les horizons stylistiques de votre jeune formation.

After he had survived a heavy sea storm, John Newton (1725-1807), captain of a slave ship, became a priest and from then on he fought for the abolition of slavery. During his tenure he wrote several hymns, of which Amazing Grace certainly is the best known. The melody assumedly derives from a song by the African slaves. Takashi Hoshide has written a compelling arrangement of this beautiful melody.

Nachdem er einen heftigen Seesturm glücklich überlebt hatte, wurde John Newton (1725-1807), der bis dato Kapitän eines Sklavenschiffs gewesen war, Pfarrer und kämpfte fortan für die Abschaffung der Sklaverei. Während seiner Amtszeit schrieb er mehrere Kirchenlieder, von denen Amazing Grace sicherlich das bekannteste ist. Vermutlich stammt die Melodie von einem Lied der afrikanischen Sklaven. Takashi Hoshide schuf ein unwiderstehliches Arrangement für Blasorchester dieser schönen Melodie.

Après avoir survécu une violente tempête en mer, John Newton (1725-1807), marin de commerce et capitaine de navire négrier, devient pasteur et lutte pour l’abolition de l’esclavage. Durant son ministère, il écrivit plusieurs hymnes, dont l’intemporel Amazing Grace. Il est fort probable que l’air vienne d’une mélodie chantée par des esclaves africains. L’arrangement de Takashi Hoshide est purement irrésistible.

Dopo essere sopravissuto ad una violenta tempesta in mare, John Newton (1725-1807), capitano della propria nave e mercante di schiavi, divenne pastore e cominciò a battersi per l’abolizione della schiavitù. Scrisse diversi inni, il più celebre dei quali è Amazing Grace. L’aria è probabilmente ripresa da una melodia cantata dagli schiavi.

Arranged by Peter Kleine Schaars. Peter's Popular Collection. Original Light Music. Score Only. Composed 2004. De Haske Publications #DHP 1043705-140. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-1043705-140).

The sisters Ruth, Anita and June Pointer from West Oakland in California learned how to sing in the sixties in church where their father was a minister. At the beginning of the 1970s they entered the music business, where they proved to have a mastery of many styles - including rhythm & blues, jazz, and country. However, the Pointer Sisters acquired international fame at the beginning of the eighties with their soul-like pop music. A great hit was the up-tempo number I’m So Excited, which is still a success on every dance floor. This sparkling arrangement by Peter Kleine Schaars certainly provides the excitement that is suggested in the title.

Die Pastorentöchter Ruth, Anita und June Pointer aus Kalifornien lernten in den 60er-Jahren in der Kirche ihres Vaters das Singen. Anfang der 70er-Jahre stiegen sie ins Musikgeschäft ein und bewiesen ihr Können in vielen Stilen - darunter Rhythm & Blues, Jazz und Country. Der internationale Ruhm kam jedoch zu Beginn der 80er mit ihrer soulartig angehauchten Popmusik. Ein Riesenhit war I'm So Excited, heute noch ein Erfolg auf allen Tanzflächen. Diese spritzige Bearbeitung für Blasorchester sorgt mit Sicherheit für Aufregung - das im Titel versprochene ?excitement!
