Symphonie Fantastique, composed by Hector Berlioz, is a symphony in five movements based upon Berlioz's own experiences of disappointment in love. Tohru Takahashi's arrangement fully exploits the capabilities of the concert band whilst staying true to the tonal colour and textures of the original. Movements include: Reveries - Passions, Un Bal, Scène aux champs, Marche au supplice and Songe d'une nuit de sabbat.

Hector Berlioz was nogal teleurgesteld in de liefde. Met de nog steeds modern klinkende Symphonie Fantastique gaf hij hieraan uiting. Tohru Takahashi verwerkte de originele partituur voor deze transcriptie. Hij wil hiermee de mogelijkhedenvan een modern blaasorkest optimaal benutten, maar verliest daarbij de originele klankkleuren nooit uit het oog. De optionele solopartij voor de cornet verschijnt in het tweede deel. Oorspronkelijk werd deze voor de beroemdekornettist Jean-Baptiste Arban geschreven.Mooi en meeslepend!Symphonie Fantastique bestaat uit de vijf delen Rêveries-Passions (Mijmeringen), Un bal (Een bal), Scène aux champs (Scène op de velden), Marche au supplice (Gangnaar het schavot) en Songe d'une nuit de sabbat (Droom van een heksensabbat).

Berlioz' einzigartige instrumentale und musikalische Herangehensweise klingt auch im 21. Jahrhundert noch neu. Für diese neue Transkription für Blasorchester schöpfte Tohru Takahashi unter bestmöglicher Ausnutzung der originalen Klangfarben die Möglichkeiten eines modernen Blasorchesters voll aus. Die Sinfonie besteht aus den fünf Sätzen Rêveries-Passions, Un bal, Scène aux champs, Marche au supplice und Songe d'une nuit de sabbat.

L'originalité instrumentale et musicale de Berlioz apparaît encore au XXIe siècle avec la même fraîcheur, que celle qui présida lors de la création de l'oeuvre. Pour cette nouvelle transcription pour orchestre vent, Tohru Takahashi a revisité la partition de Berlioz en respectant l'orchestration originale, afin d'exploiter pleinement le vaste potentiel d'un orchestre vent. La Symphony Fantastique se compose de cinq ensembles Rêveries-Passions, Un bal, Scène aux champs, Marche au supplice et Songe d'une nuit de Sabbat.

L'originalit strumentale e musicale di Berlioz è attuale anche nel XXI secolo. Per questa nuova trascrizione per banda, Tohru Takahashi ha rivisitato lo spartito di Berlioz rispettando l'orchestrazione originale per sfruttare al meglio il vasto potenziale delle formazioni di fiati moderni. La Symphonie Fantastique si compone di cinque movimenti: Reveries-Passions, Un Bal, Scène aux champs, Marche au supplice e Songe d'une nuit de Sabbat.
