Nordanvind is a tour de force symphonic rhapsody that is built on three Scandinavian folk songs. Composer Carl Strommen has composed these Viking-influenced melodies into a concert setting that brings out all of the history of the Scandinavian people. The piece is at times bold and aggressive, at other times beautiful. Carl employs all of the instrumental colors of the concert band to create a new work for more advanced ensembles.Modern Scandinavians are descendants of the Vikings, an adventuresome people who were known for their love of the sea, their naval prowess, and as fierce fighters . The Scandinavian Vikings were warriors from Denmark, Norway, and Sweden who traded, raided and settled in various parts of Europe, Russia, the North Atlantic islands, and the northeastern coast of North America .Starting around 1850, over one million Swedes left their homeland for the United States in search of religious freedom and open farm land . Augustana College was founded in 1860 by graduates of Swedish universities and is located on the Mississippi River in Rock Island, Illinois . Home of the “Vikings,†Augustana College is the oldest Swedish- American institution of higher learning in the United States . This powerful and lively piece takes inspiration from Swedish history and from Swedish folk songs and hymns .Havsdrake (Dragon of the Sea)The Nordanvind or “North Wind†blows a cold wind during a journey of a group of courageous Viking rowers . The “Dragon-ship†or long ships designed for raiding and war was a sophisticated, fast ship able to navigate in very shallow water . To musically portray these magnificent seafaring vessels, the director is encouraged to use an Ocean Drum (or a rain stick) during the introduction . Wind players may consider blowing air through their instruments to suggest the North wind . Adding men’s voices to accompany the haunting low brass and percussive “rower†sounds can be helpful in creating the dark and ominous portrayal of Viking adventurers .Slangpolska efter Byss - KalleIn Sweden, a “polska†is a partner dance where the dancers spin each other (släng in Swedish “to sling or tossâ€) . Slangpolska efter Byss - Kalle is attributed to Byss-Kalle, who was a notable Swedish folk musician, specifically a nyckelharpa player . Slangpolska efter Byss - Kalle is a traditional “polska†dance song most often played on the Nyckelharpa or keyed fiddle and is commonly heard in pubs and at festive events throughout Sweden . Approximately 10,000 nyckelharpa players live in Sweden today, and the Swedish and the American Nyckelharpa Associations are dedicated to this Swedish National instrument . The director is encouraged to share video and audio examples of the nyckelharpa playing the original Slangpolska efter Byss - Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen Vara (Children of the Heavenly Father)Tryggare Kan Ingen Vara Is a traditional Swedish melody, possibly of German roots, and was believed to be arranged as a hymn by the Swedish hymn writer, Karolina Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg (1832–1903) . As a daughter of a Swedish Lutheran minister, she began writing poems as a teenager and is said to have written over 1,700 different texts . There are two different accounts as to the inspiration for this hymn . The first story is that Lina (as she was called) wrote the hymn to honor her father and to say thank you to him for raising her and protecting her . A second belief is of her witnessing the tragic death of her father . She and her father were on a boat, when a wave threw her father overboard . It was said that the profound effect of watching her father drown is what caused Lina to write the text to this hymn . Although this is a treasured song to people of Swedish descent everywhere, it speaks to all people about a father tending and nourishing his children, and protecting them from evil .SPS71FThe Augustana College Concert BandFounded in 1874, the Augustana Band program is one of the oldest continuously active collegiate band programs in the country .

Written as a commission by the Stichting de Inrichting foundation of Wijk bij Duurstede (the Netherlands), Rob Goorhuis Requiem voor de mens (Requiem for Man) on lyrics by André van Zwieten was composed in the year 2001. This work for choir andwind-band greatly impressed the audience, whilst its composer remained obsessed by its war theme. When he subsequently heard that the Rundfunk Blasorchester from the German town of Leipzig -a place not far from Colditz - was to dedicate a CDto his work, Rob Goorhuis got the idea to process some of the themes from his Requiem for Man into an instrumental composition about the famous Colditz castle. a place still bearing the scars of war. From 1933 to 1934, the castle was aSchutzhaftlager. During the Second World War, it was used as a prison for senior officers. From this prison, many escapes were undertaken, which even resulted in the castle being nicknamed The Escape School. In the seventies, a television-seriesabout this period made the castle very well-known with the public at large.The despondent tone of the opening theme underscores the sadness caused by wars and violence. Nevertheless the works ending is hopeful and triumphant. Peace iscelebrated, but with the hope for a lasting peace sadly remaining a topical issue to the present moment.In 2001 schreef Rob Goorhuis, op teksten van André van Zwieten het Requiem voor de Mens, in opdracht van de Stichting de Inrichting uit Wijk bij Duurstede.Dit werk voor koor en harmonie-orkest maakte grote indruk op het publiek, terwijl decomponist bleef geobsedeerd door het oorlogs thema. Toen hij later hoorde dat het Rundfunk Blasorchester uit de Duitse stad Leipzig, een plaats niet ver van Colditz, gevraagd was om een cd te wijden aan zijn werk, kreeg Rob Goorhuis het ideeom enkele van de themas uit zijn Requiem voor de Mens te verwerken tot een instrumentale compositie over de beroemde kasteel Colditz, een plaats met nog steeds de littekens van de oorlog.Het kasteel van Colditz heeft in de historie eenbelangrijke rol gespeeld. Het eeuwenoude kasteel overleefde vele veldslagen en oorlogen. In de Tweede Wereldoorlog diende het kasteel zelfs als gevangenis voor geallieerde officieren. Het aantal ontsnappingen was echter talrijk en de geromantiseerdeBritse TV-serie uit de jaren zeventig over dat onderwerp gaf het kasteel een grote bekendheid. Het driedelige werk beschrijft de periode voor, tijdens en na de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De angst voor dat wat staat te gebeuren en het verdrietvan jaren van oorlog in het kalme sfeervolle eerste deel. Vervolgens de hoop op beter en positievere geluiden in het tweede en derde deel. Vooral het derde flitsende deel houdt de hoop op betere tijden springlevend.Gobelin Music Publications.

Claudio Monteverdi composed this toccata as an instrumental introduction for the opera L’Orfeo (1607). According to the composer, this introduction should be played three times before the rising of the curtain. This is actually the first overture in the history of opera.)The story of Orfeo, who enchanted nature with his music, is tragic, as he loses his beloved Eurydice and decides to retrieve her from the underworld. On their return journey, one glance back at her is fatal: he loses her for the second time.)This arrangement for wind band is very suitable as a concert opener. The toccata is played three times just like the original. The first time it is played by a quintetconsisting of two trumpets and three trombones.)Various ways of performing this toccata are possible. The tension builds up more intensely if the quintet starts off stage. Eventually, these five players join the band, after which the tutti version follows two times. You can also have the brass play from the gallery during the second or third time for a double choir effect. Claudio Monteverdi componeerde deze toccata als instrumentale inleiding tot de opera L’Orfeo (1607). Dit arrangement voor harmonieorkest is dan ook heel geschikt als openingswerk. De toccata wordt drie keer gespeeld, de eerste keer door een kwintet van twee trompetten en drie trombones. De opbouw van de spanning is intenser als het kwintet in de coulissen of achter het podium begint. Vervolgens voegen deze vijf muzikanten zich bij de rest van het orkest, waarna de tutti-versie nog twee keer klinkt.Claudio Monteverdi schrieb diese Toccata als instrumentales Vorspiel zur Oper l'Orfeo. Sie sollte drei Mal vor der Hebung des Vorhangs gespielt werden. Damit hatte er tatsächlich die erste Ouvertüre der Operngeschichte geschaffen! Wie im Original, wird auch in dieser Bearbeitung die Toccata drei Mal gespielt: zunächst von einem Trompeten- und Posaunenquintett, dann zwei Mal vom gesamten Blasorchester. Ein ideales Eröffnungswerk!Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) a composé cette toccata instrumentale pour l’ouverture de son opéra tragique L’Orfeo (1607). Selon le souhait du compositeur, cette pièce d’introduction doit être jouée trois fois rideau baissé. Ce faisant, Monteverdi a composé la première ouverture dans l’histoire de l’opéra. Cet arrangement pour Orchestre d’Harmonie est idéal pour débuter un concert. Fidèle la version originale, la Toccata est interprétée trois fois dont la première par un quintette composé de trois trombones et de deux trompettes.Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) compose questa Toccata strumentale per l’ouverture dell’opera tragica L’Orfeo (1607). Il compositore desiderava che questo brano di apertura fosse eseguito tre volte a sipario chiuso. Così facendo, compose la prima ouverture nella storia dell’opera. Questo arrangiamento per banda è ideale per iniziare un concerto. Fedele alla versione originale, la Toccata è interpretata tre volte, di cui la prima dal quintetto composto da tre tromboni e due trombe.

This piece attempts to portray atmospheric pictures through music. The opening section evokes the somewhat misty and hazy early morning atmosphere surrounding the ancient monument. When the band reaches its first dynamic climax it is as if the massive boulders are audible, even touchable through the use of minor 3rd chords. The main theme - constructed on the notes CAFBG symbolises the arrangement of the central boulders in the shape of a horseshoe, which forms the focal point of this huge collection of stones. Towards the end of the work you will experience a fantastic effect when five soloists play a five part hymn whilst other members of the band create a specialatmosphere by imitating a choir of monks and druids. A fantastic major new concert work for advanced bands. Een enorme cirkel van gigantische rechtopstaande stenen staat al zo’n 3500 jaar lang in het zuidwesten van Engeland. In dit werk zijn sfeerbeelden omgezet in muziek. Hoewel er geen concreet verhaal aan ten grondslag ligt en er geenduidelijk scenario is gebruikt, verklankt deze compositie het mysterie en de grootsheid van het eeuwenoude geheimzinnige monument Stonehenge op voortreffelijke wijze.Im Südwesten Englands steht seit fast 3500 Jahren ein Ring riesiger Steine: Stonehenge. Das gleichnamige Werk von Jan Van der Roost bringt mystische Stimmungen und Bilder rund um die alte Stätte auf musikalische Weise zum Klingen. Das Hauptmotiv aus fünf Tönen zieht sich durch das gesamte Werk und symbolisiert den hufeisenförmigen inneren Ring des riesigen Steinkreises. Später gemahnen fünf Vokalsolisten sowie ein gesungener Druiden- und Mönchs-Chor an Stimmen aus einer fremden Welt. Stonehenges ungelüftetes Geheimnis schlug den Komponisten in seinen Bann und inspirierte ihn zu diesem ebenso unwiderstehlichen Werk, das Tohru Takahashi nun für Blasorchester transkribierte.Dans le sud-ouest de l’Angleterre, se dresse, depuis plus de 3 500 ans, un impressionnant cercle de blocs de grès. En dépit de multiples recherches et calculs scientifiques, on ne connaît toujours pas la signification exacte de ce site. Au fil des siècles, de nombreuses suppositions et spéculations ont été avancées quant la fonction de Stonehenge, lieu de cérémonies religieuses, lieu de rituels et d’adoration, mais aucune de ces hypothèses n’a pu être démontrée de façon probante ce jour. Actuellement, on s’accorde penser que Stonehenge est un calendrier géant. La disposition particulière des blocs permet d’observer le lever du soleil ou le coucher de la lune, de prédire lessolstices d’été et d’hiver, de déterminer les positions de la lune travers les diagonales, etc. En résumé, ce mystérieux monument de pierre permet d’observer les changements de saison.Stonehenge est une mise en musique d’images et d’impressions atmosphériques ; un paysage sonore dont la trame ne suit aucun scénario précis, mais dont les images sont réelles.

Before the days of photography, the great state occasions were captured in paintings and tapestries. In this Suite, the composer has imagined the pomp and splendor of the English court at work and play, capturing each mood in a short movement.Stuart Johnson has the fine ability to capture moods and scenes in music. He was born in Staffordshire, the county for which he was Director of Music until his retirement in 1997. After experience as a player in brass bands, he served in the band of the King's Dragoon Guards before training as a teacher and working in schools.

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.

Jacob de Haan wrote this arrangement for concert band, fanfare band and brass band and optional male voice choir. The original carol was written by the Austrian composer and organist Franz Gruber (1787-1863). He was asked to write Silent Night on the 24th of December 1818 by the priest of the Church of St. Nicolas in Oberndorf, who had himself written the text. It is a romantic carol, with nuances of contemporary Austrian folk and Italian pastorale music.Jacob de Haan maakte dit arrangement voor blaasorkest met eventueel een mannenkoor.
