The Odyssee tells the story of Odysseus, the undaunted hero.
In times long ago the blind poet Homer wrote this famous epic.
The Odyssey follows the Iliad, the story of the bloody war between the Greek and the Trojans. This battle endsafter ten years thanks to the Odysseys famous trick. the Trojan Horse.
The Odyssey is not a war epic, but a story about perseverance, loyalty, adventure, and the survival instinct of its ingenious hero.
In The Odyssey, Homer describes howOdysseus, the king of Ithaca, had to endure another ten years of affliction after the ten years of war in Troy before he could finally return to his home land.
During those years, his wife, Penelope, had to try and keep her many admirers away.These men not only wanted het hand but also the kingship. To prove her husbands worth, she played a trick: As soon as I have finished weaving this shroud for my father-in-law, Laertes, I will choose one of you to become my husband, she promisedthem.
But during the night, she secretly loosened what she had woven during the day, prolonging the time until Odysseus would finally return. After twenty long years, when he finally stood at the door, she wondered: Is this really my husband? Ishe an imposter? Cunningly, she asked him to move the bed, because only she and her husband know that the bed was immovable and was build around an old three trunk! Odysseus was deeply moved: this really was his wife, his Penelope!
Nearly threethousands years later, the loyalty and strength of this character, and all the dangerous adventures that Odysseus survived thanks to courage and intelligence, still moves us today.

Odyssee by Jan Bosveld is not just an adventure story, butrather a characteristic piece in which memories of Homers story can be heard.
The composition opens with a firm, stirring theme describing our hero, Odysseus, in detail: This man is not to be taken lightly.
The further development of thisshort introduction completes this character sketch: trustworthy, perseverant, and a genius.
After that we can picture Odysseus on the lonely beach of Ogygia. Do the trumpets depict his memories of the war of Troy? Does he think of his wife, as werecognise the weaving loom of Penelope in the murmuring eighth?
In the solemn, plaintive part that follows, we can imagine Penelope feeling lonely, sitting in the womens room with her servants.One of the girls plays the harp, but that does notclear the sombre atmosphere. Then we can imagine seeing the sorceress Circe, who changed Odysseus men into swine. After she gives a simple magic sign something follows that reminds us of the sound of pigs grunting. Then the Odysseus theme resounds:the hero comes to savi his comrades. Assisted by Hermes, he forces Circe to lift the spell.
The piece ends the same way as it began, with an animated theme: Odysseus is still the same, undefeated and not to be taken lighty!

Het muzikale relaas van de Griekse schrijver Homerus over de held Odyssee in een karakterstuk vol herinneringen.
Een stevig opgewekt thema symboliseert de grootsheid van Odyssee en zijn karaktertrekken - betrouwbaar, volhardenden vernuftig. De tegenslagen welke hij tegenkomt en in het tweede tragische gedeelte dreigen te escaleren, nemen in het derde snelle gedeelte bij zijn verschijning toch weer een positieve wending.
Nijmegenaar Jan Bosveld bewijstin dit originele werk dat hij op de hoogte is van de onmogelijkheden, maar vooral de ongekende mogelijkheden van muzikanten uit de lagere afdelingen.

Legend has it that Edith Piaf, one of the greatest stars of the French music scene, was born under a lamp post in the streets of Paris and spent much of her lonely childhood roaming the streets, singing here and there in front of a fascinated audience. Out of the poor streets developed a singer who was to become the darling of French cabaret. A Tribute to Edith Piaf is a wonderful arrangement for concert band of four of the most well known songs of this romantic, spontaneous, desperate and everlasting legend.

Naar verluidt werd een van de grootste sterren uit de Franse muziekwereld onder een lantaarnpaal in de Parijse rue de Belleville geboren. Na een eenzame jeugd, waarin ze veel over straat zwierf en voor mensen zong, werd Edith Gassionontdekt door Louis Leplée. Van hem kreeg ze haar bijnaam, La môme Piaf (de kleine mus). A Tribute to Edith Piaf is een prachtig arrangement voor harmonieorkest van Roland Kernen. Het omvat vier van de bekendste chansonsvan deze tegelijkertijd romantische, spontane, wanhopige en onsterfelijke legende: Milord, Hymne l’Amour, Mon Manège Moi en La Vie en Rose.

Die Legende um Edith Piaf, den Spatz von Paris“ besagt, dass sie aus ärmsten Verhältnissen kam und ihre Karriere auf der Straße begann. Aus der armen Straßensängerin wurde die wohl berühmteste Chansonsängerin aller Zeiten. A Tribute to Edith Piaf ist ein wundervolles Medley für Blasorchester von Roland Kernen aus vier der bekanntesten Lieder dieser unsterblichen Legende.

Le 19 décembre 1915, Paris a vu naître sous un lampadaire de la rue de Belleville (si l’on en croit la légende), une étoile de la chanson française. Enfant délaissée, Edith Gassion sillonne seule les quartiers de Paris, en chantant ici et l devant un public fasciné, avant d’être remarquée par Louis Leplée qui l’accueille de son cabaret et qui pose sur cette voix unique un nom voué l’immortalité, la môme Piaf (FAM. moineau), symbole de la fragilité physique du personnage. Mais du haut de ses 1,47 m, elle séduit le Tout-Paris de l’entre-deux guerres puis cristallise autour d’elle le public international. La môme Piaf devient alors définitivement Edith Piaf, lacoqueluche des intellectuels, l’amie des grands chansonniers tels que Maurice Chevalier, Mistinguett, Lucienne Delisle et André Claveau. Artiste célébrée dans le monde entier, femme tourmentée et déchirée, Edith Piaf cessera de chanter le 11 octobre 1963.Avec A Tribute to Edith Piaf (“Hommage Edith Piaf”), Roland Kernen signe un superbe arrangement pour Orchestre d’Harmonie de quatre des plus célèbres chansons de cette légende immortelle, romantique, spontanée et désespérée : Milord, Hymne l’Amour, Mon Manège Moi et La Vie en Rose.

Composed by Carl Wittrock. Set (Score & Parts). 84 pages. Gobelin Music Publications #GOB 000753-010. Published by Gobelin Music Publications (BT.GOB-000753-010).

As he did before in the often played and commonly appreciated ‘Lord Tullamore’, in which he poetically depicted the landscape and the cultural elements of a small Irish village, in his composition ‘The Road to the West’ Carl Wittrock has sketched pioneer existence in America in a cinematic manner.
In ‘The Road to the West’ the composer has tried to capture images of pioneer life during the period dating from 1850 to 1890, the days of the so-called Wild West.
In those days, the Wild West used to be the territory west of civilization, the domain of cowboys, trappers, and other fortune hunters.
In short, ample ingredients for a captivating story.

In the firstscene a lonely adventurer struggles against nature and the elements.
After an exciting adventure he passes through ‘the Plains’, where majestic views alternated by colossal mountain ranges display an almost unimaginable beauty.
After weeks of isolation civilization is reached again.
‘The Saloon’ is the perfect meeting place here news is exchanged and hilarious scenes regularly take place.

In navolging van het veel gespeelde en alom gewaardeerde ‘Lord Tullamore’, waarin Carl Wittrock op poëtische wijze landschap en culturele elementen van een Iers dorpje verklankt, wordt in ‘The Road to the West’ op filmische wijzehet pioniersbestaan in Amerika geschetst.
De componist betreedt in ‘The Road to the West’ het pionierspad in de periode tussen 1850 en 1890, de tijd van het Wilde Westen.
Het Wilde Westen was het gebied ten westen van de beschaving,het domein van cowboys, pelsjagers en andere gelukzoekers.
Genoeg ingrediënten voor een boeiend verhaal.

In de eerste scene gaat een avonturier, eenzaam en alleen, de strijd aan met de natuur en de elementen.
Na een spannend avontuur trekt hij door ‘the Plains’, waar de weidse vergezichten, afgewisseld door kolossale bergformaties een bijna niet onder woorden te brengen schoonheid tentoonspreiden.
Na weken van eenzaamheid komttenslotte de bewoonde wereld weer in beeld.
‘The Saloon’ is de ontmoetingsplek bij uitstek. Hier worden ervaringen uitgewisseld en spelen zich vaak hilarische taferelen af.
