This 4-movement suite is based on authentic folktunes from the beautiful southern province in France: the Provence. The composer used an harmonic language respecting the popular characteristics, but on the other hand also contains some spicy notes (... just like the wellknown Provençal sauce! ...). The instrumentation is very colourful, paying a lot of attention to the different timbres of both brass and wood winds as well as to the percussion section.Every movement has its own character: Un Ange a fa la crido (= An angel brought the creed / credo) is like a bourrée, Adam e sa Coumpagnou (= Adam and his companion) is an old love song, Lou Fustié (= the carpenter)a fast dance and finally Lis Escoubo (= a whistle tune / popular ballad) is a farandole. In the latter, the old tradition of folk musicians who play a whistle with one hand and a drum with the other hand, is clearly represented during the first presentations of the one and only theme)Although this piece is not too demanding, a well balanced band is necessary to perform it successfully. Thanks to the contrasts and the varying colours, it keeps on holding the attention.

Dieses vierteilige Werk basiert auf alten Volksliedern aus der Provençe. Der Komponist verwendet diese Melodien in einer farbig instrumentierten Suite und braucht hierbei eine Klangsprache, die einerseits den volkstümlichen Charakter nichtverleugnet, aber andererseits doch ab und zu eine pikante Note enthält.Die Teile sind: Un ange a fa la crido, Adam e sa coumpagno, Lou Fusti en Lis Escoubo.

At the end of the 1960s the group Creedence Clearwater Revival wrote many successful numbers, many of which were covered by various artists. Proud Mary - one of their best known songs was covered many times and this arrangement by Thijs Oud is based on Tina Turner’s performance. For the musicians this is a fantastic piece to play. Each section has a challenging, yet satisfying part. For the audience this well-known and stirring number is a smash!

Die Gruppe Creedence Clearwater Revival feierte Ende der 60er-Jahre große Erfolge. Viele ihrer Titel wurden seither von verschiedenen Künstlern gesungen. Thijs Ouds Bearbeitung von Proud Mary, eines ihrer bekanntesten Lieder, basiert auf der Version der wohl berühmtesten Interpretin: Tina Turner. Die Musiker werden dieses Stück, in welchem jedes Register einen aufregenden, herausfordernden Part spielen darf, lieben und ihre Begeisterung auf das Publikum übertragen!

Au milieu des années 70, Anna Mae Bullock (alias Tina Turner) entame une carrière solo et réussit devenir la superstar du rock féminin. La lionne la voix suave offre des prestations scéniques hallucinantes d’énergie. Tina chante, se déchaîne lors de concerts légendaires. Proud Mary compte parmi ses plus grands succès.
