Moonlight Serenade was composed in 1939, by Glenn Miller in his typically American big-band style. It was an immediate success and it even became the signature tune of Glenn Miller. The catchy melody has since been used in various films and television series. It has been performed in many styles, from romantic to swinging. The Flanders Recorder Quartet likes to play this work with a low recorder consort: tenor, F bass, C bass, great bass (each instrument then plays an octave lower). This gives the work a slightly “close harmony” feel. Of course the more usual line-up also does the music justice.

Moonlight Serenade is in 1939 gecomponeerd door Glenn Miller in zijn typisch Amerikaanse Bigbandstijl. De aanstekelijke melodie is in verschillende films en televisieseries gebruikt. In Frankrijk is de song populair gewordenonder de titel Dansez maintenant (1975) - in een uitvoering van Dave. Het Flanders Recorder Quartet speelt dii werk graag in laag blokfluitconsort: tenor, F-bas, C-bas, grootbas (elk instrument speelt dan een octaaf lager). Zo ontstaateen lichte close-harmonystijl. De muziek komt in de gebruikelijke bezetting natuurlijk ook uitstekend tot haar recht.

Moonlight Serenade wurde 1939 von Glenn Miller in dem ihm eigenen, typisch amerikanischen Big-Band-Stil komponiert. Es wurde schon in vielen Stilen - von romantisch bis Swing - interpretiert. Das Flanders Recorder Quartet aus Belgien, dessen Mitglied und Arrangeur Paul van Loey diese Bearbeitung schrieb, spielt das Stück gerne mit einem tiefen Blockflötenensemble: Tenor-, F-Bass-, C-Bass- und Großbassblockflöte (wobei jedes Instrument eine Oktave tiefer spielt). Dies verleiht dem Werk eine Art Close Harmony“-Gefühl. Aber auch die übliche Besetzung wird der Musik vollkommen gerecht.

Glenn Miller (1904-1944) fut l’un des plus grands chefs d’orchestre de swing américains de son temps. Le son mythique du prestigieux Glenn Miller Orchestra mêlant swing, jazz et improvisation est, aujourd’hui encore, célèbre dans le monde entier. Glenn Miller reste pour le public une véritable légende et ses airs les plus célèbres sont dans toutes les mémoires. En 1939, Glenn Miller composa Moonlight Serenade, une pièce dont l’idiome sonore est typique du style Big Band américain. Il présenta sa création pour la première fois sur la face B du disque Sunrise Serenade. Le succès fut immédiat. La mélodie fit l’objet de nombreuses reprises notamment au cinéma et latélévision.

Nel 1939, Glenn Miller compose Moonlight Serenade, un brano dal linguaggio sonoro tipico dello stile big band americano. Esistono oggi numerose varianti stilistiche di questo brano. Il quartetto di flauto dolce delle Fiandre privilegia suonarlo con strumenti che si sviluppano nei registri gravi: flauti dolci tenori, basso in Fa, basso in Do e un grande basso. Il brano rivela così una struttura in close harmony. E' anche possibile eseguire il brano con un ensemble strutturato in maniera più tradizionale.

Here, for Recorder Quartet, is a new version of Mancini’s classic montage of symphonic and jazz writing, Baby Elephant Walk. Written for the soundtrack of the film Hatari (1961) this is a sure-fire hit.

De filmmuziekcomponist Henry Mancini schreef het werk Baby Elephant Walk voor de film Hatari! uit het jaar 1961. Ook is het nummer gebruikt in de Disney-tekenfilm Jungle Book. In dit werk is het gelukt om een optocht van eengroep olifanten muzikaal uit te beelden. Mia Schmidt zette dit werk op unieke wijze om zonder het origineel onrecht aan te doen. Een zeer geslaagd arrangement voor blokfluitkwartet!

Den Baby Elephant Walk schrieb der Filmmusikkomponist Henry Mancini zum Film Hatari! aus dem Jahr 1961. Durch die geschickte Kombination von Blech- und Holzbläsern gelang es ihm, den Gang eines kleinen Elefanten musikalisch sehr plastisch darzustellen. Mia Schmidt setzte dieses Konzept in ihrer Bearbeitung des jazzigen Evergreens für Blockflötenquartett um.

Voici une nouvelle version de la marche dynamique d’Henry Mancini que l’on trouve dans la bande originale du film Hatari (1961). L’arrangement de Mia Schmidt pour Quatuor de Fl tes Bec parvient capturer le son particulier de Mancini qui combine l’écriture symphonique et celle du jazz.

Una nuova versione della marcia di Henry Mancini che troviamo nella colonna sonora originale del film Hatari (1961). L'arrangiamento di Mia Schmidt per quartetto di flauto dolce riesce a catturare il suono particolare di Mancini che combina la scrittura sinfonica a quella del jazz.

Recorder Quartet. Composed by Karel van Steenhoven. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Woodwind Ensemble. Classical. Softcover. 28 pages. Duration 6'. Schott Music #OFB 213. Published by Schott Music (HL.49018050).

ISBN 9790001158152. UPC: 841886013513. 9.25x12.0x0.093 inches.

In 1982 Karel van Steenhoven, founder member of the Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet, wrote this modal composition Silent Danger for his ensemble. It is an experimental and witty work, a play on tones, chords, sounds and unusual effects. The idea behind it is described by Steenhoven as follows: 'As long as music is without aim, it remains free, versatile, is developing; when it seeks an aim, it becomes rigid, gets stuck in repeated chords.' - a rewarding task for performers, and a composition worth listening to for the audience.
