It is true that tastes differ.
Coffee has known a long history : it has been drunk since the 17th century. On one hand people drink coffee for relaxation, on the other hand it is drunk to ward off tiredness or sleepiness.
‘Strong Coffee’ composed by Ron Gilmore works both ways. There will be people who will be able to relax during ‘Strong Coffee’, whereas others will experience it as a real boost. Is it a bit too strong after all, such a funky Soul Beat? Then adding a little milk might help.
As said before, tastes differ!

Zoveel mensen zoveel smaken.
Koffie kent een lange geschiedenis. Al sinds de 17e eeuw wordt deze drank genuttigd. Enerzijds wordt koffie gedronken voor de gezelligheid, anderzijds wordt koffie gebruikt als middel om vermoeidheidof slaperigheid weg te drinken.
Met ‘Strong Coffee’ van Ron Gilmore kunt u beide kanten op. Er zullen mensen zijn die bij Strong Coffee even bijkomen, voor de ander is het een echte opkikker. Is het toch een beetje te sterk,zo’n lekkere Soul Beat? Een scheutje melk helpt.
Smaken verschillen nu eenmaal.

Harrie Janssen composed Analecta Varia in memory of Henk van Lijnschooten (1928-2006).
He has been of great influence on the Dutch music for wind instruments.
As a conductor and as a member of the jury, but above all as a prominent composer.
Consists of eight sound studies that can also be performed separately. In each part a particular orchestral aspect is the central point.

The eight parts
1. Choral: ensemble in monophonic texture.
2. Air: relatively free line patterns combined with a constant pulse.
3. Pavana: constant rhythmicity culminating in an orchestral tutti.
4. Lullaby: dissonant harmonyabove an organ point in a filigree instrumentation.
5. Chaconne: color and virtuosity combined with a rigid pasacaglian theme.
6. Interlude: antithesis woodwind/brass and followed by a synthesis of the before.
7. Fugue: ensemble in a polyphonic texture.
8. Epilogue: final canto in a preponderating strong dynamic, where a constant euphony has to be pursued.

Analecta Varia bestaat uit acht klankstudies die ook afzonderlijk utgevoerd kunnen worden. In iedere deel wordt een bepaald orkestraal facet centraal gesteld.
Harrie Janssen componeerde Analecta Varia ter nagedachtenis aan Henkvan Lijnschooten (1928-2006). Henk van Lijnschooten heeft zich bijzonder verdienstelijk gemaakt voor de Nederlandse blaasmuziek, als dirigent, jurylid maar vooral als zeer toonaangevend componist.

1. Chorale: Samenspelin een homofone textuur.
2. Air: Relatief vrij lijnenspel gecombineerd met een constante puls.
3. Pavana: Constante ritmiek culminerend in een orkestraal tutti.
4. Lullaby: Dissonate samenklankenboven een orgelpunt in een filigraine instrumentatie.
5. Chaconne: Kleur en virtuositeit gecombineerd met een rigide pasacaglia thema.
6. Interlude: Tegenstelling Hout/Koper en een synthese hiervan.
7. Fuga: Samenspel in een polyfone textuur.
8. Epilogue: Slotzang in een overwegend sterke dynamiek, waarbij een constante welluidendheid nagestreefd dient te worden.

The composer writes: Pilgrim was inspired, it will be no surprise to learn, by reading Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress - Vaughan Williams's great opera on the subject had fascinated me from its first performance, yet it was a long time before I caught up with this essential item in any well-stocked library of English classics. It made a great impression, not least because of its theme of a journey of self-discovery, and a rediscovery or renewal of faith. These are ideas which have a strong interest for me, not in religious terms but in their application to every aspect of human life (including great journeys), and this piece reflects my response in musical terms to this concern. The tempo of the whole piece, which lasts about 18 minutes, is basically slow. There are two quick episodes, but these act somewhat like the trio sections of a classical scherzo, save that the tempo relationships are inverted (the classical trios would have been slower, not quicker) and the canvas is much larger, being that of a single, substantial, slow movement. The form of the whole is perhaps fantasia-like rather than having any relationship to classical forms such as sonata or rondo - some motifs and themes are varied as the work develops, and the opening chords are of primary importance throughout the work. There has been no attempt to convey any pictorial elements deriving from Bunyan's great book. There is, however, one feature which, upon completion of the score, struck me with some force, which is that almost all the thematic material is essentially striving upwards - there is a constant upward movement (sometimes over a lengthy period) throughout the work. Pilgrim was commissioned by the Luton Music Club for the Raphael Ensemble with funds provided by the Eastern Arts Board and Bedfordshire County Council, and is dedicated to the Luton Music Club. The first performance was given in Luton on February 10th 1997 and followed, as part of a joint scheme, by performances in the same week at the Music Clubs of Bedford and Leighton Buzzard.
