All in first position with straightforward rhythms and thematic parts for everyone, this poignant song arranged by Sandra Dackow will be a wonderful addition to any concert. The Girl I Left Behind Me first appears in 18th century Ireland, often known as Brighton Camp. It emigrated to the United States along with many other Anglo/Scots/Irish folk tunes and became a popular marching song for soldiers. During the American Civil War, soldiers in both the Confederate and Union armies sang it. A number of cultures have embraced this song, adding their own local lyrics.

Aggression, despair, but also hope for peace can be clearly heard within this work. In Banja Luka Jan de Haan reflects aspects of the former Yugoslavia, stricken by a civil war which brought terrible suffering to the people of this area. Banja Luka was written for the International Horn Festival in Leeuwarden in the Netherlands. Banja Luka is een stad in Bosnië-Herzegovina en kent een rijke geschiedenis, wat blijkt uit de vele bewaard gebleven bezienswaardigheden. Mede door zijn strategische ligging heeft Banja Luka achtereenvolgens onder Romeins, Turks en Oostenrijks bewindgestaan en ontwikkelde het zich in de loop van de eeuwen tot een belangrijk handelscentrum. De stad werd in 1969 door een aardbeving grotendeels verwoest en is daarna weer in moderne stijl opgebouwd. De naam BanjaLuka betekent bad van Lukas.Volgens het volksgeloof heeft de evangelist Lukas hier het beroep van arts uitgeoefend en geneeskrachtige bronnen ontdekt, die nog steeds in gebruik zijn.Deze compositie vertolkt de componist zijngevoelens ten aanzien van het in de jaren negentigdoor een burgeroorlog geteisterde voormalig Joegoslavië. Een agressieve inleiding stelt het conflict voor, waarna de saxofoonsectie het drama verklankt. Dit gedeelte mondt uitin een gebed, weergegeven door de trompet en de trombonesolist. Nadat hetconflict weer even de kop opsteekt, volgt een tamelijk lichtvoetig gedeelte, waarmee de hoop op vrede tot uitdrukking wordt gebracht. Dat deze hoop voorbarigis, blijkt uit het feit dat de heersers (uitgebeeld door de sopraan- en de altsaxofoon)anders beslissen. De strijdkrachten rukken vervolgens op en laten een spoor van dood en verderf achter. Het noodlot slaat bikkelhard toe: onschuldigemensen worden verkracht en vermoord en er vinden op grote schaal etnische zuiveringen plaats. Debevolking lijdt.Aggression, Verzweiflung, aber auch Hoffnung - all das kann man in Banja Luka hören. In diesem Werk verarbeitet Jan de Haan seine Überlegungen über das ehemalige Yugoslawien, über das ein grausamer Bürgerkrieg hinwegfegte. Banja Luka wurde für das Internationale Horn Festival in Leeuwarden in den Niederlanden geschrieben.

In the output of the long-lived 17th-century composer John Jenkins, the 32 'Ayres' for two trebles, two basses and organ have a special place. They were probably composed during the English Civil War, while the composer was in East Anglia, and his royalist patrons were subject to harassment by Parliamentarian forces. Though one of the pieces, 'Newark Siege', is a rare instance of programmatic music in Jenkins's output, the pieces in general are far removed from the lightweight dance idioms of the time, being full of contrapuntal interplay inspired perhaps by the consort airs of the court composer William Lawes. The four parts retain original note values, and correspond to the edition in Musica Britannica MB36, though the bass parts have alto clefs for the higher passages. The organ part, not included with the instrumental material, is played from full score in the parent volume.

Written for the Chapel Choir of University College, Oxford, Giles Underwood, Director of Music. This setting of Pireeni Sundaralingam's poem LOT'S WIVES (about the Sri Lankan Civil War that took place between 1983-2009) was written in June of 2023, during the war between Russia and Ukraine and four months before the escalation between Israel and Palestine. Bruce Adolphe describes the work: “As a composer, I was drawn to the way the poem looks back in time as the women look back on destruction, creating a temporal counterpoint of past and present. To set these words, I combined the sorrowful lyricism of looking back to the past with the fierce dissonance of present violence. The cello plays several roles: it triggers memory; it comments on the text and on the music that is sung; it provides accompaniment.”.

Concerto Omaggio to Franz Liszt by Manuel Blancafort, for piano and orchestra. It is the first work that the composer undertook after the blow that supposed the Spanish civil war. In words of the same Blancafort, Finished the war, my first composition, once installed in Sarria, was the Omaggio Concert, finished and released in 1944. It is the most spectacular success in situ that has obtained a work of mine .The work was released day 1 of December of the 1944 by Maria Canals (piano) and the Barcelona Municipal Orchestra, conducted by Eduard Toldra. The composer and music critic Xavier Montsalvatge wrote in La Vanguardia: Blancafort, unconsciously, has been surrended by melody avoiding preciosities, giving free rein to the sincerity and to the simplicity of his feelings, and has created this magnificent concert, in which subjects and harmonization are impregnated of a deep elegance.It requires a group of complete symphony orchestra with soloist piano and it is 40 minutes long.

Located in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Fairfax County has quite an interesting story to tell, from the times of the Revolutionary War to the Civil War, to its prominent position as one of the premiere suburbs of our nation’s capital, and most populous jurisdiction in Virginia. This piece serves to acknowledge the history of this region while representing its vibrancy and character. The opening patriotic soundscape offers a backdrop to the energetic piece that follows. A juxtaposition of those themes brings the piece to a close.
