Fantasy-Variations on Two Themes (2017) for organ was written for Heinrich Christensen in celebration of his significant 2017 birthday. The musical material for the work comprises two different themes. The first is a short melody by the Danish composer Carl Nielsen (1865-1931). (It was a sketch originally intended for inclusion in, but ultimately left out of, Nielsen's late organ work 29 Little Preludes.) This theme represents Heinrich's native Denmark. The second theme is the American folk-gospel hymn Angel Band. This theme represents Heinrich's adopted American homeland. It serves also as a remembrance of our dear mutual friend Harry Lyn Huff (1952-2016), for whom the tune was a particular favorite. Both these themes are developed freely in a set of alternating fantasy-variations. The opening variation begins with a dramatic pedal solo before quoting both themes. The second variation is a lyric setting based on the Nielsen melody. The third is a jubilant hornpipe on Angel Band. The fourth is an aria on a transformation of the Nielsen melody. The fifth is a gigue-toccata on Angel Band. The sixth is an atmospheric contemplation: lush chords in the manuals move slowly and hint at Angel Band while the Nielsen melody is heard for the first time in its complete original form on a high pedal stop. The seventh and final variation begins with a brief evocation of the harmonies of the late Daniel Pinkham (a mentor to both Heinrich and me) before going on to return dramatically and jubilantly to the opening music, bringing together both themes again in a bold conclusion.

Capriccio Italien is based on Italian folk songs and was composed by Tchaikovsky in 1880. The work was inspired by his trip to Rome which he took with his brother Modest. Arranger/composer David Bobrowitz has utilized most of the capriccio’s themes in order to create a Fantasy that captures the essence of Tchaikovsky’s music. Although the music has been technically reduced for grade 3 players, it still retains all the fire and energy of the masterwork. The Fantasy utilizes a somewhat different ending then the original, but it will all sound like vintage sounds Tchaikovsky. And it makes for a wonderful selection that will appeal to players and audience alike!

“In celebration of the 40th anniversary of China-U.S. diplomatic relations and in hope to support the promotion of Chinese culture abroad, Peng-Peng Gong's (b. 1992) Tenth Symphony, subtitled 'Peking Fantasy' (Op. 55) was co-commissioned by the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra in 2017. The world premiere of the 2018 original version was presented by the SPO in April of the same year in Shanghai, while the world premiere of the 2019 revised version was presented by the Philadelphia Orchestra in January at its home venue with the combined forces of both orchestras side-by-side. Inspired by the artistic power of Peking Opera the crowning heritage of Chinese traditional performing arts, the symphony strives to translate the emotional and philosophical experience of the art form for international audiences and to explore the Western orchestra's expressive abilities in capturing the Eastern spirit. The 2018 original version ran as long as 76 minutes, before the composer extensively revised the score down to 40 and presented it in a single movement without pause. The work is scored for a huge orchestra of over 100 players. Main materials that inspired the music are from the traditional Peking Opera repertory: The Drunken Beauty, Farewell My Concubine, In Pursuit of the General, and The Chancellor and the Advisor (lit. Cao Cao and Yang Xiu). 'Peking Fantasy' is in a sweet, direct musical language ...It's a work of highly original sounds presented in a series of vivid episodes.” -Peter Dobrin, The Philadelphia Inquirer.

The Shakers were a sect who, in the 18th Century, sailed out from England to America. Right into the late 19th Century, the numerous songs of this community were handed down orally, until they were written down in various volumes of song collections. Philip Sparke’s fantasy for wind band is based on a selection of these beautiful, captivatingly simple songs. De ‘United Society of Believers in Christ’s Second Appearing’ was een van de religieuze groeperingen die in het 18e-eeuwse Engeland ontstonden. De zogenoemde shakers componeerden duizenden liederen, die veelal mooi zijn in al hun eenvoud. Ze werden van oorsprong mondeling overgeleverd tot er eind 19e eeuw voor het eerst bundels werden uitgegeven. Voor deze briljante compositie selecteerde Philip Sparke zorgvuldig enkele van de liederen uit deze bundels. Die Shaker waren eine Sekte, die im 18. Jahrhundert von England nach Amerika auswanderte. Bis ins späte 19. Jahrhundert wurden die zahlreichen Lieder dieser Gemeinschaft nur mündlich tradiert, bevor sie in verschiedenen Sammlungen niedergeschrieben wurden. Philip Sparkes Fantasie für Blasorchester basiert auf einer Auswahl dieser schönen, durch ihre Schlichtheit bestechenden Lieder. Le contenu de cette composition offre une belle palette d’émotions aux teintes énergiques, dynamiques et intenses, sans omettre toutefois des intonations poétiques empreintes de douceur et délicatesse. Une introduction majestueuse cède la place une ligne mélodique s’intensi_x001C_fiant peu peu en rassemblant l’ensemble des pupitres puis s’oriente vers un diminuendo. Lors du passage central, bois et cuivres s’interpellent joyeusement autour d’un thème festif.

The range of expression is wide, moving from dance-like rhythms -- making use of irregular meters -- to rather dreamy textures. Throughout much of the work, even in the softer, more fantasy-like middle section, the use of percussion -- gongs, cowbells, and various drums -- is prevalent. --N.G.

There are three movements in Fantasy Pieces that make up Robert Schumann’s Opus 73. Completed in 1849, he linked each piece harmonically. He directs the performers to follow on to the next section, indicating that these movements were intended as a whole. From a mood of delicate expression, through eloquent and lively, to fiery and urgent, this is a compelling and intriguing work. The Fantasy Pieces are full of Romanticism and thoughtfulness to make it an important and entertaining work.This version has been skillfully arranged for Euphonium and Piano by Ralph Sauer, retired Principal Trombonist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and is appropriate for advanced performers.

“André Jolivet (1905-1974) established his love for composition from a young age. This remained throughout his life, and he held the post of Professor of Composition from 1966-1970 at the Paris Conservatoire. Caprice Fantasy for Flute and Piano was published in 1954, and remains highly regarded. Jolivet, himself a cellist, wished to explore composition for all instruments, and therefore has a considerable number of works in all fields. The composer's style is also known for its spirituality, and the desire to associate the everyday with the magical, and the human with the universal. Jolivet draws on acoustics and atonality, as heard in his Caprice Fantasy. The piece requires advanced skills due to its use of complex rhythms and exploited tonality. For all advanced flautists, Jolivet provides an exciting, alternative piece for the instrument's repertoire.&rdquo.

When I was approached to compose a work for brassband and church organ I already envisioned the concept I would use. It would indeed literally become a work for brassband and organ. Without the traditional solos, the organ would form an addition to the brassband orchestration as would the brassband provide an extra register for the organ. In short a homogeneous entity. The most important reason for doing this is quite simple. Since this work can only be performed in a church and because of the specific acoustics of the church, the brassband would sound in al its tone colour like an organ. By using certain registers of the organ and combining these with the brassband a wonderfulsound palette can be created. The use of complementary or contrasting tone quality is also possible. The primary theme of this composition is based on these three methods of “colouring”. As far as structure is concerned this work consists of two parts. slow fast. It is built on a number of motifs in which some behave like a consecutive canon. In the fast movement the primary motif develops into a fugue-like section. The canon and fugato are techniques frequently used in classical and contemporary organ literature. The liberal use of structure and motif has lead to the title. “Fantasy for Brassband and Organ”. Jan Bosveld zegt:Toen mij gevraagd werd een compositie te maken voor brassband en kerkorgel stond mij direct een duidelijk concept voor ogen. Het zou inderdaad een werk gaan worden voor brassband en orgel in de letterlijke zin vanhet woord. Geen traditioneel solowerk maar het orgel als uitbreiding van de brassbandbezetting en de brassband als een extra register van het orgel. Kortom, een homogeen geheel. De belangrijkste reden hiervoor is simpel. Het werkkan eigenlijk alleen in een kerk worden uitgevoerd en een brassband, in een kerk met zijn specifieke akoestiek, klinkt in al zijn kleurschakeringen als een orgel. Door het orgel in een bepaalde registratie te laten klinken kan,in combinatie met de brassband, een prachtige mengklank tot stand worden gebracht. Ook kan worden gekozen voor een klank die aanvullend is of contrasterend. Deze drie manieren van “kleuren” is het belangrijkste thema van de compositie.Wat vorm betreft bestaat het werk uit twee delen. langzaam snel. Het is opgebouwd uit een aantal motieven waarvan sommige zich gedragen als een snel opvolgende canon. In het snelle deel wordt het belangrijkste motief uitgebreidtot een fugato-achtig gedeelte. De canon en het fugato zijn technieken die zowel in de klassieke, als de hedendaagse orgelliteratuur veel worden gebruikt. Het vrij omgaan met de vorm en de motieven heeft geleid tot de titel.Fantasy for Brassband and Organ”.

In China Fantasy Helmut Quakernack brings together two traditional Chinese folk melodies with their different characters with musical panache. The moving song is about a blind musician and the heartfelt love song come from the other side of the globe, but their melodies and harmonies sometimes sound surprisingly European. In China Fantasy vereinigt Helmut Quakernack, der China mehrmals musikalisch bereist hat, zwei traditionsreiche chinesische Weisen und deren verschiedene Charaktere auf klangvolle Weise. Das bewegende Lied über einen blinden Musiker und das innige Liebeslied stammen von der anderen Seite des Erdballs, ihre Melodien und Harmonien klingen aber zuweilen überraschend europäisch.
