Many of Grieg’s compositions have a strong Norwegian character and the three songs used for this suite are no exception. The first movement Fremad!, Fremad! has a majestic character, the second, Stille Nu, sounds rather sad due to its minor key, and the final movement, Fola Fola, Blakken is a cheerful allegro. Bring a bit of Scandinavian magic to your concert with this exciting suite.

Die Titel der Lieder lauten: 1. Fremad!, Fremad! 2. Stille Nu! und 3. Fola, Fola, Blakken. Das erste Lied hat einen majestätischen Charakter, während das Zweite eher traurig klingt, was vor allem von seiner Molltonalität her rührt. Diese kleine dreiteilige Suite endet in einem fröhlichen Allegro.

Tre melodie norvegesi di Edvard Grieg: Fremad!, Fremad!, una canzone dal carattere maestoso, Stille Nu!, più malinconica per la sua tonalit minore e Folo, Fola, Blakken, un allegro gioioso.

The Mythology Suite consists of three movements of my Mythology Symphony, which I arranged for large wind ensemble. The arrangements of The Lovely Sirens and Penelope Waits were commissioned by James Ripley and Carthage College for the Carthage Wind Orchestra's 2017 Japan tour. I added Pandora Undone to complete the set; Stephen Squires and the Chicago College of Performing Arts gave the premiere of the entire Suite in February 2017. Movement 1: The Lovely Sirens The Sirens were sea nymphs, usually pictured as part woman and part bird, who lived on a secluded island surrounded by rocks. Their enchanting song was irresistible to passing sailors, who were lured to their deaths as their ships were destroyed upon the rocks. The Lovely Sirens presents three ideas: the Sirens' beautiful song, an unfortunate group of sailors whose course takes them near the island, and the disaster that befalls the sailors. The sailors' peril is represented by the Morse code S.O.S. signal (three dots, three dashes, and three dots--represented musically by short and long rhythms). The S.O.S. signal grows increasingly more insistent and distressed as it becomes obvious that the sailors, smitten with the voices of the Sirens, are headed for their demise. Movement 2: Penelope Waits This quiet movement represents Queen Penelope, the faithful wife of Odysseus, as she patiently waits twenty years for her husband's return from fighting the Trojan Wars. Penelope herself is represented as an oboe. She is accompanied by the ensemble as she keeps at bay the suitors who wish to marry her and inherit her riches. Movement 3: Pandora Undone This movement is, in turns, both lighthearted and serious. The music depicts a young, naive Pandora who, while dancing around her house, spies a mysterious box. She tries to resist opening it, but her curiosity ultimately gets the best of her. When she cracks the lid open and looks inside, all evils escape into the world. Dismayed by what she has done, she looks inside the box once more. She discovers hope still in the box and releases it to temper the escaped evils and assuage mankind's new burden.

Six Panoramas, a six-part suite by French composer Pascal Proust, sends six greetings in sound from all over the world in the form of panoramic postcards. The locations range from the famous Grand Canyon and the Mediterranean island of Santorini all the way to Fiji in the South Pacific. As per standard in the Music Box series, the flexible instrumentation of both the wind and percussion parts allows us to revisit these dream destinations in a new light again and again.

1. Emerald Isle, in this part, the musical spotlight focuses in on the green island of Ireland and its great wealth of traditional folk music. The piece opens with the air ‘My Lodging Is on the Cold Ground’, also known under the title ‘Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms’ (bars 5-24). Next, we hear another well-known air ‘The Minstrel Boy’ (bars 29-44). Finally, the air ‘The Groves of Blarney’, possibly better known as ‘The Last Rose of Summer’ (bars 53-68) is heard. Each air is heralded by a short introduction and brought to an end by a short conclusion. 2. Old Kentucky Memories, following an introduction of 14 bars all attention is claimed by the song ‘My Old Kentucky Home’. As the piece goes on, snippets of memories emerge, fleetingly, surfacing fast, but quickly disappearing again: this is musically featured by way of small motifs and themes from other songs. These can be heard briefly, and then they disappear, musing on Old Kentucky until the introduction returns to end the piece. 3. Uppland, is a province in Sweden that had a rich folk music culture, like the whole of Sweden, that boasts many songs and dances. A notable amount of these songs and dances have been composed in minor keys, three of which feature in this part. First, we hear ‘Svensk folkvisa’(bars 1-38), followed by the famous ‘Värmlandsvisan’ (bars 39-67) and then brought to an end by ‘Vexelsang’ (bars 68-end). 4. Ratatouille, in this part, no folk songs of just one country or one province are featured. This piece is a mishmash (or ratatouille), a hotchpotch of three folk songs with no significant relation at all. In succession, we hear a song from Russia (bars 1-30), one from Japan (bars 31-58) and one from Australia (bars 59-end). The composer of the Russian song titled ‘The Nightingale’ is Alexander Alyabyev (1787 1851), but the composers of the Japanese song titled ‘Sakura’ and the Australian ‘Waltzing Matilda’ are unknown.

1. Emerald Isle, in dit deel zijn de muzikale schijnwerpers gericht op het groene eiland Ierland, op de grote rijkdom aan traditionele volksmuziek. Het werkje opent met de air ‘My Lodging Is on the Cold Ground’, ook bekend onder de titel ‘Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms’ (maat 5-24). Daarna volgt de bekende air ‘The Minstrel Boy’ (maat 29-44). En ten slotte horen we nog de air ‘The Groves of Blarney’, misschien beter bekend als ‘The Last Rose of Summer’ (maat 53-68). Elke air wordt voorafgegaan door een korte inleiding en beëindigd met een korte afsluiting. 2. Old Kentucky Memories, na een inleiding van 14 maten (deels ook als afsluiting van dit deel gebruikt) wordt alle aandacht opgeëist door de song ‘My Old Kentucky Home’. Al gauw doemen er echter flarden van herinneringen op, vluchtig, snel opkomend, maar ook weer snel verdwijnend: dit krijgt muzikaal gestalte door middel van motiefjes en thema’s uit andere songs. Deze zijn even hoorbaar en dan weer vlug verdwenen... Mijmeren over Old Kentucky dus... 3. Uppland, is een provincie in Zweden met een rijke muziekcultuur, zoals heel Zweden trouwens ruim bedeeld is met volksliederen en volksdansen. Opvallend veel van deze liederen en dansen zijn gecomponeerd in mineurtoonsoorten. Dit is ook het geval met de drie voor dit deel uitgekozen songs: als eerste ‘Svensk folkvisa’(maat 1-38), gevolgd door het bekende ‘Värmlandsvisan’ (maat 39-67) en tot besluit ‘Vexelsang’ (maat 68-slot). 4. Ratatouille, in dit deel worden geen volksliedjes van één land of één provincie belicht. Dit werkje is een ‘ratjetoe’ (ratatouille), een allegaartje van drie folksongs die onderling geen enkel verband met elkaar hebben: de enige overeenkomst is dat ze alle drie als volksmuziek bestempeld kunnen worden. Achtereenvolgens klinkt er een lied uit Rusland (maat 1-30), uit Japan (maat 31-58) en uit Australië (maat 59-slot). Van het Russische lied met de titel ‘De nachtegaal’ is de componist bekend: dat is Aleksandr Aljabjev (1787 1851). Van het Japanse lied ‘Sakura’ en de Australische song ‘Waltzing Matilda’ kennen we niet de componist niet.

1. Emerald Isle, in diesem Abschnitt richtet sich die musikalische Aufmerksamkeit auf die grüne Insel Irland mit ihrem großen Reichtum an traditioneller Volksmusik. Das Stück beginnt mit der Melodie My Lodging Is on the Cold Ground“, auch bekannt unter dem Titel Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms“ (Takt 5-24). Anschließend erklingt die bekannte Melodie The Minstrel Boy“ (Takt 29-44). Schließlich ist The Groves of Blarney“, vielleicht bekannter unter dem Titel The Last Rose of Summer“ (Takt 53-68), zu hören. Jede Melodie wird durch eine kurze Einleitung angekündigt und mit einem kurzen Nachspiel beendet. 2. Old Kentucky Memories, nach einer 14 Takte dauerndern Einleitung tritt das Lied My Old Kentucky Home“ in den Mittelpunkt. Im weiteren Verlauf des Stücks erscheinen bruchstückhafte Erinnerungen, die fast so schnell wieder verschwinden, wie sie auftauchen. Dies wird musikalisch durch kleine Motive und Themen aus anderen Liedern dargestellt. Diese sind kurz zu hören und verschwinden dann, während man über Old Kentucky nachdenkt, bis die Einleitung wieder erklingt, die zum Schluss des Stückes führt. 3. Uppland, ist eine schwedische Provinz, die wie ganz Schweden eine reiche Volksmusikkultur mit vielen Liedern und Tänzen hat. Eine große Anzahl der Lieder und Tänze, von denen drei in diesem Abschnitt enthalten sind, stehen in Moll-Tonarten. Zuerst hören wir Svensk folkvisa“ (Takt 1-38), darauf erklingt das berühmte Värmlandsvisan“ (Takt 39-67) und am Ende Vexelsang“ (Takt 68-end). 4. Ratatouille, in diesem Abschnitt werden nicht die Volkslieder eines einzigen Landes oder einer einzigen Provinz vorgestellt, sondern das Stück ist ein Mischung (oder Ratatouille“) aus drei Volksliedern, die keinerlei Beziehung zueinander haben. Zunächst erklingt ein Lied aus Russland (Takt 1-30), dann eines aus Japan (Takt 31-58) und zum Schluss eines aus Australien (Takt 59-Ende). Der Komponist des russischen Liedes mit dem Titel The Nightingale“ ist Alexander Alyabyev (1787 1851). Die Komponisten des japanischen Liedes Sakura“ und der australischen Melodie Waltzing Matilda“ sind unbekannt.

1. Emerald Isle (Île d’émeraude), cette première partie met en vedette la verdoyante île d’Irlande et son riche patrimoine de musique folklorique traditionnelle. Elle s’ouvre avec « My Lodging Is on the Cold Ground », un air également connu sous le titre « Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms » (mesures 5-24). Vient ensuite un autre air célèbre, « The Minstrel Boy » (mesures 29-44), lui-même suivi de « The Groves of Blarney », peut être mieux connu sous le titre « The Last Rose of Summer » (mesures 53-68). Chaque air est annoncé par une courte introduction et s’achève avec une courte conclusion. 2. Old Kentucky Memories (Souvenirs du vieux Kentucky), après une introduction de 14 mesures, toute l’attention se porte sur la chanson « My Old Kentucky Home ». A fil de la pièce, des fragments de souvenirs fugaces émergent, disparaissant aussi vite qu’ils se présentent : cette impression est créée par le biais de courts motifs et thèmes empruntés d’autres chansons. On les entend brièvement puis ils s’estompent, comme de lointains souvenirs du vieux Kentucky, jusqu’ une reprise de l’introduction pour conclure la pièce. 3. Uppland, est une province suédoise aux riches traditions musicales, tout comme l’ensemble de la Suède, qui compte de nombreuses danses et chansons. Beaucoup sont en tonalité mineure, et cette partie en comprend trois. La première est « Svensk folkvisa » (mesures 1-38), qui est suivie de « ‘Värmlandsvisan » (mesures 39-67), et la pièce s’achève avec « Vexelsang » (mesure 68 jusqu’ la fin). 4. Ratatouille, cette dernière partie ne comprend pas d’air provenant d’un seul pays. C’est un méli-mélo, une « ratatouille » de trois chansons folkloriques sans aucun lien. Il y a d’abord une chanson russe, « Le Rossignol » (mesures 1-30), puis « Sakura », originaire du Japon (mesures 31-58) et, enfin, « Waltzing Matilda », venue d’Australie (mesure 59 jusqu’ la fin). La chanson russe est d’Alexander Alyabyev (1787-1851), mais nous ignorons les auteurs des deux autres chansons.
