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.

On the Coney Island Boardwalk was inspired by my years of listening to trumpeter Herb Alpert. The melody came to me when I was reminiscing about those summer days when I would take the subway out to Coney Island from my flat in Brooklyn. I'd spend the day roaming the boardwalk, hunting down used vinyl records in the second- hand shops, and always riding the old wooden Cyclone roller coaster at least once. What made Herb's trumpet sound like it was talking was his way of articulating each note, imagining they were words. If you really want to get your horn to speak, follow the articulation markings carefully. The Romantic tune My Girl alternates between swing and straight rhythms. The a capella B section should be played straight and with particular attention to the tuning of the intervals and the written articulation markings. This Cat Bugs Me - a rag - was inspired by the compositions of LeRoy Shield, one of the very first composers to write original music for Hollywood films. You can hear his music on the soundtracks for Laurel and Hardy and Our Gang comedies. As with all ragtime, don't try to play it too fast. Try to feel it as a march that swings. I don't recall where I got the title, but I suspect I was watching some old cartoons at the time. Grapplin' with the Apple should be played with straight quavers, not swung. In order to get real flavour out of this piece, pay close attention to the articulation markings, especially the combinations of quavers slurred to staccato notes. The apple referred to in the title is New York City, often referred to as 'The Big Apple'. Take it to the Shed - here's one to help you sharpen up your chops! Take it well under tempo at first to get the tricky passages as clean as possible, especially bars 45-47. Slowly work it up to speed as your technique allows. All quavers are to be swung and again, in order to get the most from this piece pay close attention to all articulation markings. The title is a jazz reference. When you take something to 'the shed' you're working on it to make it as fine as it can be.
