From the composer's notes: (Written on) commission from the city of Beauvais, France, and premiered by cello soloist Jesús Castro-Balbi and the Beauvais cello ensemble (Jacques Bernaert, director) the summer of 2001 in the city that commissioned it. The range and the technical possibilities of the cello are astounding. I was attracted by the feasibility of having wide open, warm, lush harmonies in the ensemble set against expressive lines in the solo cello, with several dialogues between the solo and individual cellos emerging from the texture of the ensemble.

This major work from Alexander Goehr reflects upon the diametrically opposing roles towers can have. The composer writes 'Towers embody the idea of climbing upwards, in the spiritual as much as in the physical sense. Their destruction can be regarded as a punishment (or as a rescue from) man's overwhelming arrogance.'Using texts by Franz Kafka, 17th century mystic Jacob Boehme and Swiss writer Friedrich Durrenmatt, Goehr explores man's desire to build towers to draw closer to God whilst the works feel nothing but despair at the fruitfulness of such a task.

Antonio Vivaldi composed not only instrumental music, but also vocal music with equal sensitivity and enjoyment for the girls at the Ospedale della Pieta in Venice. The Laudate Dominum RV 606 dates from this period. This choral piece is simple and homophonic, but through multiple modulations into distant keys it acquires its own very special charm. Accents are placed in typically Vivaldian style, individual words emphasized, and the venerable psalm text is accordingly given a new kind of meaning by the composer.

Variations on a Chord was composed on the occasion of the second lustrum of the Dutch Brass Band Championships celebrated in 1990. The piece is the immediate sequel to Contrasten a piece which was composed in 1986, and which is performed all over the world. Not only was the final chord of this previous work used as a starting point for the new composition, but Variations on a Chord is also the first concert piece for brass band composed by Jan de Haan since then. The several variations are based on a solemn theme. The so-called minor-major seventh chord is easily detectable. The structure of the piece is such that the lyrical theme is preceded by a majestic introduction, and isfollowed by eight variations each strongly contrasting in character. The piece finishes in a short but extremely spectacular coda. Dit werk is een directe opvolger van het in 1986 geschreven Contrasten. Niet alleen vormde het slotakkoord van dit laatstgenoemde werk het uitgangspunt voor deze compositie. Variations on a Chord is tevens het tweedenadien geschreven concertwerk voor brassband van Jan de Haan. De verschillende variaties zijn gebaseerd op een gedragen thema. In dit thema, voorafgegaan door een majestueuze introductie is duidelijk de karakteristiek van het zogenaamdeklein-groot (of naamloze) septiemakkoord te herkennen. Daarna volgen acht qua karakter zeer verschillende variaties op dit thema.

Songs for Pigekor 4 edited by Phillip Faber and Jakob Faurholt (2017). From preface: With the series Songs for Girls we want to focus on the width of the same song and present the best rates from DR PigeKoret's repertoire. We have collected new and old Danish songs, and this booklet ranges from Carl Nielsen to Agnes Obel and Marie Key. DR Since the establishment in 1938, DR PigeKoret has been the mediator of the Danish song tax and has, with orders of both original works and arrangements, renewed the equal song. DR's music archive abounds with works and arrangements for girls choir, and every year there are even more. A selection of these songs we present in this series in the hope that they can be for joy and inspiration for other peers. Phillip Faber and Jakob Faurholt.
