Journey of the Magi is a fantastical piece based on the well-known Christmas carol We Three Kings of Orient Are. After an introduction reflecting the nobility and Eastern origins of the travelers, there are three contrasting settings of the carol's verse and two of the chorus. The royal caravan then fades in to the distance as the three Kings continue their journey and search.

Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa in 1451. His father was a wool merchant. Originally he seemed destined to follow in his father’s footsteps, and thus sailed the oceans to countries as far apart as Iceland and Guinea.
In 1476 his ship was sunk during a battle off the coast of Portugal. Columbus saved his own life by swimming to shore.
In 1484 he conceived the idea of sailing to the Indies via a westward sea route, but it was only in 1492 that he was able to realize this plan.
On this first voyage he was in command of three ships: the flag-ship, called the Santa Maria, the Pinta, and the Ni?a. From Spain Columbus sailed via the Canary Islands to the Bahamas, whichhe sighted on October 12th 1492.
Without being aware of it Columbus discovered the ‘New World’ he thought he had landed in the eastern part of Asia. The motif from Dvoøák’s 9th Symphony ‘Aus der neuen Welt’ forms a little counterfeit history at this point in the composition.
After this first voyage Columbus was to undertake another three long voyages to America. These voyages were certainly not entirely devoid of misfortune.
More than once he was faced with shipwreck, mutiny and the destruction of settlements he had founded.
After Columbus had left for Spain from Rio Belen in 1503, he beached his ships on the coast of Jamaica. The crew were marooned there and it was only after a year that Columbus succeeded in saving his men and sailing back to Spain with them.
In the music the misunderstanding about which continent Columbus discovered in his lifetime resounds, for does this part in the composition not contain Asiatic motifs?
Poor Columbus! In 1506 the famous explorer died in Valladolid.

Christopher Columbus wordt in 1451 geboren in Genua als zoon van een wolhandelaar. Aanvankelijk lijkt hij voorbestemd om als koopman door het leven te gaan. Zo bevaart hij al een groot deel van de wereldzeeën tot landen als IJslanden Guinea.
In 1476 zinkt zijn schip in een veldslag voor de kust van Portugal. Columbus kan zich zwemmend naar de kust redden.
In 1484 vat hij het plan op om langs de “andere” kant van de wereld naar India te varen. Pasin 1492 kan hij zijn plan verwezenlijken.
Het vlaggeschip op deze reis is de Santa Maria. Het schip wordt gesecondeerd door de Pinta en de Ni?a.
Vanuit Spanje vaart Columbus via de Canarische eilanden naar de Bahamas,die hij op 12 oktober 1492 in zicht krijgt. Zonder het te weten ontdekt Columbus de “Nieuwe wereld”.
Hij verkeert in de veronderstelling in het oosten van Azië te zijn aangeland. Een stukje geschiedvervalsing vormt hier eenmotiefje uit Dvoøák’s 9de symfonie, ‘Aus der neuen Welt’.
Na deze eerste reis maakt Columbus nog drie grote reizen naar Amerika. De reizen verlopen zeker niet alle voorspoedig. Zo is er bijv. meermaals sprake van schipbreuk,muiterij en verwoesting van de door Columbus gestichte nederzettingen.
Als hij in 1503 uit Rio Belen weer richting Spanje vertrekt, stranden zijn schepen op de kust van Jamaica. De bemanning wordt daar achtergelaten.
Paseen jaar later weet Columbus zijn bemanning te redden en met hen terug te varen naar Spanje.
In de muziek klinkt het misverstand over welk werelddeel Columbus in zijn leven bevaren had door. Roept dit deeltje geen associatiesop met Aziatische klanken? Arme Columbus!
Christopher Columbus overlijdt in 1506 in Valladolid.

Bessarabia is an area of south-eastern Europe (modern-day Romania, Moldovia and the Ukraine) in which numerous “Shtetl,” or small Jewish towns, have been established over time. Bessarabyanke is a remarkable Yiddish themed work for concertband, composed by Sjaak van der Reijden. An ideal piece to close a concert with, or perhaps play as an encore.

Up tempo, levendig, vol vuur! Je ziet de klezmorim bijna voor je… Vol gedrevenheid luisteren ze met hun fascinerende klanken een joodse bruiloft op. Sjaak van de Reijden bouwt dit Jiddische thema op een buitengewoon spectaculairewijze uit tot eenverrassende concertuitsmijter. Het is geen toeval dat Van der Reijden ook trompettist en arrangeur van de klezmerband ‘Di Gojim’ is. Bessarabyanke: een heerlijk werk vol uitdaging voor alle secties van het orkes!

Bessarabien ist eine Region in Südosteuropa (heute Teile von Rumänien, Moldawien und der Ukraine), in der seit dem 18. Jahrhundert zahlreiche jüdische Shtetl“ entstanden sind. Ein jiddisches Thema ist es denn auch, das der Komponist inBessarabyanke auf spektakuläre Weise zu einem überraschenden Blasorchesterwerk ausarbeitete, das sich ideal als Konzertabschluss oder Zugabestück eignet.

La Bessarabie est une région du sud-est de l’Europe, partagée depuis 1991 entre la République de Moldavie et l’Ukraine. Elle comptait de nombreuses communautés juives au cours du 18e siècle. L’expérience acquise par le compositeur lorsqu’il était trompettiste et arrangeur du Klezmer Band Di Gojim aura indéniablement contribué l’écriture de ce thème yiddish. Une pièce idéale pour toute programmation de concert ou comme pièce de rappel.

La Bessarabia è una regione del sud-est europeo (oggi parte della Romania, Moldavia e Ucraina), patria di molti ebrei “shetl” nel corso del XVIII secolo. Ed è anche un tema di musica yiddish che il compositore arrangia superbamente per banda, creando così Bessarabyanke, un brano perfetto per chiudere un concerto o per un bis.

Diptyque is the French word for “diptych,” meaning a hinged two-part image. The first section of this two-part musical painting has an Oriental feel, with characteristic pentatonic melody lines and chords. The second section is a cheerful Saltarello dance that brings out the subtleties of the woodwind section. A juxtaposition of Eastern and Western music, Diptyque reminds listeners of the power of music in transcending all cultural, religious and political boundaries.

Dip tyque is het Franse woord voor ‘diptychon’, een ander woord voor tweeluik. Het eerste deel van dit muzikale beeld heeft oriëntaalse flair. Karakteristieke pentatonische melodielijnen en akkoorden voeren de boventoon. Hettweede deel vormt qua stijl en karakter een groot contrast, het is een levendige saltarello waarin de kwaliteiten van de houtblazers goed naar voren komen. En de muzikale boodschap? Deze prachtige combinatie van oosterse en westersemuziek neemt alle culturele, religieuze en politieke grenzen weg!

Diptyque ist das französische Wort für Diptychon“, ein zweiteiliges Bild. Der erste Teil dieses zweiteiligen musikalischen Bildes hat ein orientalisches Flair mit charakteristischen pentatonischen Melodielinien und Akkorden. Im Kontrast dazu ist der zweite Teil ein heiterer Saltarello-Tanz, der die Finessen der Holzbläser hervorhebt. Die Botschaft dieser Nebeneinanderstellung östlicher und westlicher Musik ist, dass die Musik alle kulturellen, religiösen oder politischen Grenzen aufzuheben vermag!

Diptyqu e est un titre parfaitement adapté cette composition en deux parties. Le premier tableau, majestueux, s’inspire d’une ancienne chanson enfantine intitulée Akkatobai, et dont l’origine est rattachée la ville de Nagasaki. Le second tableau offre un joyeux contraste en termes de style et tempo. Gai et lumineux, il reflète l’île méridionale de Kyushu, où se trouve Nagasaki. Une légère et allègre saltarelle met en valeur la virtuosité des bois. La juxtaposition des deux volets de ce diptyque symbolise l’entente.

Diptyque è un titolo perfetto per questa composizione in due parti. La prima, dal carattere maestoso, s’ispira ad un’antica canzone per bambini chiamata Akkatobai, originaria della citt giapponese di Nagasaki. Il secondo affresco offre un vivace contrasto in termini di stile e tempi. Gaio e luminoso, esso riflette l’isola di Kyushu nel sud del Giappone. La giustapposizione delle due parti di questo dittico vuole rappresentare l’intesa tra oriente e occidente, evocando al contempo l’universalit della musica.

What determines the special character of a piece of music written for percussion instruments is the very choice of sets of instruments. InUdacrepAkubrad< /strong>, I have chosen a similar set of instruments for each of the players: a marimba, two Darbuka, and a tom-tom. This piece draws its inspiration from the “Eastern” music, extending the boundaries of theregion as faras the Indian sub-continent. The main source materials in this piece are scales and the rhythms emanating from the traditional classical music of the peoples of the Mediterranean; and repetitive minimalism, from themusictradition of the Middle East, as well as the recently developed techniques in western music. — Avner Dorman

An advanced-level violin method supplement for both professional and amateur violinists. The studies in this book are more intensive and powerful than most traditional violin studies. Double-stop trills are introduced here for technical training, and the finger stretching exercises for the left hand are pushed to the limit. The mixed single-stops, double-stops, and chords are also highly effective bowing exercises. All these innovative studies offer a great opportunity for students to build up their technique more efficiently. In some studies, a new synthesis of Eastern and Western music is shown, unveiling a new type of music to Western audience.
