“'Wha t's important in music that's based on a poem ' on the emotion inspired by a poem ' is the music and power of emotion it harbours within itself'. These words, written in 1949 by poet Pierre Reverdy, would make a deep impression on composer Betsy Jolas. She'd just sent the writer her Six mélodies for mezzo-soprano and piano composed on poems from his masterwork Plupart du temps. The songs were accompanied by a letter that betrayed her fear of distorting his ideas. In creative terms, there was no need to worry ' Betsy Jolas must have placed this conviction at the heart of her reflection on the relation between text and music. Nearly sixty years later, the musician decided to take several fragments of these beloved poems of Reverdy and place them, in the form of quotations, into new musical and theatrical perspectives. The exalted memory of the words led to D'Un Journal D'Amour, a mini-cantata for Voice and Alto offered as a wedding gift to soprano Eliette Prévôt and violist Antoine Tamestit, who premiered it together in Montreuil in 2010.&rdquo.

'I responded to this exciting but rather daunting commission by writing a very lively and I hope very accessible piece, which, I decided before I started composing, should be full of tunes. I wrote it in memory of my dear friend Sheila MacCrindle, who died in 1993... although this partita is in her memory, it never occurred to me to make it gloomy or dirge-like; that is not how I remember her.'

George Nicholson 's ten minute 2013 piece Tronie , arranged for solo Piano. This solo Piano piece was written in 2013. It is a response to Rembrandt's astonishing portrait of his mother painted when he was in his early twenties and at a time when she would have been about sixty and therefore described as an 'old woman'. It may have been intended rather as a generic depiction of the ravages of old age a 'tronie' or genre painting but it strikes me as being a very moving and vividly characterised study of a real living individual, a penetratingly honest and unflinching portrayal at that. In Tronie I have attempted to make a musical statement about old age not only thefrailty, the loss of powers and the resignation, but also the pride and defiance of the old. The piece is dedicated to the memory of my mother-in-law, Andy Ginsborg, who died in February 2013. - George Nicholson.

Commi ssioned by the Midway High School Band, NC Joshua Tew and Jesse Shelton, Directors Commission funded by the Simple Gifts Grant Fund (Clinton, NC) In memory of Deborah Tew, mother of Joshua Tew This composition is a great concert opener or festival selection for a young band. Beginning with a joyful motive and lots of featured percussion, it uses sudden dynamic changes and a dark middle section to create plenty of contrast and excitement. The ending begins very softly, building to a tension filled climax that eventually returns to the joyful motive from the beginning of the piece. Lots of fun for the musicians and the audience! Be sure to keep the tempo moving throughout--don't let it slow down or it will lose energy, especially in the soft sections. Keep articulations crisp and let the horns wail (doubles in altos). Make sure your percussionists observe the marked dynamics and do not cover the winds. Otherwise, this piece is very accessible, with reasonable ranges and rhythmic challenges. It may take a minute or two to balance the dark chords in the middle section, but it will be well worth it for the contrast. Have fun!.

On average, about eight thousand (mostly light) earthquakes occur worldwide each day. Composer Jan de Haan has always been fascinated by this natural phenomenon. Earthquake portrays the beautiful South-American peninsula, Isla Iberi which lies directly on a major fault line. The peace and tranquility is shattered by a major tremor and the terrified people flee in fear. In addition to showing the earthquakes destructive power, Earthquake also conveys the courage and faith of the industrious people of Isla Iberia, as they energetically start the reconstruction of their beloved residential area. Earthquake is dedicated to the memory of all victims of the devastating Asiantsunami which occurred on 26 December 2004.

Earthquake is een indrukwekkende en contrastrijke programmatische compositie over de impact van een zware aardbeving. De muziek is net zo imposant als het natuurgeweld zelf - en net zo aangrijpend als de ervaring van de mensendie het meemaken. Earthquake was het verplichte werk voor de hoogste divisie van de Nederlandse Brassbandkampioenschappen 2005.

Earthquak e ist eine beeindruckende, emotionale und kontrastive thematische Komposition über die Naturgewalt eines heftigen Erdbebens.

Earthquake (“Tremblement de terre”) résume la fascination de Jan de Haan pour les séismes, phénomènes naturels souvent superficiels, mais quelques fois destructeurs et meurtriers. La musique est aussi impressionnante que les forces de la nature, aussi émouvante que le désespoir des hommes.
