In The Pioneers
Philip Sparke salutes the
bicentenary of an
expedition by two all
time American heroes -
Meriwether Lewis and
William Clark. They were
commissioned by US
President Thomas
Jefferson to find the
headwaters of the
Missouri and a route to
the Pacific following the
Louisiana Purchase, which
doubled the size of the
USA. They set out as the
‘Corps of
Discovery’ from
Louisville, Kentucky, in
May 1804 and not only did
they succeed in reaching
the Pacific through
hostile territory, but
also found their way back
- in 3 years! The piece
is not descriptive of the
journey but gives the
composer the opportunity
to celebrate the 200th
anniversary of this
amazing feat. Add a
touchof the wild-west to
any concert with this
exciting work.
De
titel van dit werk
verwijst naar het begin
van het avontuur van de
‘National
Children’s Brass
Band of Great
Britain’, maar
The Pioneers is
ook een eerbewijs aan
twee helden van de
componist: Meriwether
Lewis en William
Clark,die twee eeuwen
geleden op expeditie
gingen in opdracht van de
Amerikaanse president
Thomas Jefferson. Ze
vertrokken vanuit
Louisville, Kentucky in
mei 1804. Ze slaagden er
niet alleen in om de
Grote Oceaan te bereiken
doorvijandig gebied, maar
ze vonden ook hun weg
terug - in drie jaar! Het
werk beschrijft deze reis
niet, maar geeft de
componist de mogelijkheid
om deze geweldige
prestatie te
memoreren.
Der
Titel ist ein Salut an
die Zweihundertjahrfeier
einer Expedition von zwei
Heldenfiguren des
Komponisten - Meriwether
Lewis und William Clark.
Ihre Expeditionstruppe,
bekannt als das
‘Corps of
Discovery’,
erforschte das
Quellgebiet des Missouri
und fand eine Route zum
Pazifik durch feindliches
Gebiet. Der Komponist
ergriff die Gelegenheit,
den 200. Jahrestag dieser
Meisterleistung zu
feiern, mit diesem Werk,
das sich auch wunderbar
zur Umrahmung Ihres
nächsten festlichen
Anlasses
eignet.
Il 30 aprile 1803
fu firmato il trattato di
cessione della Louisiana
tra la Francia e gli
Stati Uniti.
L’acquisizione di
queste terre permise agli
Stati Uniti di
raddoppiare la superficie
del proprio territorio.
L’allora
presidente Thomas
Jefferson incaricò
Meriwether Lewis e
William Clark di
cartografare le sorgenti
del fiume Missouri e
tracciare la strada verso
il Pacifico. Partita da
Louisville (Kentucky),
nel maggio del 1804, la
spedizione attraversò
interminabili territori
ostili, riuscendo a
raggiungere il Pacifico
per poi tornare alla base
di partenza al termine di
un periplo durato due
anni. Questo brano non
è un racconto del
viaggio, ma permette al
compositoredi commemorare
i duecento anni di questa
favolosa spedizione.
