SKU: BT.DHP-1033347-140

Composed by Jacob De Haan. Applause Series. Original Light Music. Score Only. Composed 2003. 32 pages. De Haske Publications #DHP 1033347-140. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-1033347-140).

This imaginative new work portrays the rich history of the textile industry through music. The decline of the industry is expressed in the opening slow movement with an authentic 12 bar blues. The second movement uses a jazzy rock style blues to show the optimism and solidarity of the mill workers and the final movement uses a strong vocal-style blues to look forward with optimism to the future.

Deze blues in twee delen verklankt de nagenoeg verdwenen textielindustrie in het oosten van Nederland. Aanleiding voor de compositieopdracht was de sluiting van de blekerij te Eibergen in Gelderland. Het werk begint met een meeslepende, langzame, authentieke blues die staat voor de vroegere textielindustrie - waaraan deze streek zijn identiteit ontleende. Daarna volgt een snelle blues in een jazzy rockstijl, waarin een hernieuwde identiteit het optimisme voor de toekomst weergeeft. Vervolgens horen we nog een klein stukje hang naar het verleden (‘Sing the Blues’), maar alles komt uiteindelijk goed in het krachtige slotakkoord.

Ein mitreißender, langsamer, authentischer Blues, gefolgt von einem schnellen Blues im jazzigen Rockstil: das ist The Blues Factory. Das Stück erzählt von der Geschichte der ostholländischen Textilindustrie, deren Niedergang sich im langsamen Teil des Werkes ausdrückt. Der zweite Teil zeugt mit seinen optimistischen Klängen von der starken Bindung dieses Landstrichs an seine Geschichte und von Hoffnung für die Zukunft. Im wehmütigen Sing the Blues kehrt noch einmal die Erinnerung an die Vergangenheit zurück, bevor das Stück sich mit einem kräftigen Schlussakkord endgültig der Zukunft zuwendet.

The Blues Factory dépeint l’avènement et le lent déclin de l’industrie textile de l’Est des Pays-Bas. Cette bipolarité se traduit dans l’œuvre par un blues lent, authentique et insouciant, suivi d’un blues aux inflexions de jazz-rock. Mais de la nostalgie et de la résignation renaissent peu peu l’espoir et l’envie de se tourner vers l’avenir qui, au travers d’un accord final brillant, semble optimiste et prometteur.

Marching Blues was written in the blues and swing-jazz style of the great big bands. It is an ideal show march that can be used for encores, popular performances, family concerts and much more. It is unusual in that it features a 28 bar solo for tuba, tenor saxophone, or baritone saxophone. From small ensembles to large bands, Marching Blues will bring great joy to all generations of performers and audiences at any occasion.

Marching Blues is geschreven in de blues- en swingjazzstijl van de grote bigbands. Deze ideale showmars is perfect voor toegiften, optredens voor een breed publiek, familieconcerten, enzovoort.

Van kleine ensembles tot grote bands zal Marching Blues bij elke gelegenheid veel plezier opleveren voor alle generaties muzikanten en toehoorders.

Exultation is a short and energetic concert opener that is similar to a palindrome. A fanfare opens the work, juxtaposing 3/4 and 6/8, reminiscent of Latin-American music. The main theme is first heard on the euphonium, horns and saxophones which is very bluesy. The contrasting second theme is short and spikey and played by the bass instruments of the band. A lyric melody emerges as the rest of the orchestra joins in. The second theme reappears which leads back to the ‘blues’ melody, which leads back to the opening fanfare. Palindromic!

Exult ation (Jubel) ist ein kurzes, rhythmisch und stilistisch abwechslungsreiches Eröffnungsstück, das in seiner Form einem Palindrom ähnelt: Nach einer Fanfare in einem fast lateinamerikanischen Stil erscheint ein bluesiges“ Hauptthema, das nach einer kurzen Ãœberleitung zu einem zweiten Staccato-Thema führt. Es folgt ein lyrisches Thema, sodann geht es rückwärts wieder zum Stacccato-Thema und dann über die Bluesmelodie“ zurück zur Eröffnungsfanfare und damit zum Anfang und Ende zugleich!

Exultati on est une oeuvre courte, rythmée et stylistiquement variée. Sa structure est b tie comme un palindrome, autrement dit, comme une forme particulière d’inversion. L’oeuvre débute avec une fanfare aux accents latino-américains laquelle succèdent un thème « bluesy », une courte transition, un second thème staccato et une mélodie lyrique. Puis le fil s’enroule pour revenir au début. Musique ou symétrie ? Telle est la question.

Exultation è un breve brano di apertura che offre diversit ritmiche e stilistiche e che nella sua forma ricorda un palindromo. Dopo una fanfara in stile latino-americano, appare il tema principale eseguito dagli eufoni, dai corni e dai sax, caratterizzato da accenti di blues che accompagna ad un seconda tema in staccato. Segue un tema lirico, prima di tornare nuovamente al tema in staccato e, attraverso una “melodia blues”, nuovamente alla fanfara di apertura e alla fine del brano.

While many get excited at the holidays, some people just can't turn that frown upside down. In this spirit comes a fun swing arrangement of Jingle Bells, written in a blues style. Your students will enjoy the laid back swing figures and the catchy melodic adaptations depicting the fun (maybe just a little??) it is to ride on a one-horse open sleigh. A 'downer' ending takes the blues to a whole new level — sure to be the highlight (and lowlight!) of your next winter program!
