Five States
of Change was
commissioned by
Kunstfactor for the 4th
section of the Dutch
National Brass Band
Championships (NBK) 2011.
It is dedicated to Jappie
Dijkstra and the Music
Information Centre (MUI),
Arnhem, Holland, in
acknowledgement of their
outstanding work in
developing band
repertoire.The composer
writes: The idea for the
piece came when I was
reading an article about
a branch of Chinese
philosophy which is
abbreviated as Wu
Xing*, which has no
exact translation but can
mean, for example,
five elements, five
phases or five
states of change. It
is central to all
elements of Chinese
thought, including
science, philosophy,
medicine andastrology,
and in simple terms tries
to create various cyclic
relationships between
five elements in all
walks of life.An example
is: Earth - Metal - Water
- Wood - Fire - (Earth)
etc. where (in one cycle)
earth bears metal, metal
changes to liquid (water)
when heated, water helps
trees grow, wood burns to
create fire, fire
produces ash (earth) and
the cycle continues.I was
particularly interested
in the cycle of
emotions:- Meditation -
Sorrow - Fear - Anger -
Joy - (Meditation) etc.
and thought this cyclic
principle would provide
an effective emotional
journey for a piece of
music. So Five States
of Change has five
equal sections which
loosely characterise this
emotional cycle. I have
tried to make the music
grow organically, with
minimal repetition, and
each movement evolves
from the musical elements
at the end of the
previous one, with the
opening material
appearing, transformed,
at the end of the piece
to complete the cycle.

Works
of chamber music
including flute and
strings are not nearly as
numerous as those for
clarinet, or even the
oboe. Probably the reason
for this is the less
assertive, more pure tone
the flute possesses - it
can't compete for volume
or range with the
clarinet, except in its
top octave, and the
oboe's tone is more
penetrating and easily
discerned from within a
string texture.
Consequently, composers
who have written for
flute and strings have
done so in lightweight
divertimento works:
compare, for instance,
the delicate flute
quartets of Mozart with
his monumental quintet
for clarinet and strings.
When Karl and Joan
Karber approached me with
the ideas of writing a
work for flute and string
trio, I originally
thought it would be best
to write a humorous,
rather offhand piece -
but a look at their
repertoire (mostly
comprised of smaller
works of the Rococo
period) convinced me that
it was the last thing
they needed. In spite of
the challenge (or maybe
because of it?), I
determined to write a
large work, and a serious
work. Zephyrus (named for
the God of the West Wind,
in deference to the
flute) is a
three-movement work, with
each movement cast in a
very different form, but
all three being built of
the same twelve-note
series. There is also a
rhythmic motive and a
pair of themes that
appear in all three
movements. The
first movement plays with
the idea of contrast and
persuasion. The flute, at
the outset, is the
hell-for-leather
protagonist, charging and
swooping around the
strings - who seem oddly
unconcerned by his
passion. Indeed, they
have a more somber song
to sing - and as the
movement unfolds, the
flute becomes less and
less active, while the
strings become
increasingly enlivened.
By the midpoint, when all
four instruments are
finally in the same meter
and the same tempo, the
flute's energy has
finally infected the
other three players, and
this energy does not let
up until the movement's
abrupt final cadence.
The second
movement begins with a
tag from the first - as
if the energy left over
was too great to simply
stop. At length, though,
a very poignant flute
melody appears over an
almost bluesy harmony in
the strings. After this
has been fully exposed, a
slight increase in
motion, marked gently
rocking in triplets,
features a theme-fragment
from Leonard Bernstein's
Symphony No. 2 (Kaddish).
Bernstein died as I was
writing this work, and it
seemed quite natural to
encourage what was
already implicit in the
music, and create an
Elegy for L.B. The music
rises and peaks, then in
the recapitulation of the
opening the Kaddish theme
reappears, as the
ensemble suggests a
gentle song of sleep.
The final movement
is a Rondo-Variations
form, with the slight
alteration of adding the
main theme of the second
movement in what would be
the trio of the form. The
ritornello theme is a
kind of ethnic dance
music, almost an allusion
to the Klezmer ensembles
of Eastern Europe. The
successive episodes
between the ritornelli
are loosely organized
variations on the basic
theme, but always
beginning with a metric
modulation, a rhythmic
changing of gears. The
movement reaches and apex
of speed and furious
pulsing, then abruptly
pirouttes, and finishes.
Zephyrus was
written between April and
November of 1990 in
Austin, Aspen, and
Honolulu, and is
dedicated to Karl Kraber
and The Chamber Soloists
of Austin. --Dan

Koopman's new edition of
all 16 organ concertos by
Handel has drawn to a
close. The quality of
this edition has been
highly praised from all
quarters. Source-critical
responsibility goes hand
in hand with a high level
of performance practice
when Koopman provides
interpretative tips for
the ad libitum passages
in the organ part without
restricting the
creativity of the
interpreter who is
interested in stylistic
matters and prefers to
work out his own
solutions. I want to make
an edition that is not a
Koopman interpretation,
but contains only that
which Handel really
wrote. Nevertheless,
there are occasional
performance suggestions
in small print which are
elucidated in the
Critical Commentary. (Ton
Koopman in Concerto)
Koopman offers a
basically unmarked text,
thus leaving the
performance details up to
the performer. Especially
note-worthy is the clear
printing, extensive
preface and detailed
Critical Notes.
(Katholische
Kirchenmusik) Whoever
wishes to hear the entire
Koopman edition on CD can
look forward to the new
recording by Christian
Schmitt and the

This is the first
recording for which all

About the
Taiwan Fantasia, van
Deursen states: After
having lived in Taipei
for a number of years, I
learned many of the local
folk and popular songs.
Some of the melodies are
exceptionally beautiful,
and my idea was to
somehow combine all the
elements that have made
up my musical experiences
over these years -
Chinese melodies, western
orchestral music and
jazz; I wanted to see if
these songs could survive
with a totally different
harmonic structure and
concept. My original goal
was to write a simple
arrangement of the two
songs, but quickly I
discovered more melodies
building upon the
original ones and thus
the Variations were born.
Composed in 1995, this
work of about 10 minutes
in length is in one
continuous movement, but
is divided into seven
short sections of
contrasting moods
including two cadenzas,
for Trumpet and Trombone.
The music is appropriate
for advanced performers.
Parts in C and B-flat are
supplied for the
Trumpets. A recording of
Taiwan Fantasia can be
purchased on iTunes from
the album by the Yeh Shu
Han Brass Quintet.
