The opening of this three-movement work features an initial appearance of the thematic material that returns in various guises later on in the work. The leitmotiv centres on a minor second.
A range of thematic variations is heard in the lively and energetic Metamorphosis One. This movement is interrupted by an atmospheric meno mosso, containing melodic passages that return to the opening theme.
Metamorhosis Two is characterised by various changes in tempo and musical character. Seven different soloists transform the thematic material each in their own way. This eventually culminates in a passionate tutti passage.
The source of inspiration for Metamorphosis Three is the so-called BACH-motif, a musical autograph consisting of the notes B flat, A, C and B. This distinctive motif arises from the leitmotiv (here a descending minor second), which continuesto evolve through various transpositions and transformations. For the composer, this spectacular last movement is an homage to one of the greatest and most influential composers in the history of music: Johann Sebastian Bach.

An impressive contest piece commissioned by Brass Band Schoonhoven, performed at the 2014 European Brass Band Championships.

In de opening van deze driedelige compositie wordt het thematische materiaal gepresenteerd dat verderop in het werk in allerlei transformaties voorkomt. De ‘kleine secunde’ dient daarbij als leidmotief.
In het levendige en flitsende Metamorphosis One wordt volop gevarieerd met de thematiek. Het deel wordt onderbroken door een sfeervol meno mosso met daarin melodische passages die teruggrijpen op het beginthema.
In Metamorhosis Two treden veel veranderingen op in het tempo en het muzikale karakter. Zeven verschillende solisten transformeren ieder op hun eigen wijze het thematische materiaal. Uiteindelijk resulteert dat in een gepassioneerd, tuttigespeeld gedeelte.
De inspiratiebron voor Metamorphosis Three is het zogenaamde BACH-motief, een muzikale handtekening met de noten Bes, A, C en B. Dit karakteristieke motief ontstaat vanuit het leidmotief (in dit geval een dalende kleine secunde) en verandert voortdurend van gedaante door allerlei transposities en omvormingen. De componist beschouwt dit spectaculaire laatste deel als een eerbetoon aan een van de grootste en invloedrijkste componisten uit de geschiedenis van de muziek: Johann SebastianBach.

In der Eröffnung dieses dreisätzigen Werkes wird zum ersten Mal das thematische Material präsentiert, das im weiteren Verlauf in diversen Gewändern wiederkehrt. Kern des Leitmotivs ist eine kleine Sekunde.
Eine Reihe von thematischen Variationen ist in der lebhaften und energiereichen Metamorphosis One zu hören. Der Satz wird von einem stimmungsvollen Meno mosso aus melodischen Passagen, die zum Eröffnungsthema zurückführen, unterbrochen.
Metam orphosis Two ist von mehreren Wechseln im Tempo und im musikalischen Charakter geprägt. Sieben verschiedene Solisten verwandeln das thematische Material jedes auf seine eigene Weise. Das Ganze steigert sich schließlich zu einemfulminanten Tutti.
Quelle der Inspiration für Metamorphosis Three ist das so genannte BACH-Motiv, eine musikalische Signatur aus den Tönen B, A, C und H. Dieses ausgeprägte Motiv geht aus dem Leitmotiv hervor (hier ist es eine absteigende kleine Sekunde),welches fortwährend durch verschiedene Transpositionen und Transformationen weiterentwickelt wird. Für den Komponisten ist dieser spektakuläre letzte Satz eine Hommage an einen der größten und einflussreichsten Komponisten der Musikgeschichte: JohannSebastian Bach.

Le titre Metamorphosis décrit une transformation musicale – autrement dit, le processus qui commence avec nos origines (Initium), puis progresse à travers l’évolution du corps et de l’ me (Corpus, Animus) et enfin, gr ceà l’expérience de la vie (Virtus, Invidia), se développe en une personnalité adulte (Estasi).
Les musiciens connaîtront des états d’esprit changeants, entretenant la conscience de ce qui a été et de ce qui sera (le présent et l’avenir) tout en jouant. Les passages d’improvisation ont été délibérément laissés vierges –sans notation – afin de permettre à l’instrumentiste d’évoluer sans contraintes dans ce style musical et de laisser libre cours à son imagination.

The title Metamorphosis is on the one hand a metaphor for the development of the body and soul into a mature personality, and on the other hand it describes a musical transformation - a journey through musical styles and genres. Musiciansplaying this piece, which includes improvisational sections, also experience a transformation and development in themselves.

Met amorphosis kan ook worden beschouwd als een proces dat begint met onze oorsprong (Initium), dat verdergaat via de ontwikkeling van lichaam en geest (Corpus, Animus), en dat ons aan de hand van ervaringen in het leven (Virtus, Invidia) doetontplooien tot een volwassen persoonlijkheid (Estasi).
De muzikanten zullen tijdens het spelen een verandering in hun bewustzijn gewaarworden, waarbij ze een sterk besef ontwikkelen voor wat er is geweest en wat er zal zijn (het verleden en de toekomst). De improvisatiefragmenten zijn met opzet opengehouden (dus zonder notatie) om de speler de gelegenheid te geven zich vrij te bewegen binnen de betreffende muziekstijl – en zo zijn of haar fantasie vleugels te geven.

Der Titel Metamorphosis ist einerseits im übertragenen Sinn zu verstehen, als Symbol für die Entwicklung von Körper und Seele zu einer gereiften Persönlichkeit. Andererseits beschreibt der Titel auch eine musikalische Verwandlung - eineReise durch musikalische Stile und Genres. Auch die Musiker werden beim Spielen dieses Stückes, das improvisatorische Abschnitte enthält, eine Verwandlung und Entwicklung durchlaufen.

Symphonic Metamorphosis was commissioned by the Sierra Vista High School Symphonic Band, Las Vegas (NV). The composer was given free hand to choose the style of the new commission and originally planned to use the opportunity to fulfil a long-held ambition to write a set of variations on the famous chorale from Saint-Saens' Third Symphony (Organ); in beginning work he was so moved by the work's highlights that he decided to include more than just the chorale melody. Therefore, while Symphonic Metamorphosis starts out as an original set of variations for concert band, it is gradually subsumed by other elements in the symphony (particularly the slow movement), and the piece closes with a finale that has been reorganized and rescored from the majestic closing pages of the symphony.

Published in 2014, the Chrysalides for piano by Patrick Burgan (born in 1960) are the product of a commission by the Epinal International Piano Competition, which included the ten-minute piece in the programme of its March 2015 edition. The initially somewhat enigmatic tagline of these Chrysalides, which translates as ?imaginal variations for piano? is, in fact, an organistic metaphor, the chrysalid being the intermediary stage between the caterpillar and the butterfly?s final form, the imago. Following the path of this metamorphosis, Burgan?s imaginal variations start with chaos (pre-birth) and undergo all the evolutionary stages, which gradually clarify the image of the theme ? the imago, whose calm, appeased and completed form we only discover at the very end. The listener perceives an inversed theme and variations in terms of structure, but is also faced with the poetical evocation of a birth. Revealing the secrets of the metamorphosis through a musical language highly charged with sensuality, this piece is a celebration of life..

The butterfly is a powerful metaphor of second chances, rebirth, and metamorphosis. The butterfly, seemingly so delicate and fragile, actually migrates thousands of miles, and is thus a symbol of tenacity and resilience. Composer Ruth Brittin brings us a wonderfully thoughtful and poignant new work for String Orchestra.
