What God does, is well done. Par GASTORIUS SEVERIUS. La mélodie du choral Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan (Dieu veut agir pour notre bien : Dt. 32-4) de Severus Gastorius (1646-1682) a inspiré de nombreux grands maîtres de la musique tels que Pachelbel, Telemann et Jean-Sébastien Bach. Roland Kernen en a réalisé un excellent arrangement pour Orchestre d’Harmonie. / Niveau : 2.5 / Hymnes et chorals / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par VAN BELCUM HENK. As the title suggests, this work is a partita: it consists of a number of variations on a chorale melody. The partita has been popular for centuries, especially when it comes to organ music. Henk van Belcum, who is active in the choir world, chose for his Partita Piccola the German hymn Wunderbarer König as a starting point. Partita Piccola consists of four variations and a choral setting. After a majestic opening fanfare, the second variation follows, based on a canon by Pachelbel. Händel’s Sarabande is the basis of the third variation. Next comes the chorale setting, after which the work ends festively with a dance that has been written in the form of a courante. PartitaPiccola is an asset for church services and for concert platforms. / Niveau : 2.5 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
