Par ADES THOMAS. In Three Studies from Couperin, Thomas Adès empathetically reworks three pieces by the Baroque composer into music that is distinctively Adès without dismissing the source material. The basic structures of harmony and duration in ?Les Amusemens?, ?Les Tours de Passe-passe?, and ?L?Âme-en-Peine? remain unchanged, but the retouching of rhythm, texture and orchestral colours reveals an enthralling music that could be no other composer. The Three Studies has earned critical praise and popularity, having received over 200 public performances in more than 20 countries since its 2006 premiere. ?Three Studies from Couperin, looks at the music as if through a kaleidoscope, the shattered pieces of the original tumbling around like glinting fragments of coloured glass.?

Arr. Wil Van Der Beek. Par HAENDEL GEORG FRIEDRICH. It is interesting to recall that Handel wrote Messiah, his most famous work whilst at the lowest point of his career, suffereing from fianantial hardship and depression. It was only composing that distracted him from this misery. In He Shall Feed His Flock, based on texts of Isaiah and Matthew, we hear praise for the peace that the Messiah has brought to earth. / Niveau : 2 / Musique pour célébration / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Florentiner Sinfonie'. Par RHEINBERGER JOSEF GABRIEL. Rheinberger began work on his second Symphony during his visit to Italy with his wife in 1874. He was commissioned to write it by an orchestral society in Florence – an indication that his reputation had already spread throughout Europe. The autograph score contains a poem by his wife Fanny, which in four sections expressed the moods of impressions of the visit which seem to underlie the symphony. Contemporaries praised particularly the ”beauty of the Adagio. ” The work is here presented for the first time in an edition based critically on the sources./ Répertoire / Piccolo, 2 Flûtes Traversières, 2 Hautbois, 2 Clar
