Foll
owing a recent experience
on the jury of a guitar
competition, I noted with
great pleasure that
Giorgio Mirto, with whom
I had shared the role of
juror, wanted to
celebrate the experience
of the competition -
during from which we
discovered that we had
had a great affinity of
thought - with something
which could endure over
time and not evaporate as
often happens in short
and occasional meetings
between musicians. He did
it as a true composer,
which he is, and
dedicated to me a very
beautifully crafted Suite
to which I allowed myself
to collaborate at least
formally, by suggesting
titles for the four
movements. This is how
Suite n.1 was born, a
piece that does not
strictly respect the
formal rules of the
Baroque era, but
reinterprets and reuses
them in a new key. The
work's obvious late
Baroque inspiration led
me to find titles that
invited the performer to
delve deeper into the
work's aesthetic
inspiration. So I
suggested to Giorgio that
he title the four
movements with something
that linked their content
to four greats of the
18th century. German
masters. The prelude has
thus become from Eisenach
because of its sometimes
improvised Bach-like
atmosphere, the second
movement, vaguely
toccata, speaks an organ
language in the manner of
Buxtehude (who lived in
Lübeck), the slow
movement has a Handelian
quality - and Handel was
born in Halle - and the
last movement, far from
being a true Chaconne,
undoubtedly has the
latter's taste for
variation and ostinato,
typical traits of
Telemann who lived in
Magdeburg. The cities
that appear in the titles
are therefore indelible
to the authors cited.
Furthermore, one should
not think that the style
of the work is in any way
German, given that
Giorgio Mirto expresses
himself in a very joyful
language that synthesizes
modality with minimalism,
all seasoned with a a nod
to Pink's progressive
rock Floyd. or a Mike
Oldfield... The result of
this mixture of ideas,
inspirations and styles
is a work that personally
I never tire of reading
and rereading, for the
freshness that emanates
from it and for the
climate expressive which
rises, nourishing itself
with full efficiency. We
ultimately cannot ignore
that the note B, the one
which marks in a minor
way some of the most
expressive works of the
guitar repertoire, from
the study of Sor which
made generations of
students fall in love
with the guitar, until to
that of Frank Martin's
Four Pieces via La
Catedral di Barrios, is
the modal fulcrum of the
entire Suite: it is true
that the Prelude begins
with a clear chord in E
minor and lingers on an
open ending in A minor ,
but it almost seems that
the initial E serves as a
launching pad for a
continuation of the work
in which the dominant,
that is to say the B, is
the true musical North,
the pole star which
guides us in the other
three movements until the
end of the Chaconne de
Magdebourg. I wish
Giorgio and our Suite
great longevity and a
favorable destiny in the
complex and complex world
of contemporary guitar
composition. And I thank
him again, flattered by
his very kind
dedication.

Roya
l Coronation Dances is
the first sequel to the
Fanfare Ode & Festival,
both being settings of
dance music originally
arranged by Gervaise in
the mid 16th-century (the
next sequel is The
Renaissance Fair, which
uses music of Susato and
Praetorius). Fanfare Ode
& Festival has been
performed by many tens of
thousands of students,
both in high school and
junior high school. I
have heard that some of
them are amazed that the
music they are playing
was first played and
danced to over 400 years
ago. Some students tend
to think that music
started with Handel and
his Messiah to be
followed by Beethoven and
his Fifth Symphony, with
naught in between or
before of consequence.
Although Royal Coronation
Dances is derived from
the same source as
Fanfare Ode & Festival,
they are treated in
different ways. I
envisioned this new suite
programmatically -- hence
the descriptive movement
titles, which I imagined
to be various dances
actually used at some
long-ago coronation. The
first movement depicts
the guests, both noble
and common, flanked by
flag and banner bearers,
arriving at the palace to
view the majestic event.
They are festive, their
flags swirling the air,
their cloaks brightly
colored. In the second
movement, the queen in
stately measure moves to
take her place on the
throne as leader and
protector of the realm.
In the third movement,
the jesters of the court
entertain the guests with
wild games of sport.
Musically, there are
interesting sonorities to
recreate. Very special
attention should be given
to the tambourine/tenor
drum part in the first
movement. Their lively
rhythms give the movement
its power. Therefore they
should be played as
distinctly and
brilliantly as possible.
The xylophone and
glockenspiel add clarity,
but must not be allowed
to dominate. Observe
especially the differing
dynamics; the intent is
to allow much buzzing
bass to penetrate. The
small drum (starting at
meas. 29) should be
played expressively, with
attention to the notated
articulations, with the
brass light and detached,
especially in a lively
auditorium. It is of some
further interest that the
first dance is extremely
modal. The original is
clearly in G mixolydian
mode (scale:
G-A-B-C-D-E-F-G).
However, other editors
might put in F-sharps in
many places (changing the
piece almost to G major),
in the belief that such
ficta would have been
automatically put in by
the 16th-century
performers as they
played. I doubt it. I
have not only eschewed
these within the work,
but even at the cadences.
So this arrangement is
most distinctly modal
(listen to the F-naturals
in meas. 22 and 23, for
instance), with all the
part-writing as Gervaise
wrote it. In the second
movement, be careful that
things do not become too
glued together. In the
16th century this music
might have been played by
a consort of recorders,
instruments very light of
touch and sensitive to
articulation. Concert
band can easily sound
heavy, and although this
movement has been scored
for tutti band, it must
not sound it. It is
essential, therefore,
that you hear all the
instruments, with none
predominating. Only when
each timbre can be heard
separately and
simultaneously will the
best blend occur, and
consequently the greatest
transparency. So aim for
a transparent, spacious
tutti sound in this
movement. Especially have
the flutes, who do this
so well, articulate
rather sharply, so as to
produce a chiffing sound,
and do not allow the
quarter-notes to become
too tied together in the
entire band. The entrance
of the drums (first
tenor, then bass) are
events and as such should
be audible. Incidentally,
this movement begins in F
Major and ends in D
Minor: They really didn't
care so much about those
things then. The third
movement (one friend has
remarked that it is the
most Margolisian of the
bunch, but actually I am
just getting subtler, I
hope) again relies upon
the percussion (and the
scoring) to make its
points. Xylophone in this
movement is meant to be
distinctly audible.
Therefore, be especially
sure that the xylophone
player is secure in the
part, and also that the
tambourine and toms sound
good. This movement must
fly or it will sink, so
rev up the band and
conduct it in 1 for this
mixolydian jesting. I
suppose the wildly
unrelated keys (clarinets
and then brass at the
end) would be a good
16th-century joke, but to
us, our
put-up-the-chorus-a-half-
step ears readily accept
such shenanigans.

commission is a highlight
in the 30-year friendship
between composer and
soloist, which has
included many mutual CD
projects and concerts
and, now, a concerto.
Sparke had Steven Mead's
special euphonium sound
in his head throughout
the composition process
and made free use of the
variety of styles which
the world-renowned
virtuoso has made his own
during his highly
successful solo
career.The village
ofMorschied lies to the
west of Frankfurt am Main
in the area known as the
German Road of Precious
Stones, which is famous
for its thriving gem
industry. Because of this
it was decided to give
the commission a local
connection by choosing
the title, Diamond
Concerto. Each of the
three movements is named
after a famous diamond:1
EARTH STARis rather stern
in mood, opening with a
free fantasy for the
soloist over a static
chord from the band. This
leads to an Allegro
Moderato in minor mode
where small motives are
gradually repeated and
developed by both band
and soloist.2 OCEAN

from the composer's
Music for Battle

melting slow melody that
was originally written
with Steven Mead in

written, at Steven Mead's

of a jazz waltz. The

Diamond
Concerto was
commissioned by
Musikverein Mörschied
from Germany - Dr. Eric
Grandjean, conductor -
for a special concert
featuring Steven Mead as
guest soloist. Together
they gave the world
premiere on 28th April
2012 in the town theatre
of Idar-Oberstein.The
commission is a highlight
in the 30-year friendship
between composer and
soloist, which has
included many mutual CD
projects and concerts
and, now, a concerto.
Sparke had Steven
Mead’s special
euphonium sound in his
head throughout the
composition process and
made free use of the
variety of styles which
the world-renowned
virtuoso has made his own
during his highly
successful solo
career.The village
ofMörschied lies to
the west of Frankfurt am
Main in the area known as
the German Road of
Precious Stones, which is
famous for its thriving
gem industry. Because of
this it was decided to
give the commission a
local connection by
choosing the title,
Diamond Concerto.
Each of the three
movements is named after
a famous diamond:1 EARTH
STARis rather stern in
mood, opening with a free
fantasy for the soloist
over a static chord from
the band. This leads to
an Allegro Moderato in
minor mode where small
motives are gradually
repeated and developed by
both band and soloist.2
OCEAN DREAMuses a varied
quote from the
composer’s
Music for Battle
Creek, including a
melting slow melody that
was originally written
with Steven Mead in
mind.3 BLUE HEARTwas
written, at Steven
Mead’s suggestion,
in bebop style and takes
the form of a jazz waltz.
The quasi-improvisatory
central section features
a call-and-response
passage for the soloist
and upper
woodwinds.Soloist:

Concerto is available

Diamond
Concerto is
geschreven in opdracht
van de Duitse Musikverein
Mörschied - met
dirigent Eric Grandjean -
voor een speciaal concert
met Steven Mead als
gastsolist. De
wereldpremière vond
plaats op 28 april 2012
in het Stadttheater van
Idar-Oberstein.De
opdracht vormt een
hoogtepunt in de dertig
jaar lange vriendschap
van de componist en de
solist - waarin ze aan
vele gezamenlijke
cd-projecten en concerten
werkten. En nu is er dan
dit concert. Sparke heeft
het gecomponeerd met
Steven Meads geheel eigen
euphoniumklank in het
achterhoofd. Hij paste
daarbij de diverse
stijlen toe die de
wereldberoemde virtuoos
zich heeft eigen gemaakt
tijdens zijn
succesvollesolocarrièr
e.Het plaatsje
Mörschied ligt ten
westen van Frankfurt am
Main, in het gebied dat
bekendstaat als de
Deutsche
Edelsteinstrasse. Het is
beroemd vanwege zijn
bloeiende
edelstenenindustrie. Om
het werk een lokaal
tintje te geven is een
toepasselijke titel
gekozen: Diamond
Concerto. Elk van de
drie delen is genoemd
naar een beroemde
edelsteen:1 EARTH STARDit
deel is tamelijk sober
van sfeer. Het opent met
een vrije fantasie van de
solist over een statisch
akkoord in het orkest.
Dan volgt een allegro
moderato in mineur, met
kleine motieven die
geleidelijk worden
herhaald en uitgewerkt
door zowel het orkest als
de solist.2 OCEAN
DREAMHierin wordt een
citaat van
Sparke’s werk
Music for Battle
Creek naar voren
gebracht, met een
vloeiende, langzame
melodie die van oorsprong
werd geschreven met het
spel van Steven Mead in
gedachten.3 BLUE
HEARTNaar een suggestie
van Steven Mead zelf is
dit deel geschreven in
bebopstijl. Het neemt de
vorm aan van een
jazzwals. De
quasi-improvisatorische
centrale passage omvat
een vraag-en-antwoordspel
voor de solist en het
hoge hout.Solo:

A
slow introduction gives
way to the chirpy theme
which is developed,
inverted, and accents
displaced across the bar
line to give a 3/2 feel
against the written
meter. Restlessness leads
to a tranquillo presented
by the flute and
clarinet, weaving a
flowing counterpoint
around the melody until
the original slow
introduction returns. A
triumphant recapitulation
of the main theme brings
this wonderful piece to
an end.
Originally
composed for Brass Band
in 1934 Comedy Overture
is, despite its name, a
serious piece of writing.
The term Overture does
not imply that there is
anything else to follow;
it is used in the 19th
century sense of Concert
Overture (like
Mendelssohn's Fingal's
Cave - in other words, a
miniature Tone Poem). The
1930's was a period of
Ireland's mature writing
- yielding the Piano
Concerto (1930), the
Legend for piano and
orchestra (1933), and the
choral work These Things
Shall Be (1936-1937). We
are fortunate therefore
to have both Comedy
Overture and A Downland
Suite (1932) written for
band medium at this time.
As with Maritime Overture
(written in 1944 for
military band) Ireland
approaches his material
symphonically. The
opening three notes state
immediately the two
seminal intervals of a
semitone and a third.
These are brooding and
dark in Bb minor. It is
these intervals which
make up much of the
thematic content of
Comedy, sometimes
appearing in inverted
form, and sometimes in
major forms as well. The
concept that some musical
intervals are consonant ,
some dissonant, and some
perfect is perhaps useful
in understanding the
nature of the tension and
resolution of this work.
The third is inherently
unstable, and by bar 4,
the interval is expanded
to a fourth - with an
ascending sem-quaver
triplet - and then
expanded to a fifth. The
instability of the third
pushes it towards a
perfect resolution in the
fourth or the fifth. The
slow introduction is
built entirely around
these intervals in Bb
minor and leads through
an oboe cadenza, to an
Allegro moderato
brillante in Bb major.
Once again, the semi-tone
(inverted) and a third
(major) comprise the
main, chirpy,
theme-inspired by a
London bus-conductor's
cry of Piccadilly. (Much
of the material in Comedy
was re-conceived by
Ireland for orchestra and
published two years later
under the title A London
Overture.) The expansion
of the interval of a
third through a fourth,
fifth, sixth, and seventh
now takes place quickly
before our very ears at
the outset of this
quicker section.
Immediately the theme is
developed, inverted, and
accents displaced across
the bar line to give a
3/2 feel against the
written meter. But this
restlessness leads to a
tranquillo built around
an arpeggio figure and
presented by flute and
clarinet. Ireland weaves
his flowing counterpoint
around this melody until
the original slow
introduction returns
leading to a stretto
effect as the rising bass
motifs become more
urgent, requesting a
resolution of the tension
of that original semitone
and minor third. Yet
resolution is withheld at
this point as the music
becomes almost becalmed
in a further, unrelated
tranquillo section marked
pianissimo. It is almost
as if another side of
Ireland's nature is
briefly allowed to shine
through the stern
counterpoint and
disciplined structure.
This leads to virtually a
full recapitulation of
the chirpy brilliante,
with small additional
touches of counterpoint,
followed by the first
tranquillo section-this
time in the tonic of Bb
major. But the
instability of the third
re-asserts itself, this
time demanding a
resolution. And a
triumphant resolution it
receives, for it finally
becomes fully fledged and
reiterates the octave in
a closing vivace. The
opening tension has at
last resolved itself into
the most perfect interval
of all.

Diese Suite in
c-Moll zollt einem
berühmten
klassischen Blaserwerk
Tribut - der Ersten Suite
in Es-Dur von Gustav
Holst von 1909 - und
erscheint zu deren
100-jahrigem Jubilaum.
Die viersatzige Suite
erinnert an die Stilistik
von Holst, enthalt aber
auch charakteristische
Klangidiome sowie
Strukturmerkmale von
Jacob de Haan. Eine
erfrischende originale
Komposition, inspiriert
von einem durchaus nicht
angestaubten Klassiker.
En 1909, Gustav
Holst composa une
œuvre audacieuse et
novatrice, la Premiere
Suite en Mib Majeur, op.
28 ndeg1 (First Suite in
Eb major, Op. 28, No.
1), une suite
exclusivement ecrite pour
instruments a vent. A
l'occasion du centenaire
de cette piece, devenue
un classique du
repertoire pour Orchestre
d'Harmonie, Jacob de Haan
a compose la Memorial
Suite en Ut mineur.
Cette composition en
quatre mouvements fait
reference aux qualites
stylistiques de
l'œuvre de Holst,
tout en s'appuyant sur le
langage sonore et
l'ecriture
caracteristiques du style
de Jacob de Haan. Le
resultat est
original.Comme Gustav
Holst, Jacob de Haan a
choisi d'ouvrir sasuite
avec une chaconne, une
forme de variation
contrapuntique (a
l'origine une danse
espagnole a trois temps)
dans laquelle un theme
revient de facon
recurrente accompagne a
chaque fois par un
nouveau contre-chant. Ce
theme ostinato est
utilise de differentes
manieres tout au long des
quatre mouvements,
assurant ainsi l'unite de
l'œuvre. Le second
mouvement est un
scherzo. Par sa
progression et son
caractere, il s'apparente
a l'intermezzo
central de la suite de
Holst. Le troisieme
mouvement, Song
Without Words (Chanson
sans paroles), porte
le meme titre que le
second mouvement de la
Deuxieme Suite en Fa,
op. 28 ndeg 2 (Second
Suite in F, Op. 28, No.
1) composee par Holst
en 1911. A mi-chemin de
ce mouvement tres
expressif apparait un
solo de saxophone alto.
Jacob de Haan conclut son
œuvre par une
Marche comme le
fit jadis Gustav
Holst.
