Wind Quintet

Kimm o Hakola's Wind Quintet op. 96 (2017) was commissioned by the Kimito Island Music Festival. The composer sees that making the ensemble ultimately breathe and express itself as an organic, coherent subject should be the aim in composing for wind quintet. The normal chamber-music configuration is not a sufficient basis for me in composing a wind quintet: the instruments have to be compressed, reduced, even crushed together so that, in pairs and different combinations, they produce new, viable audio units. Collision often generates something new. Kimmo Hakola has gone through a number of styles and influences in his career as a composer, his idiom expanding at times to embrace Romanticism, Orientalism and klezmer. He has attained international recognition with an output that spans various genres from intimate solo works to full-length operas such as La Fenice (2011) commissioned by the Savonlinna Opera Festival. Many of his works are expansive and epic: his Piano Concerto (1996), for instance, clocks in at 55 minutes. Hakola says that he sees music as drama. His dramas explore almost Shakespearean extremes, from moments of raging sound and fury and violent battles to quiet moments of meditation and heart-rending monologues.

As a pasticcio by Johann Sebastian Bach, with arias from Hande'ls Brockes-Passion. Composed by George Frideric Handel and fruher zugeschrieben Reinhard Keiser. Edited by Christine Blanken. Arranged by Johann Sebastian Bach. This edition: Paperbound. Edition Bach-Archiv Leipzig - Musical Monuments. German title: Markuspassion. Sacred vocal music, Passions, Lent and Passiontide, Holy Week. Full score. Composed circa 1747. 136 pages. Duration 90 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 35.502/00. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.3550200).

Third version, first performed around 1747 in Leipzig. First version available under 35.304/00. The St. Mark Passion, which probably originated in the first decade of the 18th century, by a composer known until now only as Kaiser, is only preserved in various copies. It occupies a prominent place in Bach's music library as the only music for Passion by another composer which he performed several times, usually in different forms. For the young Bach in Weimar this St. Mark Passion was a didactic piece for learning the art of the modern narrative recitative; as the Leipzig Thomaskantor he also performed it (1726). The present edition reconstructs the third version, first performed in Leipzig (1747), in which Bach inserted seven arias from Handel's famous Brockes-Passion. Only in this pasticcio did a direct encounter occur between him and his famous compatriot in London, a real encounter which Bach longed for, but which never came about.

Fanfare Band - Grade 5

‘Rhapsody for Tienhoven’ is a short concert for saxophone and fanfare band.
The solo part in its instrumentation distinguishes itself from the other saxophone solos.
The soloist should be able to play both the alto and soprano saxophone.

The piece consists of four parts, which almost blend into one another.
A four-tone motif (which is played a number of times by the soloist at the beginning) has been taken as the point of departure for this composition.
This motif has been worked out in different ways and can be heard in a swing rhythm in the final part.
This piece exacts a high standard of the soloist’s technical skills.

The ‘Rhapsody forTienhoven’ was originally written for the fanfare band ‘Soli Deo Gloria’ from Tienhoven. ‘Rhapsody for Tienhoven’ is een klein concert voor saxofoon en fanfare-orkest.
De solopartij onderscheidt zich qua instrumentatie van andere saxofoon-solo’s. De solist(e) moet zowel altsaxofoon als sopraansaxofoon spelen.

Het stuk bestaat uit vier deeltjes, die vrijwel in elkaar overlopen.
Een vier-tonig motief (wordt in het begin een aantal malen door de solist gespeeld) is het uitgangspunt van deze compositie. Dit motief wordt op verschillende manieren uitgewerkt en wordt in het slot gedeelte ten tonele gevoerd in een swingritme.
Dit werk stelt hoge eisen aan de technische vaardigheden van de solist.

De ‘Rhapsody’ werd geschreven voor de fanfare ‘Soli Deo Gloria’ uit Tienhoven.

Cittaslow is an international network of more than 220 towns in 30 countries. Its members are towns where people are still finding themselves reminiscing over the old times; towns that are rich in theatres, squares, cafés, restaurants and spiritual places; towns with untouched landscapes and charming craftsman where people are still able to recognize the slow course of the seasons, and respect their authentic products, true taste as well as their health. The Hymn of Cittaslow, which was commissioned by the organisation itself, is entirely inspired by their commitment to the preservation of the member towns. The tempo is naturally ‘slow', and the themes somehow soundfamiliar. On the one hand, the music emanates peace and quiet, but it also sounds grand in its lyricism, thereby reflecting the beauty of the Cittaslow towns.

Cittaslow is een internationaal netwerk van meer dan 220 gemeenten verspreid over 30 landen. De aangesloten plaatsen zijn gemeenten waar mensen nieuwsgierig zijn naar vroeger, waar een rijke schakering aan theaters, pleinen, cafés, restaurants en spirituele plekken te vinden is, met een ongerept landschap en innemende ambachtslieden, waar mensen de langzame tred van de seizoenen nog herkennen en hun authentieke producten, ware smaak en gezondheid eerbiedigen. De Hymn of Cittaslow, in opdracht van deze organisatie gecomponeerd, is helemaal ge nspireerd op deze gedachte. Het tempo is uiteraard 'slow' en de thema's zijn herkenbaar. De muziek ademt enerzijds rust, maarklinkt ook groots in haar lyriek, die de schoonheid van de Cittaslow-gemeenten weerspiegelt.

Städte mit unberührten Landschaften und bezauberndem Handwerk, wo man immer noch den langsamen Lauf der Jahreszeiten wahrnehmen sowie authentische und gesunde Produkte mit ihrem ursprünglichen Geschmack genießen kann. Die Hymn of Cittaslow wurde von der Organisation selbst in Auftrag gegeben und ist ganz von dem Engagement ihrer Mitgliedsstädte inspiriert, die sich dafür einsetzen, dieVergangenheit zu bewahren. Das Tempo ist natürlich langsam“ und die Themen klingen irgendwie vertraut. Einerseits strahlt die Musik Ruhe und Frieden aus, andererseits klingt sie großartig lyrisch und spiegelt damit die Schönheit der Cittaslow-Städte wider.

Writt en in 1998, Pacific Serenade is a “peaceful serenade:” serenade as in: romantic, quasi improvised music which should be sung at night under the stars. The main “singer” here is the clarinet. In general the music is extremely quiet, delicate, sensuous and sentimental. The sensuousness is created by Latin song elements especially the nostalgic Brazilian folk song, which is at times combined with Blues style melody and harmony. The string quartet has a technically expressively challenging part which is not merely the accompaniment to the clarinet, but rather it is responsible for setting the mood in which the clarinet sings. This is Aguila’s opus 59 and it was commissioned by Pacific Serenades Ensemble of California who premiered the work in 1998. Of course the ensemble's name inspired the name of this work as well as its mood. In an age of boom boxes, media bombardment of information and pop culture becoming increasingly aggressive, boisterous and violent, I felt the need to write just the opposite… to show once more that less is more. -- Miguel del Aguila.

Brian May’s We Will Rock You was not Queen’s biggest hit when it first came out. However, looking back it has become much more than simply a successful song. It is the group’s hymn, welcomed with loud cheers whenever and wherever it is played. Let the good times roll with Lorenzo Bocci’s outstanding arrangement that will rock your band!

We Will Rock You von Brian May ist kurz nach seiner Veröffentlichung nicht einmal der größte Erfolg für die Rockgruppe Queen gewesen - rückblickend, anlässlich des 40-jährigen Bühnenjubiläums, ist er die Hymne und das Erkennungszeichen der Band schlechthin. Wenn Sie einer der großartigsten Rockbands aller Zeiten ein Konzertprogramm widmen wollen, darf diese Bearbeitung nicht fehlen!

Lors de sa sortie, en 1977, la chanson We Will Rock You, écrite par Brian May, reçut un accueil plutôt mitigé. Pourtant, elle compte aujourd’hui parmi les chansons les plus populaires du groupe. Elle fut reprise par divers artistes et utilisée par le monde publicitaire. En choisissant We Will Rock You, vous rendrez un hommage vibrant ce groupe mythique.

We Will Rock You è la prima canzone dell’album News of the World dei Queen, uscito nel 1977 e composta da Brian May. Sulla facciata B del 45 giri si trovava We Are the Champions, ciò che spiega il fatto che queste due canzoni furono a volte eseguite insieme nei concerti della band, spesso una seconda volta in una versione più rapida. We Will Rock You resta una delle canzoni più popolari del gruppo ed è stata più volte ripresa da vari artisti.

The magical setting of this cherished melody combines exquisite orchestration with dramatic harmonies. At times, the arrangement is quite plaintive sounding, which is balanced with more contemporary harmonies and powerful countermelodies. Endless opportunities for music making abound, and there certainly will not be a dry eye in the house when the group plays the final chord after a haunting violin solo. Inspirational!

Momen ts in the Life of Brother Roger is a film about sixteen moments in the life of the founder of the Taizé Community, from his childhood in a Swiss mountain village, to his settling at Taizé near the beginning of World War II, to his tragic death during an evening prayer. For each of these moments, which include times of doubts or uncertainty, there are contrbutions from brothers of the Community who shared his life for years, from old friends, including the philosopher Paul Ricœur, from Catholic and Protestant church leaders, from the secretary of Pope John XXIII, from Brother Roger's sister who lived in Taizé from 1941, from a historian, a biographer, and others who appreciate his compelling personality. This unusual man was always ready to take risks for the reconciliation of Christians, for the younger generation, and for the poorest of the world. The disc includes previously unpublished excerpts of interviews with Brother Roger. This DVD offers two language options—French and French with English Subtitles.

In 1786 Mozart composed his wonderful opera Le Nozze di Figaro (KV 492). The Italian libretto, based on the play Le mariage de Figaro by Beaumarchais, was written by Lorenzo da Ponte?who also made the libretti of Mozart's opera's Don Giovanni and Cosi fan tutte. In the opera Le Nozze di Figaro, Count Almaviva tries to seduce the fiancee of Figaro, his valet. Eventually, through four acts full of complicated intrigue, he is outwitted. In his music, Mozart?at times in a humorous way?reflects the numerous social and erotic intrigues with both empathy and insight. The brilliant overture is just as vivacious and witty as the opera itself. Mozart delightfullyanticipates the passion and playful love that is to come. The skillful transcription for concert band by Tohru Takahashi certainly does justice to this appealing music.

De muziek van Mozarts Cosi fan tutte werd door tijdgenoten meteen bejubeld. Deze luisterrijke opera is vandaag de dag nog steeds geliefd en wordt wereldwijd veel uitgevoerd. Het is heel goed mogelijk dat de vrij korte ouverture vanCosi fan tutte is bedoeld als sfeerbeschrijving van een koffiehuis waarin heftig gedebatteerd wordt. De herhaalde en stijgende melodieen zouden lachen en discussieren kunnen suggereren. Deze suggestie wordt nog versterktdoor de dynamische contrasten in het stuk.

Cosi fan tutte ist eine der spaten Opern Mozarts und sicherlich auch eine seiner besten. Cosi fan tutte bedeutet so viel wie so sind sie alle und bezieht sich auf die Unzuverlassigkeit des weiblichen Geschlechts in Liebesdingen. Dies war ein ziemlich heikles Thema zu Mozarts Zeiten und es ist daher kaum verwunderlich, dass die Oper als unmoralisch galt, dennoch von Beginn an sehr beliebt war. Wil van der Beek setzte die eher kurze, dynamisch kontrastive Ouverture fur Blasorchester um.
