The Belgian
composer Nicholas Lens
presents extremely varied
etudes, exercises and
simple phrases with
wonderfully telling
titles from poetry and
everyday world for
children and adults. For
the most part the studies
are tonal and simple and
have no constructed line.
They are not based on any
educational concept but
leave the musical
dramatization to the
pupils and teachers:
'Notes and rhythms are
just notes and rhythms,
they do not have that
many rules, they do not
have any pretension, they
are just tools for you to
use to express what you
want to share'.

Nordanvind
is a tour de force
symphonic rhapsody that
is built on three
Scandinavian folk songs.
Composer Carl Strommen
has composed these
Viking-influenced
melodies into a concert
setting that brings out
all of the history of the
Scandinavian people. The
piece is at times bold
and aggressive, at other
times beautiful. Carl
employs all of the
instrumental colors of
the concert band to
create a new work for
more advanced
ensembles. Modern
Scandinavians are
descendants of the
Vikings, an adventuresome
people who were known for
their love of the sea,
their naval prowess, and
as fierce fighters . The
Scandinavian Vikings were
warriors from Denmark,
Norway, and Sweden who
traded, raided and
settled in various parts
of Europe, Russia, the
North Atlantic islands,
and the northeastern
coast of North America
.Starting around 1850,
over one million Swedes
left their homeland for
the United States in
search of religious
freedom and open farm
land . Augustana College
was founded in 1860 by
graduates of Swedish
universities and is
located on the
Mississippi River in Rock
Island, Illinois . Home
of the
“Vikings,â€
Augustana College is the
oldest Swedish- American
institution of higher
learning in the United
States . This powerful
and lively piece takes
inspiration from Swedish
history and from Swedish
folk songs and hymns
.Havsdrake (Dragon of the
Sea)The Nordanvind or
“North Windâ€
blows a cold wind during
a journey of a group of
courageous Viking rowers
. The
“Dragon-shipâ€
or long ships designed
for raiding and war was a
sophisticated, fast ship
able to navigate in very
shallow water . To
musically portray these
magnificent seafaring
vessels, the director is
encouraged to use an
Ocean Drum (or a rain
stick) during the
introduction . Wind
players may consider
blowing air through their
instruments to suggest
the North wind . Adding
men’s voices to
accompany the haunting
low brass and percussive
“rowerâ€
sounds can be helpful in
creating the dark and
ominous portrayal of
Viking adventurers
.Slangpolska efter Byss -
KalleIn Sweden, a
“polska†is a
partner dance where the
dancers spin each other
(släng in Swedish
“to sling or
tossâ€) .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is attributed to
Byss-Kalle, who was a
notable Swedish folk
musician, specifically a
nyckelharpa player .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is a traditional
“polskaâ€
dance song most often
played on the Nyckelharpa
or keyed fiddle and is
commonly heard in pubs
and at festive events
throughout Sweden .
Approximately 10,000
nyckelharpa players live
in Sweden today, and the
Swedish and the American
Nyckelharpa Associations
are dedicated to this
Swedish National
instrument . The director
is encouraged to share
video and audio examples
of the nyckelharpa
playing the original
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen
Vara (Children of the
Heavenly Father)Tryggare
Kan Ingen Vara Is a
traditional Swedish
melody, possibly of
German roots, and was
believed to be arranged
as a hymn by the Swedish
hymn writer, Karolina
Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg
(1832–1903) . As a
daughter of a Swedish
Lutheran minister, she
began writing poems as a
teenager and is said to
have written over 1,700
different texts . There
are two different
accounts as to the
inspiration for this hymn
. The first story is that
Lina (as she was called)
wrote the hymn to honor
her father and to say
thank you to him for
raising her and
protecting her . A second
belief is of her
witnessing the tragic
death of her father . She
and her father were on a
boat, when a wave threw
her father overboard . It
was said that the
profound effect of
watching her father drown
is what caused Lina to
write the text to this
hymn . Although this is a
treasured song to people
of Swedish descent
everywhere, it speaks to
all people about a father
tending and nourishing
his children, and
protecting them from evil

Productions Includes set
of 2 scores The Garden of
My Father's House (1973)
is a dramatic rhapsody
for violin and clarinet
duo. The composer wrote
the following: I composed
THE GARDEN OF MY FATHER'S
HOUSE in 1972 in memory
of my father, who was my
first music teacher.
Although he played many
instruments and loved to
sing, he could not read a
note of music. When I was
very young he would sing
Gypsy songs, Yiddish
folk-songs and Rumanian
tunes to me and I would
play them back on my
clarinet, often with
ornaments and variations.
Sometimes he would
accompany me on the
piano; he had a few
favorite chords which
always seemed to pop up
no matter what the tune.
The piece is a musical
ritual, based on a
C-sharp drone, or pedal
note, that is heard
without interruption,
across several ranges,
throughout the piece. The
violin's drone tremolos,
often combined with
perfect fifths and
quarter-tone tunings,
imply the key of Csharp
minor. The violin part is
always rubato —
lyrical, expressive and
frequently very
passionate. But, most
importantly, the violin
is always tonal. The
clarinet, on the other
hand, is atonal, its
pitches drawn from the
twelve-tone row that I
used to write my Cycles
of Infinities. The style
of the clarinet is
contemporary, using
wide-range intervals,
biting accents and
unusual instrumental
effects, including
fluttertonguing and
quarter-tone trills. In
combining the
'contrasting' roles of
the two instruments, I
sought to create a
musical ritual-game that
would draw energy and
bits of information from
the polarized
instruments. The language
of the piece calls the
listener's attention to
the cogent features of
both instrumental
personalities in a manner
that is somewhat similar
to the way in which
Yiddish combines German
and Hebrew. The drone
becomes more and more
magnetic and begins to
join the parts together
until they become one in
the final C-sharp
unison.
