This concert overture, which has the air of a symphonic poem, takes its inspiration from an ancient Roman bridge. A massive introduction, a threatening allegro and alternating virtuoso and chorale themes quickly succeed each other. Trombones and trumpets introduce a rhythmical theme which develops throughout all instrument groups. The allegro is characterised by a quasi-obsessive cadence which depicts a Roman army constantly beating time.

Ponte Romano (Römische Brücke) wurde von Jan Van der Roost im Auftragdes Blasorchesters von Pont-Saint-Martin geschrieben, einer kleinen Gemiende im auonomen französischen Teil des Aosta-Tals im Nordwesten Italiens. Er schrieb das Stück anlässlich des 100. Jubiläums des Orchesters und es ist Walter Chenuil, dem Dirigenten, und Claudio Porté, dem Vizedirigenten, gewidmet. Die Uraufführung von Ponte Ramono fand am 27. Mai 2000 in Pont-Saint-Martin statt.Die weite, bergige und auch rauhe Umgebung bildet die Kulisse für eine beeindruckende römische Brücke in der Mitte des Dorfes. Diese jahrhundertealte Brücke inspirierte den Komponisten zu dieserKonzert-Ouvertür e, die mit ihrem programmatischen Thema wie eine sinfonische Dichtung wirkt. Auf einen kraftvollen Anfang folgt ein bedrohliches Allegro, welches zwischen virtuosen und choralähnlichen Themen abwechselt. Dann wird ein drittes, rhytmisches Thema von Posaunen und Trompeten eingeführt und später in allen Orchesterteilen entwickelt. Man könnte sagen, dass der ganze Allegro-Teil einen fast zwanghaft quälenden Rhythmus hat, als ob eine (römische) Armee ständig im Gleichschritt marschierte.

Ponte Romano est une œuvre de commande pour l’Orchestre d’Harmonie de Pont-Saint-Martin (Val d’Aoste). De l’immensité des montagnes environnantes se détache l’imposant pont romain du village. Cet édifice, vieux de plus de quinze siècles, a été la principale source d’inspiration du compositeur pour la création de cette ouverture qui, structurée selon le principe de la musique programme, fait davantage penser un poème symphonique. L’œuvre est dense, virtuose et d’une régularité rythmique qui rappelle le pas cadencé d’une armée romaine.

Program Notes Elephant is, of course, inspired by the incredible mammals of the same name. Their column-like legs, long trunks, and massive presence will never cease to amaze; however, it's their trumpeting that makes them stand out as the instrumentalists of the animal kingdom! In this selection, an elephant's slow gate and general demeanor are represented by a methodical tempo and lumbering texture. Woodwinds will enjoy the opportunity to perform grace notes while Elephant also offers exposure to flams for young percussionists.   At m. 33 the trumpets and horns recreate an elephant call after slipping brown paper bags, or lunch-bag mutes, over their bells (in their bells for horn players). For the trumpet players, the mutes can be enhanced with an additional balled-up piece of paper placed at the bottom of the bag prior to slipping it over the bell. Horns should ball up the bag itself and experiment with placement to create the most realistic tones without stopping the instrument. While specific pitches are noted, making the best elephant sounds should prioritized. Young students always look forward to experimenting with mutes, and this selection offers an inexpensive and creative way to do so at a young age. Note to the Conductor This piece can be used to introduce or reinforce the finer points of staccato playing. While many students know to play these notes short in length, they may need reminding that they should also be played lightly. This also may allow for opportunities in emphasizing contrasting articulation styles that are in this piece. Younger students will likely need a reasonable amount of practice in successfully using the lunch-bag mutes. Allowing additional rehearsal time for this is recommended.

I Love the 207 was composed in February 2010 for a commission by Osumi Symphonic Band in Kyoto. It was first performed on 25 April 2010 by Osumi Symphonic Band, conducted by Masanori Ozaki. This piece begins with an introduction to present the instruments, followed by a light scherzo. The title is an affectionate reference to the commuter rail 207 series of the West Japan Railway Company. When the band started their activity, the 207 series trains began running through the fields next to the building where they practice. The composer hopes that the trains continue to run and bring smiles to people’s faces.

I Love the 207 is in februari 2010 gecomponeerd in opdracht van de Osumi Symphonic Band uit Kyoto, Japan. Dit orkest bracht op 25 april 2010 de première, onder leiding van dirigent Masanori Ozaki. Het werk begint met een inleidingwaarin de instrumenten worden gepresenteerd, gevolgd door een licht scherzo. De titel verwijst naar de forenzentrein van het type 207 van de West Japan Railway Company. Toen het orkest begon, begonnen ook de treinen uit de207-serie door de velden te rijden naast het gebouw waar wordt gerepeteerd. De componist hoopt dat de treinen zullen blijven rijden tot tevredenheid van de mensen die er gebruik van maken.

I Love the 207 wurde im Februar 2010 als Auftragswerk für die Osumi Symphonic Band in Kyoto (Japan) komponiert. Die Urraufführung fand am 25. April 2010 mit der Osumi Symphonic Band, unter der Leitung von Masanori Ozaki, statt. Das Stück beginnt einer Einleitung zur Vorstellung aller Instrumente; dann folgt ein leichtes Scherzo. Der Titel ist eine liebevolle Anspielung auf die Pendlerzüge der Serie 207 der West-Japanischen Eisenbahngesellschaft. Während der Anfangszeit des Blasorchesters begannen die Züge der 207er-Serie die Felder ganz in der Nähe des Proberaums zu durchqueren. Mit diesem Stück will der Komponist seiner Hoffnung Ausdruck verleihen, dass die Züge auchweiterhin fahren und ein Lächeln auf die Gesichter der Menschen zaubern mögen.

Le titre fait affectueusement référence aux trains de banlieue de la série 207 de la West Japan Railway Company. En effet, les débuts de l’orchestre co ncidèrent avec l’introduction de ces trains sur la ligne qui traverse les champs avoisinant le b timent où se déroulent les répétitions.

Questo brano è stato commissionato a Itaru Sakai dall’orchestra di fiati di Osumi in Giappone. I Love the 207 inizia con la presentazione di ogni sezione della banda, seguita da un leggero scherzo.

In effetti, la data di fondazione dell’orchestra di fiati che ha commissionato il brano coincide con la nascita di questi treni che attraversano le campagne e sfrecciano vicino alla sede della banda.

Golden Peak is a concert piece that takes us deep into the world of volcanoes of the Auvergne in central France. They are dormant volcanoes whose origins date back from 7,000 to over 65 million years ago. Among the most well-known are the 80 volcanoes of the Chaîne des Puys, a spectacular natural environment ranking among the most fascinating landscapes in the world. The title of this dynamic and rhythmic piece is a reference to the local spa town of Mont-Dore and calls upon all sections of the orchestra. The central theme is very mellow yet riveting and the music depicts both the dynamism and tranquillity of the region.

Golden Peak is een concertwerk dat ons meeneemt naar een vulkanische wereld: die van de Auvergne in het midden van Frankrijk. De vulkanen daar zijn slapende; hun oorsprong gaat terug naar 7000 tot meer dan 65 miljoen jaar geleden. Tot de bekendste behoren de tachtig vulkanen van de Chaîne des Puys, een uniek natuurgebied dat tot de boeiendste landschappen van de wereld behoort. De titel van deze dynamische en ritmische compositie verwijst naar de plaats Mont-Dore aldaar. Het werk doet een beroep op alle secties in het orkest. Het centrale thema is mild en tegelijk meeslepend, en verder beschrijft de muziek zowel de vitaliteit als de rust van de streek.

Golden Peak ist ein Konzertstück, das uns tief in die Welt der Vulkane in der Auvergne in Mittelfrankreich entführt. Es handelt sich um erloschene Vulkane, deren Ursprünge zwischen 7.000 bis 65 Millionen Jahren vor unserer Zeit liegen. Zu den bekanntesten gehören die 80 Vulkane der Chaîne des Puys, eine spektakuläre Gegend, die zu den faszinierendsten Landschaften der Welt zählt. Der Titel dieses dynamischen und rhythmischen Stücks, in dem alle Instrumentengruppen des Orchesters verwendet werden, bezieht sich auf die Kurstadt Mont-Dore. Das zentrale Thema ist sehr sanft und voller Emotionen und die Musik beschreibt sowohl die Betriebsamkeit als auch die Ruhe dieserRegion.

Golden Peak est une œuvre de concert qui nous plonge dans l’univers des volcans d’Auvergne, au centre de la France. Ce sont des volcans endormis dont l’ ge s’étend de 65 millions d’années jusqu’ seulement 7000 ans. Parmi les plus célèbres, la Chaîne des Puys compte 80 volcans et forme un environnement naturel qui se place parmi les plus fascinants au monde. Le titre de cette pièce dynamique et rythmique, qui fait appel tous les pupitres de l’orchestre, se rapporte la ville thermale de Mont-Dore. Très serein, le thème central est fascinant, tandis que la musique dépeint la fois le dynamisme et la quiétude de la région.

Golden Peak is a concert piece that takes us deep into the world of volcanoes of the Auvergne in central France. They are dormant volcanoes whose origins date back from 7,000 to over 65 million years ago. Among the most well-known are the 80 volcanoes of the Chaîne des Puys, a spectacular natural environment ranking among the most fascinating landscapes in the world. The title of this dynamic and rhythmic piece is a reference to the local spa town of Mont-Dore and calls upon all sections of the orchestra. The central theme is very mellow yet riveting and the music depicts both the dynamism and tranquillity of the region.

Golden Peak is een concertwerk dat ons meeneemt naar een vulkanische wereld: die van de Auvergne in het midden van Frankrijk. De vulkanen daar zijn slapende; hun oorsprong gaat terug naar 7000 tot meer dan 65 miljoen jaar geleden. Tot de bekendste behoren de tachtig vulkanen van de Chaîne des Puys, een uniek natuurgebied dat tot de boeiendste landschappen van de wereld behoort. De titel van deze dynamische en ritmische compositie verwijst naar de plaats Mont-Dore aldaar. Het werk doet een beroep op alle secties in het orkest. Het centrale thema is mild en tegelijk meeslepend, en verder beschrijft de muziek zowel de vitaliteit als de rust van de streek.

Zu den bekanntesten gehören die 80 Vulkane der Chaîne des Puys, eine spektakuläre Gegend, die zu den faszinierendsten Landschaften der Welt zählt. Der Titel dieses dynamischen und rhythmischen Stücks, in dem alle Instrumentengruppen des Orchesters verwendet werden, bezieht sich auf die Kurstadt Mont-Dore. Das zentrale Thema ist sehr sanft und voller Emotionen und die Musik beschreibt sowohl die Betriebsamkeit als auch die Ruhe dieserRegion.

A Little Irish Suite is an original work composed specifically for the Compact Band Series. This series offers smaller ensembles the opportunity to perform original, high-quality works. A Little Irish Suite consists of three movements, all based on Irish folk tunes. Clear structure and crisp harmonies complemented by plain, comprehensible melodies, are characteristic of this piece. It offers conductors the opportunity to work on tone, balance, phrasing as well as on technique with their ensemble. As with all works in the Compact Band Series, A Little Irish Suite features optional parts for instruments that are played less frequently. Conductors can pickand choose the parts needed to best fit the music and the musicians available, to determine the best possible instrumentation for their own ensemble. The duration of six minutes and the large variety and contrast of material played in A Little Irish Suite also make it an ideal selection for competitions or festivals.
