Par BUCKLEY ROBERT. The rich heritage of French-Canadian folk music dates back several centuries. Robert has chosen three of these songs to create a musical portrait of this colorful culture. The opening piece is the jaunty and dance-like Monsieur Lecuré, followed by the hauntingly beautiful Blanche Comme la Neige. The piece concludes with the spirited march Vive la Canadienne!, which features a drum break and builds to an exciting, rousing finish. The creative use of harmonizations, key changes and dynamic contrasts gives this piece a sophisticated sound and intensity of a much more advanced piece.

Anton Bruckner (1824-1896). Par BRUCKNER ANTON / DOSS THOMAS (Arr.). Anton Bruckner (b. 4.9.1824, Ansfelden, d. 11.10.1896, Vienna) didn?t have it easy. Throughout his life, the Austrian composer was plagued by self-doubt. Anton Bruckner came from a simple, rural background. After the death of his father, he was accepted as a choirboy at the monastery of Sankt Florian in 1837. After several years as a school assistant and his own organ and piano studies, he first worked as organist in St. Florian, then from 1855 as cathedral organist in Linz. Introduced to music theory and instrumentation by Simon Sechter and Otto Kitzler, he discovered Richard Wagner as an artistic role model, whom he admired throughout his life and also visited several times in Bayreuth. In 1868 Anton Bruckner became professor of basso continuo, counterpoint and organ at the Vienna Conservatory; ten years later court organist; and in 1891 finally honorary doctor of the University of Vienna. He was considered an important organ virtuoso of his era, but had to wait a long time for recognition as a composer. It was not until Symphony No.7 in E major, composed between 1881 and 1883, with the famous Adagio written under the effects of Wagner's death, that he achieved the recognition he had hoped for, even if he was reluctant to accept it given his inclination towards scepticism and self-criticism. Anton Bruckner was a loner who did not want to follow a particular school or doctrine. He composed numerous sacred vocal works, such as his three masses, the Missa Solemnis in B flat minor (1854), the Te Deum (1881-84) and numerous motets. As a symphonic composer, he wrote a total of nine symphonies and many symphonic studies from 1863 onwards, tending to revise completed versions several times over. Bruckner's orchestral works were long considered unplayable, but in fact were merely exceptionally bold for the tonal language of their time, uniting traditions from Beethoven through Wagner to folk music, on the threshold between late Romanticism and Modernism. Anton Bruckner composed about 40 motets during his lifetime, the earliest a setting of Pange lingua around 1835, and the last, Vexilla regis, in 1892. Thomas Doss has compiled some of these motets in this volume for symphonic wind orchestra. These motets show many characteristics of personal expression, especially Bruckner's colourful harmony in the earlier works, which is in places aligned with Franz Schubert (changes between major and minor; and movements in thirds). Later works are characterised by many components which, in addition to the expanded stature of the movements, include above all a sense of the instrumentation as an outward phenomenon and the harmony as a compositional feature that works more internally. Some aspects of Bruckner's work are the result of his long period of study, which familiarised him not only with the tradition of his craft, but also gave him insights into the 'modernity' of his time in such composers as Wagner, Liszt and Berlioz. From this developed his personal standpoint, which always pursues the connection between the old and the new. / Date parution : 2023-08-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

opus 117. Par STRAUSS JOHANN (FILS). L’ Annen-Polka, op. 117, de Johann Strauss fils, fut présentée, en 1852, soit dix ans après la première publique de la Beliebte Annen-Polka, op. 137, composée par son père. Le fait que tous deux aient écrit une polka portant le même nom n’est pas un hasard. En effet, l’ Annenfest (la fête de sainte Anne) était alors la fête d’été la plus populaire de Vienne. Chaque compositeur viennois, célèbre ou inconnu, a composé une oeuvre pour cette occasion. Johann Strauss fils avait 26 ans quand il écrivit cette polka. Il n’était pas en très bons termes avec son père ; une rivalité notoire bouillonnait entre eux. Cependant, la création de sa nouvelle oeuvre connutun vif succès. Elle fut bissée à plusieurs reprises et louée pour ses motifs très dansants. Dès lors, elle triompha sur les scènes du monde entier. / Niveau : 2.5 / Polka / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Arr. Lorenzo Bocci. Par STEINBERG JEFF. Gospel John est une de ces compositions dynamiques et puissantes qui ont fait la notoriété de Jeff Steinberg, compositeur, producteur et pédagogue américain aux multiples talents. Elle a fait le tour du monde grâce à l’interprétation légendaire du jazzman canadien Maynard Ferguson, qui nous a quittés en 2006. Sa version donnait littéralement vie à un pasteur afro-américain qui, du haut de sa chaire, tenait un discours enflammé à une assistance enthousiaste. Cet arrangement passionnant, signé Lorenzo Bocci, restitue le caractère fascinant de l’original et apporte une touche de fraîcheur et de pétillant à tout programme de concert. / Niveau : 3 / Pop and rock / Recueil / Fanfare
