This meditation on stillness begins with gentle guidance in quieting the mind, continuing to lead the soul toward serenity and light, with the assurance that true knowledge is not to be found in the external world but in one's own calmly abiding consciousness. This music offers many points of discussion for the young choir.

The twofold title of this concert work is directly connected with the band who commissioned it. The â??Harmonie Municipale Grevenmacherâ?? from the town of the same name, by the river Moselle in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg was founded in the year1834. The name Machera is derived from the word machara, which in turn originated from maceries (old wall). Later, Machera evolved into Machern, Grafenmachern, and finally Grevenmacher.In 2009, this music society the third oldest still in existence in the country celebrated its 175th anniversary. And after all these years the society still flourishes! The dynamic committee, led by Georges May, fully supports and inspires themusical leader of the band, Claude Weiland, as well as his 60-strong ensemble. This well-functioning team took the initiative to ask Jan Van der Roost to write an anniversary composition, inspired, on the one hand, by the rural character ofGrevenmacher and its surroundings (where the famous Moselle wine growing dominates the countryside), and on the other hand, by the dynamics, creativity and joie de vivre the band exudes. All of this resulted in a twofold work with alternating peaceand excitement, virtuous and melodic features, orchestral splendour and soberly orchestrated passages. The première, on 10 January 2010, was conducted by the composer himself at a successful gala concert which brought a fine year full of musicalfestivities to a close. The â??Harmonie Municipale Grevenmacherâ?? faces the future with confidence, and will now prepare for its next milestone: the 200th anniversary!

1834 - Machara Impressions was a commission for the 175th anniversary of the band Harmonie Municipale Grevenmacher from the town of Grevenmacher - formerly Machara - in Luxemburg. It is a work of many contrasts with alternating peace and excitement, virtuous and melodic features, orchestral splendour and soberly orchestrated passages - reflecting the peaceful and turbulent history of the band.

Das zweiteilige Auftragswerk zum 175-jährigen Jubiläum der Harmonie Municipale Grevenmacher aus dem Dorf Grevenmacher - historisch Machara - in Luxemburg ist von Dynamik, Kreativität und Lebensfreude des Blasorchesters inspiriert. Friedliche und aufregende Zeiten spiegeln sich wechselweise in virtuosen und melodischen Eigenschaften, orchestraler Pracht und nu?chtern orchestrierten Passagen wider. Ein Thema fu?r jedes Blasorchester mit Tradition, umgesetzt in ein attraktives Werk von Jan Van der Roost.

Cette oeuvre au double titre souligne le dynamisme de la formation dédicataire, lâ??Harmonie Municipale de Grevenmacher, fondée en 1834, tout en rappelant lâ??histoire de la ville de Grevenmacher (ancienn. Machera), située au bord de la Moselle luxembourgeoise. La toile alterne entre passages calmes et passages fougueux, composantes virtuoses et composantes mélodiques, splendeur orchestrale et sobriété de lâ??orchestration.

Questo brano sottolinea ed elogia il dinamismo della Banda Municipale di Grevenmacher, fondata nel 1834, ricordando allo stesso tempo la storia di questa cittadina, situata in riva alla Mosella lussemburghese, il cui nome era nellâ??antichit Machera. Passaggi calmi si alternano armoniosamente a passaggi più vivaci, elementi virtuosi si mischiano a tratti melodici, mentre sul tutto aleggia uno splendore e una sobriet orchestrale fuori dal comune.

Violin ABC is the perfect volume for pupils to familiarize themselves with the instrument, basic musical elements, and the sensation of moving naturally while playing. Its editors comprise renowned Hungarian experts in the field of violin pedagogy, and their aim was to create a publication that allows children to have a joyous first encounter with the violin. Violin ABC helps students learn to have calm, relaxed posture and movements through playful illustrations. That way, those who want to play the violin can get a worthwhile introduction to the basics of the violin repertoire through various folk songs and beautiful music examples.The legendary violinist, Yehudi Menuhin (1916 - 1999), had this to say about the publication: ''I am delighted to see a work on the teaching of the violin stress the importance of the preparation of our body and limbs, of our minds and our soul, independently of the instrument itself. I have always said that, ideally, I would like the preparation to be so complete and thorough and enjoyable, that when a child first picks up a violin and a bow, it will draw a clean sound.')' - Yehudi Menuhin (1916 - 1999).
