In Dublin Dances Jan Van der Roost has combined three well-known traditional Irish melodies to form an attractive medley. The medley contains Brian Boru’s March, a melody made popular by worldfamous flautist James Galway, followed bythe atmospheric tune The Minstrel Man and, as a cheerful finale, The Irish Washerwoman. Add a little magic from the Emerald Isle to your concert with this rousing medley.

In deze ‘Ierse rapsodie’ put de componist uit de rijke schat aan Ierse volksmuziek en rijgt hij drie bekende melodieën aaneen tot een fraai geheel. De eerste melodie, Brian Boru’s March, krijgt een verfrissende opknapbeurt,trommels en fluiten spelen daarbij een belangrijke rol. Dan volgt de melodie van The Minstrel Man, sfeervol gebracht door diverse instrumenten en met een sobere maar treffende harmonisatie omkaderd. Als ‘uitsmijter’ is erhet opgewekte The Irish Washerwoman - deze vrolijke finale besluit dit muzikale bezoek aan het oneindig groene eiland.

In Dublin Dances verknüpfte Jan Van der Roost drei bekannte Melodien zu einem ansprechenden Ganzen: Brian Borus’s March, bekannt vor allem durch den Flötisten James Galway, ist geprägt von Flöten und Trommeln; dann folgt The Minstrel Man, ein stimmungsvolles Lied, das in mehreren Instrumentierungen erscheint und schließlich - als Clou - The Irish Washerwoman im typisch irischen 6/8-Takt als fröhliches Finale dieses musikalischen Besuchs auf der ewig grünen Insel.

Pour créer cette rhapsodie irlandaise, Jan Van der Roost a puisé dans la richesse de la musique traditionnelle irlandaise. Dublin Dances (“Danses de Dublin”) rassemble trois célèbres mélodies qui forment le canevas de l’œuvre.La première mélodie, Brian Boru’s March, a fait le tour du monde dans les années 1980, gr ce l’interprétatio n du brillant fl tiste James Galway. Dublin Dances en offre une version nouvelle, pleine de fraîcheur. Ancrée dans la tradition de la musique irlandaise, la place accordée aux fl tes et la percussion apparaît comme une évidence.La seconde mélodie, The Minstrel Man, s’appuie sur une superbe courbe qui chemineavec fluidité entre divers instruments. L’harmonisation qui la sous-tend est d’une étonnante, mais somptueuse sobriété.Point culminant de la structure, le pétillant rythme de danse de l’air The Irish Washerwoman écrit en 6/8, un chiffrage de mesure souvent utilisé dans la musique irlandaise. Ce brillant et virevoltant finale clôt ce voyage musical dans l’éternelle île verte où musique et sociabilité sont unies par un lien indéfectible.

The Last Rose of Summer is a popular Irish folksong. The original text was written by Thomas Moore (1779-1852) and the melody is a traditional air titled The Groves of Blarney. The German composer Friedrich von Flotow (1812-1883) cleverly used this song in his opera Martha, a light-hearted, successful work that is still regularly performed. The melancholy character of The Last Rose of Summer still appeals to many people in the present day and this arrangement by Wil van der Beek certainly does justice to the beauty of the melody. A wonderful item to change the mood of any performance.
