Handel in the Band is a virtuoso set of symphonic variations on one of Handel's best known keyboard dances, the Sarabande from his Suite in D minor, HWV 437, based on the Spanish traditional dance La Folia. Kenneth Downie's work was commissioned by Brass Band Treize Etoiles, for performance at the 2013 Swiss National Brass Band Championships, where it was conducted by James Gourlay. The title is a reference to Percy Grainger's popular Handel in the Strand, and is indicative of the witty and theatrical nature of the music, which is more playful than conventional competition pieces and as such offers different challenges to brass bands as well as being thoroughly entertaining for audiences.

Kenneth Downie is one of the most respected and experienced brass band composers. His music has been widely performed and published throughout the brass band world since the 1960s.

Full of intrigue and mystery, Variations on a Bass Theme is a treat for the ears. A plethora of thematic material emerges out of tuba section in the opening bar, creating the jumping off point for the whole work. Lloyd takes the listener down numerous unexpected paths, conjuring many visual images along the way as if watching a movie.

Variations on a Bass Theme was written in 1986 for brass band and the original version was titled Diversions on a Bass Theme. The composer himself wrote: This piece is a set of variations. Traditionally variations were what they said they were, i.e. a given tune was treated in a variety of ways. The pattern of this work is made the other way round: a number of tunes grow out of the first bar, played by the tubas, which provide the motif for the whole work. Arranger's Note: The suggestion to arrange the work for symphonic wind band came from George Lloyd: he felt the piece lent itself to such transcription and asked if I would be interested in undertaking it. Interestingly, he always referred to the piece as his Variations on a Bass Theme and I have reflected this in the title of this concert band version. In all other respects the work is exactly as George Lloyd wrote it.

MusicWorks – Grade 4 First published in 1989, this work from the late Calvin Custer epitomizes his command of orchestration and understanding of musical pacing. The familiar folk melody is stated first by a solo flute then followed by a remarkable series of variations starting with a brass choir accompanied by woodwind flourishes. An Andante variation features the woodwind choir accompanying solos by baritone and oboe, and this leads to a striking fugue variation and bold finish. Truly symphonic band writing at its best. (4:45).

Gorgeous. The Partita is a wonderful piece of music. Although this piece can be played by young bands, it is musically mature and will be an ideal center piece for any band concert, middle school through the university level. Bring the audience to you with Partita.

Partita was originally composed for brass band in 1973. The work is in three movements, and uses material based on the 13th century plainsong 'Dies Irae. the opening Intrada is sombre. the second movement is a 'chorale and variations. the chorale melody follows the main outline of the plainsong. the five variations are varied in mood and intensity. the final March is much happier in mood and has a lyrical tune in the middle first heard on horns. However, references to the 'Dies Irae' are still apparent and the final bars of the work contain a quote from the opening movement.

Festive Variations on Lasst uns Erfreuen, is based freely on the German chorale melody more commonly known as All Creatures of Our God and King. In five variations, this work begins with an Allegro introduction in 6/8, followed by a serene statement of the theme. The first variation reflects the 6/8 optimism of the introduction. The second has a more majestic texture in 3/4 time, featuring brass and percussion. The third variation is a scherzo, fairly fragmentary and more disjunct than the others. This is the most academic of the variations. The fourth is a gentle ballad freely based on the first four notes of the melody. The fifth variation returns to the complete melody, found in a fugato with variations within. Before the work concludes, the original introduction and theme are restated in their first form, followed by a coda based on the introductory motive.

Vivat Mozart werd als thema met variaties gecomponeerd. Als uitgangspunt gebruikte Kees Schoonenbeek het openingsthema van Mozarts pianoconcert KV 503. Daarover ontwikkelde hij veelzijdige muzikale ideeën, van de originelestijl tot aan de blues voerend. Het gaat hier om een typische Mozart-melodie: natuurlijk, direct, bijna volksliedachtig en heel expressief.

Viv at Mozart wurde als Thema mit Variationen komponiert. Ausgangspunkt war das Eingangsthema des dritten Satzes aus Mozarts Klavierkonzert in C (KV 503). Daraus wurden sehr vielseitige musikalische Ideen, die vom volksliedartigen Stil der Originalmelodie bis hin zum Blues führen, entwickelt. Vivat Mozart setzt sich auf vergnügliche Weise mit der Musik eines großen Meisters auseinander und eignet sich ausgezeichnet dazu, diesen Ihren jungen Musikern nahe zu bringen.

En associant son talent de compositeur sa grande créativité, Kees Schoonenbeek a créé Vivat Mozart, une œuvre délicate et fluide en forme de variations sur le Concerto pour piano KV 503 du génie de Salzbourg, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Based on the shaped note melody Saints Bound For Heaven, Jubilee by James Curnow captures a feeling of joyful celebration through a series of unique and skillfully adapted variations. The opening strains are actually fragments of the first variation and occur before the main tune is introduced by low brass and woodwinds. The second variation features a euphonium solo and builds to a glorious climax with the full ensemble. The final variation is joyful and filled with energy, using flourishes in the woodwinds and fanfares in the brass for a grand conclusion to this marvelous work. (Grade 3.5) Dur: 5:30.

Variazio ni in Blue besteht aus einer Reihe von Variationen, die auf melodischen Blueselementen wie die blue notes beruhen. Einer ornamentalen Variation im klassischen Stil schliesst sich eine Blues-Variation an. Dann folgt eine temporeiche, osteuropaische Variation. Das Werk ist dadurch sehr vielschichtig und abwechslungsreich und passt hervorragend in den konzertanten Teil eines Konzertes. Auch als Wertungsspielstuck ist es sehr gut geeignet.

Variazioni in Blue est base sur une serie de variations dans laquelle des elements du blues (comme les fameuses blue notes) servent de fil conducteur. Apres une introduction majestueuse qui revele partiellement le theme central, on entend une premiere variation ornementale dans un style classique. Elle est suivie par une deuxieme variation dans le style du blues et par une troisieme, plus rapide, dont le caractere provient des musiques traditionnelles d'Europe de l'Est. L'Andante espressivo contient de subtils changements harmoniques. Ce mouvement evolue en une reprise de la variation folklorique precedente dont l'intensite est augmentee par le passage enMajeur qui conduit vers le finale.

A quiet prelude begins this composition for three flutes and vibes accompanying the melody for alto sax. This melody is the basic building blocks for Prelude-Variations. An Allegro Vivo follows with variations on the original tune. The piece ends with original alto sax melody brought back with a harmonic ostinato in the brass and a captivating percussion pattern. The piece ends with the horns announcing the motive one last time. Be sure to put the horn bells up as they play the trill announcing a terrific climactic ending. An enjoyable challenge for your band!
