Based on
the traditional American
shaped-note melody The
Promised Land (first
published in the 1800's),
Beyond the Stars captures
the spirit of the early
American church musicians
who voiced their
enthusiasm for life and
the freedom of worship
through both vocal and
instrumental music. The
music features several
mini-variations wrapped
up in four large
variations (Fast, Fast,
Slow,
Fast-recapitulation). The
composer has created new
thematic material for
each variation by
excerpting motifs from
three separate phrases of
the original shaped-note
melody. A stunning and
powerful work for winds.
Dur: c. 6:20.

Tribute
to a Maestro is an
homage to Jean-Philippe
Rameau (1683 1764), one
of the most important
French Baroque composers.
Rameau was a hugely
significant composer,
organist, harpsichordist
and music teacher: he
also published several
authoritative books on
music theory. Jan de Haan
based this tribute on a
theme from ‘Les
Sauvages’ (The
Savages), the fourth act
of Rameau’s
ballet-opera, Les
Indes Galantes
(The Amorous
Indies). The work
begins with two
variations, whereupon the
striking theme can be
heard. After a short
intermezzo, four more
variations follow, of
which the last one is
composed in Baroque
style.

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.

This
composition is based on a
passacaglia theme, in
which artistic
perfection, symphonic
drama and oriental melody
lines play a role. The
passacaglia is originally
a dance made up of a
series of variations
above a bass line
constantly present as an
ostinato. It is not in
this sense that the
Symphonic Variations are
in the passacaglia form
but in the sense of the
open form of the
variations. Jacob de
Haan, himself originally
an organist, took his
inspiration for this
piece from the famous
passacaglia for organ in
C-minor by J.S. Bach.
Following the
introduction of the
passacaglia theme (in the
bass) the entry by the
trumpets and trombones
forms the majestic start
to amusical adventure, in
which this theme (often
fragmentary) returns in
variations. Then there
follow two faster
movements with dramatic
contrasts and virtuose
passages. Particularly
striking here is the use
of two characteristic
intervals from the
beginning of the theme
namely the minor second
and the augmented fourth.
An apause in the
composition comes in the
slow bridge where a
syncopated bourdon
(perfect fifth) is
constantly repeated. The
tension grows in dynamics
and harmony, and the
oriental-flavour becomes
obvious in the melody. We
arrive at a faster
movement via an
accelerando, in which a
perpetuum mobile based on
the passacaglia theme is
central. Finally the
whole flows into a
martial theme, in which
the ostinato
accompaniment n the
descant derives from the
passacaglia theme.

together form a beautiful

composer has a fresh view

Where the

beautiful, lyrical work
for young band. Featuring
flowing melodic lines and
a beautiful four-note
motive that transfers
throughout the ensemble,
the piece is a perfect
mid-program work to
feature the colors of the
different instrumental
sections, permitting
opportunities to teach
about blend and balance
within the group. This
original Jeremy Bell
piece was inspired by the
picturesque salt flats in
Bolivia called Salar de
Uyuni. Located in the
Southwest near the Andes,
the flats were formed by
the transformations of
several prehistoric
lakes. With variations in
elevation that average
around a meter, the
extreme flatness
following a rain turns
the 80-mile landscape
into the world's largest
mirror, reflecting the
sky above. (3:30).

sections, permitting
opportunities to teach
about blend and balance
within the group. This
original Jeremy Bell
piece was inspired by the
picturesque salt flats in
Bolivia called Salar de
Uyuni. Located in the
Southwest near the Andes,
the flats were formed by
the transformations of
several prehistoric
lakes. With variations in
elevation that average
around a meter, the
extreme flatness
following a rain turns
the 80-mile landscape
into the world's largest
mirror, reflecting the
sky above. (3:30).
