The tradition of the Christmas tree in Western Europe dates back to a time long before any Christianization had taken place. During the severely cold winter nights, so it was believed, evil spirits tried to 'kill' nature. Needle-leaved trees were the only ones which kept their green colour throughout the year, and therefore became symbols of immortality. These 'living' trees, said to be the work of benign spirits, were brought into people's houses to ward off evil, life-threatening powers. In the 14th century people first started to decorate Christmas trees. It was a pagan custom, originated by the inhabitants of Alsace. This custom was taken over by the Church inthe course of the 15th and 16th century. At first the decoration consisted mainly of edibles, such as apples and wafers, but later small presents were added. Legend has it that the reformer Martin Luther was the first person to decorate a Christmas tree with candles. The flickering candle flames were meant to create the image of a starry sky in which Christ's apparition could be recognized. The German organ-player Ernst Anschütz from Leipzig was the first person to notate the song 'O Tannenbaum', the melody being a well-known folk song. Next to 'Stille Nacht' 'O Tannenbaum' is the most famous German Christmas song, now known throughout the world. In the United States of America the melody of 'O Tannenbaum' has even been used in four States (among which the State of Maryland) for their State song. In David Well's arrangement the song is first heard as many of us know it. After this introduction, however, it is transformed into a solid rock version, and the beat has been changed. In the second part the familiar three-four time is back, but here the rhythm is different from the original. After the richly ornamented rock beat the basic theme can be heard once again and the composition is concluded in a festive manner.

De traditie van de ‘Kerstboom’ gaat in West-Europa terug tot ver voordat er van enige kerstening sprake was. Gedurende de koude strenge winters dacht men dat kwade geesten de natuur ‘vermoordde’. Naaldbomen behielden als enige hungroene kleur en werden daardoor symbolen van onsterflijkheid. Deze ‘levende’ bomen, het werk van goede machten, werden in huis gehaald om kwade geesten en levensbedreigende krachten buitenshuis te houden. Van ‘versierde’ kerstbomenwas het eerst sprake in de 14e eeuw. Het was een heidens gebruik, dat in deze periode in de Elzas voorkwam. Tijdens de 15e en 16e eeuw werd het versieren van de kerstboom door de kerk overgenomen. De versiering bestond in eersteinstantie vooral uit etenswaar, als appels en koekjes. Later ging men ook kleine cadeautjes als versiering gebruiken. Er wordt beweerd dat Martin Luther, de hervormer, als eerste kaarsen in een kerstboom deed. De fonkelende vlammetjescreëerden een sterrenhemel waarin men Christus’ verschijning leek te herkennen. De Duitse organist Ernst Anschütz uit Leipzig, was de eerste die het lied ‘O Tannenbaum’ op schrift stelde. De melodie was een bekend volkswijsje.Naast ‘Stille Nacht’ is ‘O Tannenbaum’ het meest bekende kerstlied dat vanuit Duitsland de hele wereld veroverde. De melodie van ‘O Tannenbaum’ wordt zelfs in de Verenigde Staten van Amerika in vier verschillende staten (o.a.Maryland) als volkslied gebruikt. In het arrangement van David Well hoort u het lied eerst op de manier zoals velen het kennen. Na deze inleiding klinkt een stevige rock-versie en is de maatsoort niet meer de gebruikelijke. Het tussendeelis weer in de vertrouwde driekwarts-maatsoort. Hier is echter de ritmiek in een ander jasje gestoken. Na de rijkelijk met slingers versierde rock-beat klinkt nog één keer het oorspronkelijke thema om daarna feestelijk af.

Four unforgettable disco songs come together in one stunning medley. Up fi rst is the 1979 dance floor hit I’m in the Mood for Dancing by The Nolans. Next the medley quiets down with a charming love song, Lovin’ You, a song Minnie Riperton dedicated to her daughter. You Can’t Hurry Love was a huge success for The Supremes in 1966 and Phil Collins repeated their success in 1983 making the song immortal. This exciting medley ends with Olivia Newton-John’s hit-song Xanadu, from her 1980 musical of the same name.

Vier disco-evergreens in één medley voor harmonieorkest. Het begint gelijk al goed! I’m in the Mood for Dancing van de gezusters Nolans uit 1979. In alle windstreken kregen zij met dit nummer mensen de dansvloer op. Hiernavolgt de betoverende lovesong Lovin’ You. Minnie Riperton droeg het in 1975 op aan haar toen tweejarige dochtertje. You Can’t Hurry Love was zowel voor de Supremes in 1966 als voor Phil Collins een geweldige hit. Xanaduvan Olivia Newton-John uit de gelijknamige musical van 1980 besluit deze boeiende medley van Naohiro Iwai. Dat wordt swingen!

Vier Evergreens aus der Disco-Ära in einem Blasorchester-Medley: Den Anfang macht I’m in the Mood for Dancing, mit dem die Geschwister- Combo The Nolans 1979 auf vier Kontinenten die Menschen auf die Tanzflächen jagte. Danach folgt als Ruhepunkt das bezaubernde Liebeslied Lovin’ You, das Minnie Riperton 1975 ihrer kleinen Tochter widmete. You Can’t Hurry Love war in der Originalversion von 1966 für die Supremes ein Riesenhit - Phil Collins wiederholte diesen Erfolg 1983 und machte den Song unsterblich. Den Abschluss von Naohiro Iwais mitreißendem Medley bildet Olivia Newton-Johns Hit Xanadu aus dem gleichnamigen Musical von 1980.

Ce medley tonique, signé Naohiro Iwai, réunit quatre standards des années disco. I’m in the Mood for Dancing, des sœurs Nolan (The Nolans Sisters), ouvre la série. Sortie en 1979, cette chanson a fait bouger des générations de danseurs. La musique s’apaise sur les notes délicieuses de la ballade Lovin’ You, que Minnie Ripperton dédia sa fille. Au cours de l’été 1966, The Supremes connaissent la gloire, avec la version originale du titre You Can’t Hurry Love. En 1983, Phil Collins renouvelle le succès des Supremes et rend la chanson immortelle. Pour clore son medley, Naohiro Iwai a choisi Xanadu (1980), la chanson phare de la comédiemusicale éponyme, qui prolongea le succès d'Olivia Newton-John.

Roger Zare is living every young composer's dream. At a tender age, he has already been lauded by the best, and his compositions continue to earn awards. Green Flash, his first publication with Theodore Presser Company, was written in 2007 for the USC Thornton Symphony, received a BMI Student Composer award in 2007, was chosen to be read at the 2008 American Composers Orchestra Underwood New Music Readings, won the ASCAP Rudolf Nissim Prize in 2009, and has now won the 2012 Symphony in C Young Composers' Competition. For more about Green Flash and a YouTube video of the premiere performance, see the composer's website (www.rogerzare.com/greenf lash.htm).
A “green flash” is a rare atmospheric phenomenon that occurs as a sunset reaches its end. If conditions are just right, then a spark of green will hover on the horizon for a fleeting moment as the sun disappears. I first witnessed this subtle effect in Florida in 2005. Seeing the mythical event for the first time inspiredthis composition. Green Flash is a musical journey from daybreak to sunset. It focuses on the manipulation of colors and textures throughout its five sections. The musical events are designed to paint a picture of various scenes during the day. The piece begins with the heartbeat of the world emerging from the silentdarkness of the night. As night transitions to dawn, waves of color propagate from the repeating low C, building up through the harmonic series to become the vibrant colors of sunrise. Eventually all twelve notes of the chromatic scale are sounding together. Abruptly, a morning fog engulfs the scene. Out of the mist rises the only melodic theme in the work, played by a solo English horn, and later taken up by other solo winds. Once the fog dissipates, the sky fills with the playful dance of wispy cirrus clouds. A rainbow-like halo surrounds the sun, adding a burst of color to the scene. This carefree, optimistic cloud dance is invaded by a menacing front of cumulonimbus clouds. A storm rages at a frantic pace, but in its dying breath yields the most glorious of sunsets. Only as the last glint of sunlight disappears below the horizon, a faint sparkle of green lingers in the atmosphere.

‘Christmas Colours’ is a palette consisting of several Christmas songs.
Bruce Fraser has mainly used the colours green (the colour of holly) and white (the colour of snow).
This composition begins with the chiming of festive bells - if you listen well, however, you can already hear short fragments from 'The Holly and the Ivy', whose entire melody is finally played, alternated with 'The Sussex Carol'. After this, the pace slows down and the stately 'See amid the Winter Snow' sounds, but parts from 'Jingle Bells' and 'Silent Night' can also be heard.
Then, after walking under 'The Holly and the Ivy' once again, the celebration of Christmas may begin!

Christmas Colours is een potpourri met allemaal verschillende kerstliedjes.
Bruce Fraser gebruikt vooral de kleuren groen van de 'holly' (hulst) en wit van de 'snow' (sneeuw).

Tenslotte lopen we nog één keer onder 'The Holly and the Ivy' door en kan het Kerstfeest beginnen.

Written by British composer George Butterworth in 1913, this classic work is based on two folk songs - “The Banks of Green Willow” and “Green Bushes” (the latter also appearing in works by Grainger and Vaughan Williams). Butterworth died in World War I at the age of 31, and this composition remains his most popular, regarded as an anthem for “Unknown Soldiers.” Here is a masterful setting for winds adapted by Robert Longfield.

Martin Mailman (1932-2000) composed Alarums for Band, Op. 27 in 1962 in Greenville, North Carolina. The word alarum means a call to arms. The piece was originally titled Overture for Band and was later changed to Alarums for Band sometime between its completion in 1962 and publication in 1969 with John Barnes Chance, Mailman's colleague and friend, probably suggesting the change in title sometime during this period. Bold and commanding, a cherished addition to the Belwin Classic Band series.
