The Odyssee tells the story of Odysseus, the undaunted hero.
In times long ago the blind poet Homer wrote this famous epic.
The Odyssey follows the Iliad, the story of the bloody war between the Greek and the Trojans. This battle endsafter ten years thanks to the Odysseys famous trick. the Trojan Horse.
The Odyssey is not a war epic, but a story about perseverance, loyalty, adventure, and the survival instinct of its ingenious hero.
In The Odyssey, Homer describes howOdysseus, the king of Ithaca, had to endure another ten years of affliction after the ten years of war in Troy before he could finally return to his home land.
During those years, his wife, Penelope, had to try and keep her many admirers away.These men not only wanted het hand but also the kingship. To prove her husbands worth, she played a trick: As soon as I have finished weaving this shroud for my father-in-law, Laertes, I will choose one of you to become my husband, she promisedthem.
But during the night, she secretly loosened what she had woven during the day, prolonging the time until Odysseus would finally return. After twenty long years, when he finally stood at the door, she wondered: Is this really my husband? Ishe an imposter? Cunningly, she asked him to move the bed, because only she and her husband know that the bed was immovable and was build around an old three trunk! Odysseus was deeply moved: this really was his wife, his Penelope!
Nearly threethousands years later, the loyalty and strength of this character, and all the dangerous adventures that Odysseus survived thanks to courage and intelligence, still moves us today.

Odyssee by Jan Bosveld is not just an adventure story, butrather a characteristic piece in which memories of Homers story can be heard.
The composition opens with a firm, stirring theme describing our hero, Odysseus, in detail: This man is not to be taken lightly.
The further development of thisshort introduction completes this character sketch: trustworthy, perseverant, and a genius.
After that we can picture Odysseus on the lonely beach of Ogygia. Do the trumpets depict his memories of the war of Troy? Does he think of his wife, as werecognise the weaving loom of Penelope in the murmuring eighth?
In the solemn, plaintive part that follows, we can imagine Penelope feeling lonely, sitting in the womens room with her servants.One of the girls plays the harp, but that does notclear the sombre atmosphere. Then we can imagine seeing the sorceress Circe, who changed Odysseus men into swine. After she gives a simple magic sign something follows that reminds us of the sound of pigs grunting. Then the Odysseus theme resounds:the hero comes to savi his comrades. Assisted by Hermes, he forces Circe to lift the spell.
The piece ends the same way as it began, with an animated theme: Odysseus is still the same, undefeated and not to be taken lighty!

Het muzikale relaas van de Griekse schrijver Homerus over de held Odyssee in een karakterstuk vol herinneringen.
Een stevig opgewekt thema symboliseert de grootsheid van Odyssee en zijn karaktertrekken - betrouwbaar, volhardenden vernuftig. De tegenslagen welke hij tegenkomt en in het tweede tragische gedeelte dreigen te escaleren, nemen in het derde snelle gedeelte bij zijn verschijning toch weer een positieve wending.
Nijmegenaar Jan Bosveld bewijstin dit originele werk dat hij op de hoogte is van de onmogelijkheden, maar vooral de ongekende mogelijkheden van muzikanten uit de lagere afdelingen.

MARS (135X180) inches. English-German-French-Dut ch.

The Latin title Ad Fontis means ?to the source?. This lively march in 2/4time follows traditional forms of march composition with a cheerfulopening followed by a somewhat more lyrical trio. This ceremonialgenre of old is often used in the army to keep up the morale of thetroops, however a march can also serve perfectly well to add luster toany concert and bring immense pleasure to the audience.

Ad Fontis is een vrolijke mars in tweekwartsmaat, geschreven door Harm Evers. De Latijnse titel van het werk betekent: naar de bron. Deze mars heeft dan ook geen ingewikkelde vorm, maar bestaat uit een opgewekt eerste gedeelteen een wat lyrischer trio - in de traditie van de marsmuziek. Dit ceremoniële genre wordt van oudsher in het leger gebruikt om het moreel van de manschappen hoog te houden. Een mars kan echter ook uitstekend dienen ter opluisteringvan elk concert - vaak tot groot genoegen van het publiek.

Ad Fontis ist ein lebhafter Marsch im Zweivierteltakt. Unter dem Titel Zur Quelle“ folgt Harm Evers der ursprünglichen, traditionellen Marschform, die sich aus einem lebhaften ersten Teil und einem lyrischen Trio zusammensetzt. Dieses zeremonielle Genre wird von Alters her in der Armee eingesetzt, eignet sich jedoch auch wunderbar dazu, einem Konzert mehr Glanz zu verleihen - nicht zuletzt zum Vergnügen des Publikums.

Ad Fontis (“ la source”) est une marche pétillante en 2/4 signée Harm Evers. Cette marche s’appuie sur une structure simple : une première partie pleine de vivacité et un trio lyrique qui s’inscrit dans les traditions des grandes marches. Ce genre musical cérémonieux fut prisé par l’armée pour maintenir le moral des troupes. Aujourd’hui, la marche apporte une touche de brillance tout programme de concert - pour le plus grand plaisir du public.
