Jubiloso, maestoso, tranquillo, lyrico, dynamic detail, captivating rhythms, woodwind choir, brass choir and more! All the elements of a great grade 3 festival piece are here. Tutti sections contrast with subtle and delicate scoring as this melodic masterpiece weaves its magic around the beautiful hymn “What Wondrous Love is This?” Careful attention has been paid to cross cueing so that bands that are missing an instrument here or there can still do a credible interpretation. Memorable!

In The Essence of Youth the composer gives an insight into childhood and youth — inspired by his own daughter. The opening of sparking rhythms, dynamic contrasts and changes of time signature paint a vivid picture of the unpredictability of children. The first and second movements recount the love — and also tension and the worries — in the adult-child bond, through dissonant harmonies but also pretty melodies. The fugue-like ending leads to a final splendid chorale: a picture of proud parents with their child!

In The Essence of Youth geeft de componist zijn visie op de kindertijd en de jeugd. Zijn eigen dochter vormde hierbij een belangrijke inspiratiebron.

Het eerste en tweede deel vertellen over de liefde, zorg en toewijding die horen bij een ouder-kindrelatie.

A contrast between heroic trumpet melodies and lyrical woodwind lines highlight this effective new composition from Alan Lee Silva. Bands will sound their best and love doing it with this distinctive new piece that is suitable for concert or contest.
Staccato brass figures along with woodwind trills and runs highlight the powerful opening of Legend of the Lake. The trumpet states the heroic main theme at m. 10. The dynamics soften in m. 18 for a lyrical flute solo, playing the B-melody. The full woodwind section is featured at m. 26 in a reprise of the B-melody. The trumpets proclaim the A-melody again at m. 34 with full band accompaniment, plus woodwind fills and background lines. The interlude at m. 42 features each section of the band independently as well as the entire ensemble in concerted rhythms.The reiteration of the introduction material at m. 49 builds to a slow maestoso treatment of the A-theme. A short contrapuntal interlude, featuring woodwinds at m. 61, leads to an ending statement with the complete group at m. 66. Measure 68 is a percussion feature that builds to the explosive final tonic chord and staccato unison ending.

The Sirens were sea nymphs, usually pictured as part woman and part bird, who lived on a secluded island surrounded by rocks. Their enchanting song was irresistible to passing sailors, who were lured to their deaths as their ships were destroyed upon the rocks. The Lovely Sirens presents three ideas: the Sirens' beautiful song, an unfortunate group of sailors whose course takes them near the island, and the disaster that befalls the sailors. The sailors' peril is represented by the Morse code S.O.S. signal (three dots, three dashes, and three dots--represented musically by short and long rhythms). The S.O.S. signal grows increasingly more insistent and distressed as it becomes obvious that the sailors, smitten with the voices of the Sirens, are headed for their demise.

Philip Sparke's The Saga Of Haakon The Good for Brass Band. Score and parts.

The Saga of Haakon the Good werd geschreven in opdracht van Frei Hornmusikk uit Noorwegen, ter gelegenheid van het samengaan van de twee Kommuner (gemeenten) Frei en Kristiansund op 1 januari 2008. Deze brassband gebruikte het werk bij het Noorse Nationale Brassbandkampioenschap in februari. De compositie is gebaseerd op belangrijke gebeurtenissen in het leven van Haakon de Goede (ca. 920-961), die koning Haakon 1 van Noorwegen werd - THE FUTURE KING. Hij werd opgevoed door koning Adelstein (Athelstan van Engeland) als onderdeel van een vredesovereenkomst die zijn vader had gesloten. De Engelse koning bracht hem de christelijke godsdienst bij. Toen het nieuws kwam dat zijnvader was overleden, kreeg Haakon een aantal schepen met bemanning mee om ten strijde te trekken tegen zijn halfbroer Erik Bloedbijl, die tot koning was uitgeroepen. In Noorwegen aangekomen trok hij noordwaarts - THE JOURNEY TO TRONDHEIM -, waar hij de steun van landeigenaren wist te verkrijgen door ze te beloven dat hij de belastingen die zijn vader hief, zou afschaffen.De zoons van Erik zochten steun bij de Denen, maar ze werden verslagen door Haakon, die slaagde in alles wat hij deed, behalve in zijn pogingen het christendom in het land te introduceren - THE MISSIONARY KING. Hij voelde zich niet opgewassen tegen het verzet dat hij hierin ondervond. Een van zijn beroemdste overwinningen was de slag bij Rastarkalv (dicht bij Frei) - THE BATTLE OF RASTARKALV - in 955. Door tien vaandels ver van elkaar te plaatsen langs een lage bergkam (om de indruk te wekken dat zijn leger groter was dan in werkelijkheid) lukte het hem om Eriks zoons het idee te geven dat zij in de minderheid waren. De Denen vluchtten en het leger van Haakon zegevierde. De genoemde tien vaandels worden weergegeven door tien luide akkoorden vanaf maat 420.

The Saga of Haakon the Good reflektiert das Leben von Konig Haakon I von Norwegen (um 920-961). Jeder der vier Satze dieses Werkes hat etwas Besonderes zu bieten - von ausdrucksvollen Lento-Passagen bis zu dynamischen rhythmischen Abschnitten und vielen spannenden Soli. The Saga of Haakon the Good war bereits Pflichtstück bei den British National Brass Band Championships 2008. Wahrhaft meisterlich!

Un superbe morceau impose, par le roi des imposes Philip Sparke. Base sur la legende de Haakon le bon (vers 920-961).

Composed by Jacob De Haan. Inspiration Series. Festive and Solemn Music. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 1997. De Haske Publications #DHP 0971085-010. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-0971085-010).

Jacob de Haan was commissioned to compose this concert piece by the St. Peters Wind Symphony from Brisbane, Australia. Ross Roy is the monumental late 19th century villa where St. Peters Lutheran College was founded in 1945. The villa has always remained the school symbol. In this composition, Jacob de Haan sees the Ross Roy as a metaphor for the years spent at school (a monument in time), where one's personality is formed. So, the opening theme the artist calls the Ross Roy theme initially has monumental characteristics.The rhythmic motion, which strides along in the lower register and percussion at the beginning of the next section is typical of Tempo di Marcia. Thismovement, accompanied by repetitions of sound, is a metaphor for the structure and discipline in school. This is the introduction to a march theme, symbolic of passing through the classes up to the final examinations.Then, the Ross Roy theme is dealt with again, now in a playful, humorous variation. As if the composer is saying there should also be time for a smile in school. The same theme can be heard in major key and a slower tempo in the following section, expressing pride and self-confidence. This is also the introduction to the expressive middle section that represents love, friendship and understanding.We then return to the march theme in a slightly altered construction. The oriental sounds, constituting the modulation to the final theme, are symbols of the diversity of cultures in the school. The characteristic final theme first sounds solemn, but turns into a festive apotheosis. It is no coincidence that the final cadence is reminiscent of the close to a traditional overture, for the school years can be considered the overture to the rest of one's life. The premiere of Ross Roy was conducted by Jacob de Haan in Brisbane, on August 22, 1997.

Ross Roy is de naam van de monumentale villa in Brisbane (Australië) waar in 1945 het St. Peters Lutheran College is gesticht. In opdracht van het collegeorkest componeerde Jacob de Haan dit gevarieerde concertwerk vol metaforen.De structuur en discipline van de school horen we in de met toonherhaling gepaard gaande ritmische beweging in basregister en slagwerk. Het volgende, martiale thema staat symbool voor het doorlopen van de klassen. Een schertsende,humoristische versie van het hoofdthema ontbreekt niet: op school moet immers ook tijd zijn voor vrolijkheid. Het karakteristieke slotthema mondt uit in een feestelijke apotheose.

Ross Roy ist der Name einer monumentalen Villa in Brisbane, Australien, in der 1945 das St. Peter Lutheran College gegründet wurde. Im Auftrag dieses Schulorchesters komponierte Jacob de Haan dieses Konzertwerk, das voll von Metaphern ist. Die Struktur und Disziplin dieser Schule hören wir in der mit Tonwiederholungen gepaarten rhythmischen Bewegung des Bassregisters und des Schlagwerks. Das folgende martialische Thema steht als Symbol für das Durchlaufen der Klassen bis zum Ende der Schulzeit. Eine scherzhafte, humoristische Version des Hauptthemas darf nicht fehlen, denn in der Schule muss auch Zeit für kleine Späße und Lachen sein! Das charakteristische Schlussthemamündet in einem festlichen Höhepunkt.

Ross Roy est le symbole grandiose de l’excellence du compositeur. L’œuvre tient son nom de l’imposante villa éponyme située Brisbane en Australie et qui abrite en ses murs le Collège Saint Pierre, une institution luthérienne fondée en 1945. C’est pour l’Orchestre d’Harmonie de cet établissement que Jacob de Haan composa cette œuvre riche en métaphores. « J’ai tenté de décrire les valeurs de cette école. Ainsi, le thème initial se développe-t-il sur un motif rythmique imposant qui alterne entre les instruments graves et la batterie. Ce motif symbolise l’autorité et le cadre structuré de l’école. On retrouve ce thème plusieurs reprises et notamment sousune forme humoristique et espiègle : nous découvrons les bons côtés de l’école, la joie des élèves, les sentiments de fierté, d’amour et d’amitié. Autre élément thématique, une marche qui symbolise la progression des élèves dans leur cursus pour arriver leurs examens de fin d'étude. » En guise de conclusion, Jacob de Haan nous offre un thème grandiose qui s’élargit en apothéose.

Commissionato dalla St. Peter’s Wind Symphony Orchestra di Brisbane, è dedicato alla monumentale villa tardo-ottocentesca dove il collegio dell’orchestra ha avuto la sua storica sede. Metafora degli anni della formazione, è caratterizzato da un finale in stile ouverture, come se gli anni della scuola rappresentassero una sorta di ouverture al resto della vita.
