Altho ugh some stories in Greek mythology reveal a different side to his character, Apollo was widely regarded to hold a cheerful personality and communicating joy through the music he played on his lyre. Apollo Arise is an energetic and spirited work for band ideal for opening a concert. The uplifting and exuberant melodic material lead the group on a sonic journey to capture the joy and light music can bring to both the audience and the performer.
Program NotesAmong the many stories in Greek mythology, Apollo holds a unique place as a complex Olympian god known for truth, prophecy, healing, poetry, plague, knowledge, light and music. Although some stories reveal a different side to his character, Apollo was widely regarded to hold a cheerful personality and communicated joy through the music he played on his lyre. Apollo Arise is an energetic and spirited work for band, ideal for opening a concert. The uplifting and exuberant melodic material lead the group on a sonic journey to capture the joy and light music can bring to both the audience and performer. From the dynamic opening fanfare to the soaring motifs and rhythms that follow, Apollo Arise provides a wonderful opportunity for the ensemble to reach for new musical heights in their performance!    Rehearsal Notes and SuggestionsThe opening twenty-four measures of the work are important for the rest of the work to unfold successfully. Encourage the ensemble to play with a unified articulation style, maintain a proper balance, and establish a consistent tempo through this section as several recurring rhythms must be performed consistently. Measure 38 features a trumpet solo, so be sure that the rest of the ensemble balances their line to support the solo instrument. In the section that begins at m. 67, there is an optional solo opportunity for trumpet and trombone. Both of these sections provide nice contrast against the full ensemble sections that are present in the work. The section at m. 81 includes a call-and-response section between woodwind, brass and percussion groups. Be sure that as groups enter, the tempo remains consistent and that the winds articulation style is unified and complimentary to the percussion. As the opening fanfare returns at m. 101, remind the ensemble to play with consistent style, balance and tempo as they did in the opening. As the ensemble begins the part of the journey with Apollo at m. 110, the music contains unique layers that must work together to be effective and set up the material that begins at m. 127. Encourage the group to play so they can hear all other lines, and allow their energy to grow into a focused musical celebration by the final note. Thank you in advance for your support of this music, and I wish you and your ensemble well as Apollo Arise welcomes the audience to your concert hall.

Ministry of Winds provides some interesting food for thought that Jacob de Haan translates into music. What if there was a Ministry of Winds? It would be in charge of the advancement and dissemination of music throughout the nation, as well as strengthening the state through music and providing its citizens with entertainment, support, comfort and joy. All these aspects are mirrored in Jacob de Haan's composition, culminating in all the joy and happiness the creation of this ministry has provided to the people.

Ministr y of Winds is een interessant hersenspinsel van Jacob de Haan dat hij omzette in muziek: hoe zou het zijn, als we een ministerie van blaasmuziek hadden? Met als taak de promotie en de verspreiding van muziek in het land?Zo'n ministerie zou het land een echt groepsgevoel kunnen geven en de burgers amusement, kracht, trots en geluk brengen. Al deze aspecten komen terug in deze compositie van Jacob de Haan. Een compositie waarin het volk jubeltover het geluk dat hen ten deel is gevallen door de inspanningen van het ministerie!

Minist ry of Winds ist ein interessantes Gedankenspiel, das Jacob de Haan in Musik umsetzte: Was ware, wenn es ein Ministerium für Blasmusik gabe? Dessen Aufgabe ware die Forderung und Verbreitung der Musik im Staat, aber auch durch die Musik den Staat zu festigen und den Bürgern Unterhaltung, Kraft, Trost und Glück zu bringen. All diese Aspekte spiegeln sich in Jacob de Haans Komposition wider, an deren Ende das Volk über das Glück, das ihnen durch das Schaff en des Ministeriums zuteil geworden ist, jubelt!

The Ministry of Winds est une œuvre puissante et solidement charpentee. Elle alterne des passages intenses et lyriques, et un charmant theme baroque qui se glisse avec legerete a travers la texture musicale. L'œuvre contient plusieurs motifs recurrents. Peu a peu, la trame prend la forme d'une melodie pentatonique partiellement celtique. Le tableau final est eclatant.

Ministry of Winds e un brano potente che alterna passaggi intensi e lirici a un piacevole tema barocco che scivola con leggerezza attraverso la tessitura musicale. Il brano contiene alcuni motivi ricorrenti. Procedendo nell'esecuzione, la trama assume la forma di una melodia pentatonica dagli accenti celtici, fino al sorprendente finale.

Drawing its inspiration from the land down under and featuring quotations from the traditional Australian tunes Waltzing Matilda, Bound for South Australia, and Advance Australia Fair in a glorious overture-style medley, this composition salutes the spirit, diversity, and proud heritage of the people of Australia. The musical emotions alternate between the hauntingly beautiful, reverent themes and the joyous, even raucous, folk tunes building to a glorious conclusion. (3:30).
