The Egyptian pharaoh Amenhotep IV, better known as Achnaton, was the second son and successor of Amenhotep III.
He reigned the New Kingdom from 1353 until 1336 BC.
Achnatons lack of interest in the economic well-being of Egypt ushered ina revolutionary period in Egyptian history.
His harsh reign induced much suffering under the population.
During this period when it was customary for a pharaoh to have many wives, he had taken his cousin Nefertete to reign as queen at hisside.
An elegant and very beautiful woman, she used her influence to ease the turmoil caused by Achnaton.
Combined with her grace, her presence at public functions led to a greater popularity among her subjects than the pharaoh enjoyedhimself.
Being mostly preoccupied with religious questions, he declared that all the other gods did not exist. There was only one god, the Aten, and it was the sun itself.
It was now necessary to change his name: ‘Amenhotep’ meaning ‘the god Amun is satisfied’, because he didnt want to be associated with Amun or any of the other deities.
He renamed himself ‘Achnaton’ which means ‘servant of the Aten’ -- a much more appropriate title!
In the sixth year of his reignAchnaton also moved the capital to a brand new city called Achet-Aton (‘the Horizon of the Aten’) which was where Tel el-Amarna stands today. He did this to further isolate himself from the ‘old’ religion, since the previous capital Thebes was thecentre of worship of Amun.
This new religion created an up rise among the population and high priests. In spite of Nefertetes influence, the falling economy and religious conflict resulted in the decline of the Egyptian empire.
Hoping toforget it ever happened, people later tried to eradicate all traces of Achnaton and his successors rule by smashing their statues, mutilating their mummies, and ruining their relief carvings.
From that moment on he was remembered as the‘heretic king’.

This composition was partially funded by the ‘Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds’.

D e Egyptische farao Achnaton was de zoon en opvolger van Amenhotep III en besteeg de troon als Amenhotep IV.
Hij regeerde van 1353 tot 1336 voor Christus.
Achnaton was nauwelijks ge?nteresseerd in politiek en handel waardoorhet Egyptische rijk onder zijn bewind in economisch verval raakte. Hij regeerde per decreet waaronder de bevolking zwaar te leiden had.
In die tijd was het gebruikelijk dat de farao’s meerdere vrouwen hadden waarvan hij eréén tot zijn hoofdvrouw koos waarmee hij zijn rijk regeerde.
Nefertete was de uitverkorene. Een zeer mooie, elegante vrouw, die met haar invloed op het harde beleid van Achnaton nog voor enige verlichting zorgde. Dit en haar aanwezigheidbij openbare presentaties leidde ertoe dat zij bij de bevolking een veel grotere populariteit genoot dan de farao zelf.
Achnaton hield zich vooral bezig met religieuze vraagstukken. Hij brak met het idee dat er meergoden zouden bestaan. Volgens hem was er slechts één god, namelijk de zon. Deze zonnegod noemde hij Aton.
Nadat deze gedachte zich bij hem had geopenbaard veranderde hij zijn naam van Amenhotep in Achnaton, hetgeen in het Egyptisch“Aton welgevallig” betekent.
In zijn zesde regeringsjaar stichtte Achnaton de nieuwe regeringszetel “Achet-Aton”, ver van de bewoonde wereld in de woestijn.
Deze stad, het huidige Tell el-Amarna in Midden-Egypte,stond geheel in het teken van de zonnegod. Deze nieuwe godsdienst stuitte op veel weerstand bij de bevolking en de priesters. De godsdienststrijd die hierdoor ontstond gekoppeld aan het economische verval zorgde, ondanks de invloedvan Nefertete, voor de ineenstorting van het Egyptische rijk als grote mogendheid.
Na de dood van Achnaton werd de regeringszetel “Achet-Aton” gebruikt als steengroeve. Zijn naam werd verwijderd van de alle bouwwerken en herinneringszuilen.

Atonement commemorates the holiest day of the year in the Jewish faith, called Yom Kippur. On that day an individual repents for transgressions which may have occurred during the past year. Fasting and prayer are the activities which begin at sundown with the chanting of Kol Nidre and end twenty four hours later. Part of the piece quotes the beginning strains of Hatikvah, the Israeli national anthem.

It is adaptable to any solo instrument. Solo parts are included for C concert, B-flat, E-flat, and bass clef instruments.

SKU: BF.BM863-SCORE

Composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tschaikowsky. Arranged by Jos van de Braak. Baton Music instrumental series. Full score. Baton Music #BM863-SCORE. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM863-SCORE).

The 'Piano Concerto No. 1' in B-flat minor, Op. 23, is one of the most popular of Tschaikowsky's compositions and among the best known of all piano concertos. The concerto follows the traditional form of three movements. The introduction's theme is notable for its apparent formal independence from the rest of the movement. Despite its very substantial nature, this theme is only heard twice, and it never reappears at any later point in the concerto. But everyone can point this concerto by hearing only the first 4 notes of the concerto. Dutch arranger Jos van de Braak transcribed the complete concerto for piano with accompaniment of a Symphonic Band.
