You'll feel the wind at your back as this bright march weighs anchor with a bold opening and sets sail with flutes and oboes stating the main theme. Sails unfurl and the rest of the fleet (ensemble) joins in. Counter-lines and flourishes are added. Eventually the seas calm during a passage through a slower lyrical section where the opening thematic material is developed. But wait, there is land in sight! A new key is stated, and all return safely to port.

The Netherlands have been an important trading nation for a long time partly as a result of their geographical situation.
One of the first multinationals in The Netherlands was the ‘Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie’ (VOC).
The aim of the VOC was to send ships to Asia in order to buy pepper and spices, and to take over the Portuguese monopoly in this field. The Company was successful. An era of great prosperity resulted, in which the art of painting (Rembrandt van Rijn) as well as science (Constantijn Huygens) flourished alongside a thriving economy.

1. The Sails are set : There is a lot of hustle and bustle on the quay. The crew are preparing fordeparture. Goodbyes are said and once the sails have been hoisted the ship sets out to sea.

2. A Visit to the Rajah of Yogyakarta: After a voyage of many months the place of destination is reached. A visit to the Radja, the king of the area around Yokyakarta, follows. The dishes and beverages and the native culture in general are very pleasant after having been on a diet of ship’s biscuit and water for such a long time.

3. The Holds have been loaded: The holds have been loaded to the brim, and the voyage home can be begin!

4. Death sails along: Life at sea is rough. not seldom did a sailor die of a tropical disease or scurvy. After a memorial service, the Captain would speak the words ‘One, two, three, in God’s name ...’ and the body, wrapped in canvas, would be committed to the sea.

5. A joyful homecoming: After many months of hardship coming home is perhaps the best part of the entire voyage. The quay is filled with people eager to give the crew a warm welcome.

1. The Sails are set: Aan de kade is het een drukte van belang. De bemanning maakt het schip klaar voor vertrek. Er wordt afscheid genomen en als de zeilen gehesenzijn zetten we koers naar volle zee.

2. A Visit to the Rajah of Yogyakarta: Na een maandenlange reis wordt de bestemming bereikt. Er volgt een bezoek aan de Radja, de koning van de streek rond Yokyakarta. De spijzen, drankenen de inheemse cultuur zijn zeer aangenaam na maanden scheepsbeschuit en water.

3. The Holds have been loaded: De laadruimtes zijn volgestouwd. De thuisreis kan beginnen.

4. Death sails along: Het leven op zeeis hard. Niet zelden vond een zeeman de dood door een tropische ziekte of scheurbuik. Na een herdenkingsdienst sprak de kapitein de woorden: ‘Eén, twee, drie in Godsnaam .....’, waarna het in zeildoek gewikkelde lichaam aan de golvenwerd toevertrouwd.

5. A joyful homecoming: Na maanden van ontberingen is het thuiskomen misschien wel het mooiste van de hele reis. De kade staat weer vol om de bemanning een warm onthaal te geven.

For most of my life, I never knew where my father’s family came from, beyond a few broad strokes: they had emigrated in the early 1900s from Eastern Europe and altered the family name along the way. This radically changed in the summer of 2021 when my mother and sister came across a folder in our family filing cabinet and made an astounding discovery of documents that revealed when, where, and how my great-grandfather came to America. The information I had been seeking was at home all along, waiting over forty years to be discovered.Berko Gorobzoff, my great-grandfather, left Ekaterinoslav in 1904. At that time, this city was in the southern Russian area of modern-day Ukraine; as his family was Jewish, he and his siblings were attempting to escape the ongoing religious persecution and pogroms instigated by Tzar Nicholas II to root out Jewish people from Russia. Berko’s older brother Jakob had already emigrated to Illinois, and Berko was traveling with Chaje, Jakob’s wife, to join him. Their timing was fortuitous, as the following year saw a series of massive, brutal pogroms in the region. After arriving in Illinois, Berko went on to Omaha, Nebraska, where he married my great-grandmother Anna about eighteen months later. They remained in Omaha for the rest of their lives.There is one more intriguing part to this historical account: I have a great-aunt in Texas who, as it turns out, is the youngest daughter of Berko and Anna. Through a series of phone calls, my great-aunt and I discussed what she could remember: her parents spoke Yiddish at home, her mother didn’t learn to read or write in English so my great-aunt was tasked with writing letters to family members, Berko ran a grocery store followed by a small hotel, and her parents enjoyed playing poker with friends. Above all else, neither of her parents ever spoke a word about their past or how they got to America. This was a common trait among Eastern European Jewish immigrants whose goal was to “blend in” within their new communities and country.To craft Berko’s Journey, I melded the facts I uncovered about Berko with my own research into methods of transportation in the early 1900s. Also, to represent his heritage, I wove two Yiddish songs and one Klezmer tune into the work. In movement 1, Leaving Ekaterinoslav, we hear Berko packing his belongings, saying his goodbyes to family and friends, and walking to the train station. Included in this movement is a snippet of the Yiddish song “The Miller’s Tears” which references how the Jews were driven out of their villages by the Russian army. In movement 2, In Transit, we follow Berko as he boards a train and then a steamship, sails across the Atlantic Ocean, arrives at Ellis Island and anxiously waits in line for immigration, jubilantly steps foot into New York City, and finally boards a train that will take him to Chicago. While he’s on the steamship, we hear a group of fellow steerage musicians play a klezmer tune (“Freylachs in d minor”). In movement 3, At Home in Omaha, we hear Berko court and marry Anna. Their courtship is represented by “Tumbalalaika,” a Yiddish puzzle folksong in which a man asks a woman a series of riddles in order to get better acquainted with each other and to test her intellect.On a final note, I crafted a musical motive to represent Berko throughout the piece. This motive is heard at the beginning of the first movement; its first pitches are B and E, which represent the first two letters of Berko’s name. I scatter this theme throughout the piece as Berko travels towards a new world and life. As the piece concludes, we hear Berko’s theme repeatedly and in close succession, representing the descendants of the Garrop line that came from Berko and Anna.

The United East India Company, or Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) was one of the first international trading companies in the Netherlands. Voyage With The VOC follows the route of a ship (first movement) on a visit to the Rajah of Yogakarta (second movement) to load up the ship before returning home (third movement). The fourth movement describes the hard life of a sailor before the fifth movement sees the ship safely to harbour once again.

Mede door de geografische ligging is Nederland sinds jaar en dag een belangrijke handelsnatie. Eén van de eerste multinationals was de ‘Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie’ (VOC). Het doel van de VOC was schepen naar Azië te sturen ompeper en specerijen te kopen en het Portugese monopolie over te nemen. De VOC werd een succes. De Gouden Eeuw brak aan en het was een tijd van grote welvaart. Naast een bloeiende economie floreerden ook de schilderkunst (Rembrandtvan Rijn) en de wetenschap (Constantijn Huygens).Inhoud: The Sails are set, A Visit to the Rajah of Yogyakarta, The Holds have been loaded, Death sails along en A joyful homecoming.

Di e Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) war eine der ersten internationalen Handelsgesellschaften der Niederlande. Voyage with the VOC verfolgt ein Schiff vom Ablegen an (1. Satz) auf eine seiner Reisen. Nach einem Besuch beim Rajah von Yogakarta (2. Satz) wird das Schiff beladen und die Heimreise angetreten (3. Satz). Der vierte Satz beschreibt das harte Leben auf See, das Risiken wie Schiffsbruch, Krankheiten und Tod in sich barg, bevor im fünften Satz das Schiff schließlich glücklich heimkehrt.

La société Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC), a été l’une des premières agences de négoce international des Pays-Bas. Voyage with the VOC décrit les péripéties d’un navire en partance pour l’Asie dans une oeuvre en 5 mouvements : les voiles sont hissées et il y beaucoup d’animation sur le quai - le voyage aura duré de nombreuses semaines, enfin, le lieu de destination est atteint - une visite au Rajah de Yogyakarta s’impose - les cales sont remplies d’épices, le voyage de retour peut être amorcé - mort sous les voiles, un marin est décédé - après plusieurs mois d’absence, le retour quai est chaleureux et festif !

La compagnia delle Indie Occidentali (Vereenigde Oostindische Companie/VOC in olandese) fu una delle prime societ di commercio dell’Olanda. Voyage with the VOC segue una nave nel suo viaggio (primo movimento). Dopo una visita al rajah di Yogakarta (secondo movimento), la nave viene caricata ed ha inizio il viaggio di ritorno (terzo movimento).

For most of my life, I never knew where my father’s family came from, beyond a few broad strokes: they had emigrated in the early 1900s from Eastern Europe and altered the family name along the way. This radically changed in the summer of 2021 when my mother and sister came across a folder in our family filing cabinet and made an astounding discovery of documents that revealed when, where, and how my great-grandfather came to America. The information I had been seeking was at home all along, waiting over forty years to be discovered.Berko Gorobzoff, my great-grandfather, left Ekaterinoslav in 1904. At that time, this city was in the southern Russian area of modern-day Ukraine; as his family was Jewish, he and his siblings were attempting to escape the ongoing religious persecution and pogroms instigated by Tzar Nicholas II to root out Jewish people from Russia. Berko’s older brother Jakob had already emigrated to Illinois, and Berko was traveling with Chaje, Jakob’s wife, to join him. Their timing was fortuitous, as the following year saw a series of massive, brutal pogroms in the region. After arriving in Illinois, Berko went on to Omaha, Nebraska, where he married my great-grandmother Anna about eighteen months later. They remained in Omaha for the rest of their lives.There is one more intriguing part to this historical account: I have a great-aunt in Texas who, as it turns out, is the youngest daughter of Berko and Anna. Through a series of phone calls, my great-aunt and I discussed what she could remember: her parents spoke Yiddish at home, her mother didn’t learn to read or write in English so my great-aunt was tasked with writing letters to family members, Berko ran a grocery store followed by a small hotel, and her parents enjoyed playing poker with friends. Above all else, neither of her parents ever spoke a word about their past or how they got to America. This was a common trait among Eastern European Jewish immigrants whose goal was to “blend in” within their new communities and country.To craft Berko’s Journey, I melded the facts I uncovered about Berko with my own research into methods of transportation in the early 1900s. Also, to represent his heritage, I wove two Yiddish songs and one Klezmer tune into the work. In movement 1, Leaving Ekaterinoslav, we hear Berko packing his belongings, saying his goodbyes to family and friends, and walking to the train station. Included in this movement is a snippet of the Yiddish song “The Miller’s Tears” which references how the Jews were driven out of their villages by the Russian army. In movement 2, In Transit, we follow Berko as he boards a train and then a steamship, sails across the Atlantic Ocean, arrives at Ellis Island and anxiously waits in line for immigration, jubilantly steps foot into New York City, and finally boards a train that will take him to Chicago. While he’s on the steamship, we hear a group of fellow steerage musicians play a klezmer tune (“Freylachs in d minor”). In movement 3, At Home in Omaha, we hear Berko court and marry Anna. Their courtship is represented by “Tumbalalaika,” a Yiddish puzzle folksong in which a man asks a woman a series of riddles in order to get better acquainted with each other and to test her intellect.On a final note, I crafted a musical motive to represent Berko throughout the piece. This motive is heard at the beginning of the first movement; its first pitches are B and E, which represent the first two letters of Berko’s name. I scatter this theme throughout the piece as Berko travels towards a new world and life. As the piece concludes, we hear Berko’s theme repeatedly and in close succession, representing the descendants of the Garrop line that came from Berko and Anna.

The United East India Company, or Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) was one of the first international trading companies in the Netherlands. Voyage With The VOC follows the route of a ship (first movement) on a visit to the Rajah of Yogakarta (second movement) to load up the ship before returning home (third movement). The fourth movement describes the hard life of a sailor before the fifth movement sees the ship safely to harbour once again.

Mede door de geografische ligging is Nederland sinds jaar en dag een belangrijke handelsnatie. Eén van de eerste multinationals was de ‘Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie’ (VOC). Het doel van de VOC was schepen naar Azië te sturen ompeper en specerijen te kopen en het Portugese monopolie over te nemen. De VOC werd een succes. De Gouden Eeuw brak aan en het was een tijd van grote welvaart. Naast een bloeiende economie floreerden ook de schilderkunst (Rembrandtvan Rijn) en de wetenschap (Constantijn Huygens).Inhoud: The Sails are set, A Visit to the Rajah of Yogyakarta, The Holds have been loaded, Death sails along en A joyful homecoming.

Die Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) war eine der ersten internationalen Handelsgesellschaften der Niederlande. Voyage with the VOC verfolgt ein Schiff vom Ablegen an (1. Satz) auf eine seiner Reisen. Nach einem Besuch beim Rajah von Yogakarta (2. Satz) wird das Schiff beladen und die Heimreise angetreten (3. Satz). Der vierte Satz beschreibt das harte Leben auf See, das Risiken wie Schiffsbruch, Krankheiten und Tod in sich barg, bevor im fünften Satz das Schiff schließlich glücklich heimkehrt.

La société Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC), a été l’une des premières agences de négoce international des Pays-Bas. Voyage with the VOC décrit les péripéties d’un navire en partance pour l’Asie dans une oeuvre en 5 mouvements : les voiles sont hissées et il y beaucoup d’animation sur le quai - le voyage aura duré de nombreuses semaines, enfin, le lieu de destination est atteint - une visite au Rajah de Yogyakarta s’impose - les cales sont remplies d’épices, le voyage de retour peut être amorcé - mort sous les voiles, un marin est décédé - après plusieurs mois d’absence, le retour quai est chaleureux et festif !

La compagnia delle Indie Occidentali (Vereenigde Oostindische Companie/VOC in olandese) fu una delle prime societ di commercio dell’Olanda. Voyage with the VOC segue una nave nel suo viaggio (primo movimento). Dopo una visita al rajah di Yogakarta (secondo movimento), la nave viene caricata ed ha inizio il viaggio di ritorno (terzo movimento). Il quarto movimento descrive la dura vita in alto mare, i rischi di avaria, di malattie e addirittura di morte prima di attraccare. Il quinto movimento descrive la nave che arriva felicemente a destinazione.
