Jacob de Haan: Suite Symétrique: Brass Band: Score & PartsThis playful three-part suite is largely based on symmetry. This of course is largely due to the relations of the arrangement of the themes; however on the other hand to the larger structures in form. The first part (Prelude et Scherzo) has a solemn opening. Followed by it a related scherzo with many changes in time this too is composed in a symmetrical form. In the second movement Choral Dorian the theme of the prelude is reversed and used in chorale in Dorian tonality. The suite comes to a close with Rondo d'Avignon. An annual theatre festival in a French city on the Rhone inspired this suite. It is a lively movement symmetrically bought to a finish with a repeat of theprelude from the first movement.
