Brass Band - Grade 4 SKU: BT.DHP-0880117-030
Composed by Jan Van der Roost. Inspiration Series. Opening Pieces. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 1988. De Haske Publications #DHP 0880117-030. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-0880117-030). This opener was written for the 10th anniversary of Brass Band Midden Brabant (BBMB), the composer’s own band. A soft and lyrical middle section follows on the powerful opening fanfare which, if the technical equipment is available, can be used as background music for a spoken text or presentation. The finale is distinctly rhythmical in character, and develops into a somewhat unusual ending. Here, the composer piles ten different notes on top of each other, representing the BBMB anniversary in a musical way. At a later date the composer made two new versions of Signature, namely for wind band and fanfare.
Signature was een van de eerste werken voor brassband van Jan Van der Roost. Het gaf hem meteen aanzien in de internationale brassbandscène en het wordt wereldwijd nog steeds veel gespeeld.
