Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo is an emerging star in the realm of choral works, and also with music for wind band. Similar to his earlier band works Meridian and The Spheres, Serenity is based on a successful choral work. Beautifully arranged by J. Eric Wilson along with the composer, this version for wind band maintains all the wonder and magic of the original work. The opening is ethereal and so…

Piano Solo Album. Par HEUMANN HANS-GUNTER. Hans-Günter Heumanns Notenalben sind von unseren Klavierpulten nicht mehr wegzudenken. Längst gehören seine Klaviermethoden und Spielbände zum Standardkanon heutiger Unterrichtsliteratur. Gestrandet zwischen Hanon-Etüden, Scarlatti-Sonaten und zweistimmigen Inventionen haben Heumanns Arrangements schon so manchen Hobby-Pianisten vor dem „Hinschmeißen“ bew…

Par SPARKE PHILIP. The birth of Philip Sparke’s second son, Benjamin, was the inspiration for composing Ballad for Benny. A short calm introduction leads to the main ballad theme, a gentle waltz melody. Following the work’s climax in which the complete band plays the main theme the sound fades and the piece ends in calm and serenity. / Niveau : 2.5 / Musique pour célébration / Répertoire / Bras…

Par VAN DER ROOST JAN. In this colourful composition, Jan van der Roost recreates the energetic and multi-racial city life in Manhattan, using four contrasting movements. The opening movement is rather short and rhytmical. In the second “Picture”, a variety of musical entities accumulate into a coloured “sound curtain”, on top of which the brass section presents a broad theme. In contrast to the t…

Elegy For Band. Par SPARKE PHILIP. The initial idea was for a millennium piece, which it is, but rather than add to the many celebratory pieces that have understandably been written to salute the 3rd millennium, Philip Sparke thought it would perhaps be appropriate to think about the aspects of life that are constantly with us (such as faith and philosophy) rather than the exciting changes that th…

The three movements of North Dakota: The Peace Garden State capture the spirit of this northern state. In 'The Meandering Missouri,' an atmospheric piece in Dorian mode and 3/4 meter, the Missouri River is depicted by a gentle accompaniment and lingering melody, making the piece reminiscent of a 'Gymnopédie.' A contrasting middle section with unexpected harmonies and parallel-moving triads brings …

Par BAIGENT BERTIE. The composer was drawn to the beautiful stillness and sadness of the poem by Christina Rossetti, which transcends its rigid sonnet structure, and allude via the epigraph to the mysterious Willow-Wood cycle by Christina's brother Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The music suggests a division of the poem into three stanzas, alternating with tranquil interludes (using the opening melody) r…
