Par DE HAAN JACOB. This composition is based on a passacaglia theme, in which artistic perfection, symphonic drama and oriental melody lines play a role. The passacaglia is originally a dance made up of a series of variations above a bass line constantly present as an ostinato. It is not in this sense that the 'Symphonic Variations' are in the passacaglia form but in the sense of the open form of …

Symphonic Variations

/ Piano Et Orchestre

Cette ?uvre dédiée à Fritz Neukomm a été créée lors du MidEurope Festival en 2004 par la Schweizer Armee Spiel. Le thème de base est basé sur une série d?accords qui se suivent de manière archa?que. Les variations qui s?ensuivent ne sont donc pas des variations musicales sur ce thème mais forment par un choix d?instrumentation particulier une ligne séparée parallèle aux variations en soi. Cett…

When asked by David Starobin to write a concerto for him I though 'well why not have a go at …

Through variations in tempo and tone the Symphonic Variants bring forth the sonority of the euphonium and the skills of the soloist. The work begins with an allegro con espressivo statement of the theme and alternates with adagio and allegro con spirito variations. Lento presto and pesante treatments add further interest to the composition.

Par PIERNE. This quartet for Saxophones, entitled Introduction Et Variations Sur Une Ronde Populaire by Gabriel Pierne, is a standard in the Saxophone quartet repertoire. Composed in 1934 and dedicated to the Marcel Mule Quartet, this piece for advanced players is as bright and cheerful as a round dance should be, and yet, quite delicate and light in terms of writing. With many ornaments and varia…
