9790365073962. Nico
Schoeters took his first
percussion lessons with
Eric Buyle in the Academy
for Music and Word in
Boom, near Antwerp, after
getting the hang of it
through private lessons
by Jozef Vervliet.
Afterwards he continued
his music studies at the
Royal Conservatory of
Antwerp, where he was
taught by Leo Ouderits,
Carlo Willems and Koen
Wilmaers. In 1998 he
graduated there with
great distinction as
Master in percussion.
After cooperating on
various projects in
Belgium and abroad as a
freelance percussionist,
Nico took up a position
as a percussionist in the
National Orchestra of
Belgium. However, despite
of all his achievements
as a percussionist, Nico
Schoeters didn’t take
his first musical steps
by playing percussion,
but by playing the piano.
His love for the piano
remained a common thread
in his musical career.
For example, he played
numerous gigs as a
pianist with his jazz
quartet ‘Just Friends,
consisting of a number of
top musicians who are his
friends. In addition he
started composing piano
works in 2012.
Cosmopolydian is my first
composition for symphonic
windband. It's a solo
piece for flute and
vibraphone which is
dedicated to Inge Smedts,
principal piccolo at the
Royal Wind Band of the
Belgian Guides. It is
written in the context of
a musical project
‘Cocktail Maison'. This
project includes a
concert on May 25th, 2017
in De Singel in Antwerp
where this work will be
premiered, a CD recording
and a concert tour. All
the pieces for this
project are new
compositions by Piet
Swerts, Jef Neve, Klaas
Coulembier, Etienne
Houben, Bart Watté, Jan
Huylebroeck, Francois
Glorieux and myself. All
the compositions are
inspired by a cocktail.
My choice is the
Cosmopolitan, but the
non-alcoholic version,
the mocktail actually.
The title Cosmopolydian
is a nod to the lydian
scale which I used as a
base for the majority of
the piece. The idea
behind the music is an
image of children
enjoying themselves,
worry-free, during the
holidays. Tired but
satisfied, they go to
sleep and have wonderful
dreams. The next day they
wake up to start a
beautiful new day. The
work is constructed in a
typical ABA form. A quick
first part: ‘sparkling
allegro', which of course
should sound very light
and playful. A slow
middle part warm adagio,
in which the beautiful
dreams become audible.
The last part is a
re-exposition of the
first part in which
eventually all the themes
merge into the final. $22.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Bells Wrung is
characterised primarily
through its recurring 'A'
pedal, imitative of a
tolling belling. Similar
to other pedal-orientated
pieces in the Piano
repetoire - Ravel's Le
Gibet, or Chopin's
Raindrop Prelude for
example - this pervasive
tone serves to mediate
and unify the often
dense, chromatic harmonic
language, all the while
providing an obvious
audible continuity. The
pun in the title refers
to how the constantly
fluctuating rhythms and
metre seem to compress,
stretch, or wring the
musical material. Bells
Wrung was awarded the
Henfrey Prize for
Composition and was
workshopped and performed
on the 19th June 2017 at
St Catherine's College,
Oxford, by Dominic
Saunders. Duration: c.

inches. A stunning
and heart-wrenching
composition based on the
Jewish folk son Shlof,
Mayn Kind. You can hear
the emotional content
pour out of this piece
written in memory of an
outstanding orchestra
director. The piece
beginnings with original
material to set the tone,
followed by a violin solo
on the song. It them
develops through a
variety of different
harmonic presentation
before building to a nice
key change and climatic
moment. The piece ends as
it began, but with a more
hopeful tone. An amazing
piece. Sleep, My Child
was commissioned by the
Madison Middle School
Band and Orchestra in
Tampa, Florida, and is
dedicated to the memory
of their Director of
Orchestras Kevin Frye.
Director of Bands Chris
Shultz championed the
commissioning of this
piece to honor Kevin
after he passed away in
December 2016. Mr. Frye
was a beloved member of
the staff at Madison
Middle as well as the
music community of Tampa
and the state of
Florida. I was a
personal friend of
Kevin’s. We were in
several musical groups
together when we were
young that were formative
to both of our musical
careers. I also
guest-conducted his
Madison Middle School
Orchestra several times
over the past four years.
His musicianship,
teaching skills and love
for his students were
exemplary.When taking on
the challenge of writing
a piece to honor
Kevin’s legacy, Mr.
Shultz and I decided to
try and include several
important aspects of
Kevin’s life into the
piece. Kevin was proudly
Jewish, a fantastic
trumpet player and loved
Jazz. With that in mind,
and after a lot of
research, a Jewish folk
song Shlof, Mayn Kind was
selected as the basis for
the piece, not to be
religious, but to honor
his faith and heritage.
Plus it is a beautiful
song and I felt the title
reflected the sentiment I
was looking to express,
which is of someone
taking rest after a long
battle with illness, so a
lullaby seemed
appropriate.I also wanted
to incorporate Jazz into
the piece, but in a
concert setting, so you
will hear as the piece
develops, the harmonies
of the folk song expand
into ones found more
commonly in Jazz
compositions. Not in a
far out way, but in a
subtle way to again honor
this part of his life.
For example the climactic
moment of the piece at
the fermata in m. 57 is a
Dbmaj9#11 chord. It
appropriately give the
piece the angst that I
was looking for at this
moment in the piece,
while honoring the
importance of Jazz in
Kevin’s musical
life.The piece was also
conceived to include both
the Madison band and
orchestra in the
performance at the
premiere. I wanted the
pieces to work separately
by the band and
separately by the
orchestra, but I also
wanted them to be able to
play the piece together
to honor Kevin.The piece
begins with original
material designed to set
the mood of the piece
with a tempo/style
marking of pensive, but
also as material that I
used as connective
musical tissue between
statements of the folk
song. After this
introduction, the folk
song is presented by a
solo violin (or clarinet)
with orchestral
accompaniment in a simple
straight forward
presentation of the song.
This is followed by a
woodwind section
statement of the folk
song accompanied by muted
trumpets. During this
presentation the harmony
starts to expand with
more color notes in the
chords. The low brass are
added half way through
this statement to add
depth and lushness.The
introductory material
returns, but with some
angry hits in the lower
voices. This leads to a
full ensemble state of
new material that is used
to transition to the
climax of the piece, and
to build tension. After
the build, the piece
modulates to a shortened
statement of the folk
song with more advanced
harmonies and an active
counter line in the
violas, horns, saxes and
first clarinets to
further build the
tension. This tension
is released at the
fermata in m. 57 as
mentioned above. After a
thoughtful pause, the
piece concludes with a
completion of the folk
song again with a solo
violin (or clarinet)
followed by a return of
the introductory material
to tie the piece
together. The piece ends
hopeful, with a solo
trumpet (Kevin’s
instrument) that is
dissonant at first, but
then resolves as if to
say, Everything will be
OK! It has been my
distinct honor to have
been asked to write this
piece in Kevin’s
memory! I hope that in
some small way the piece
helps to bring comfort to
his family, students,
colleagues and to all
those that knew
him!–Larry

premiere. I wanted the
pieces to work separately
by the band and
separately by the
orchestra, but I also
wanted them to be able to
play the piece together
to honor Kevin.The piece
begins with original
material designed to set
the mood of the piece
with a tempo/style
marking of pensive, but
also as material that I
used as connective
musical tissue between
statements of the folk
song. After this
introduction, the folk
song is presented by a
solo violin (or clarinet)
with orchestral
accompaniment in a simple
straight forward
presentation of the song.
This is followed by a
woodwind section
statement of the folk
song accompanied by muted
trumpets. During this
presentation the harmony
starts to expand with
more color notes in the
chords. The low brass are
added half way through
this statement to add
depth and lushness.The
introductory material
returns, but with some
angry hits in the lower
voices. This leads to a
full ensemble state of
new material that is used
to transition to the
climax of the piece, and
to build tension. After
the build, the piece
modulates to a shortened
statement of the folk
song with more advanced
harmonies and an active
counter line in the
violas, horns, saxes and
first clarinets to
further build the
tension. This tension
is released at the
fermata in m. 57 as
mentioned above. After a
thoughtful pause, the
piece concludes with a
completion of the folk
song again with a solo
violin (or clarinet)
followed by a return of
the introductory material
to tie the piece
together. The piece ends
hopeful, with a solo
trumpet (Kevin’s
instrument) that is
dissonant at first, but
then resolves as if to
say, Everything will be
OK! It has been my
distinct honor to have
been asked to write this
piece in Kevin’s
memory! I hope that in
some small way the piece
helps to bring comfort to
his family, students,
colleagues and to all
those that knew
him!–Larry

Schoeters took his first
percussion lessons with
Eric Buyle in the Academy
for Music and Word in
Boom, near Antwerp, after
getting the hang of it
through private lessons
by Jozef Vervliet.
Afterwards he continued
his music studies at the
Royal Conservatory of
Antwerp, where he was
taught by Leo Ouderits,
Carlo Willems and Koen
Wilmaers. In 1998 he
graduated there with
great distinction as
Master in percussion.
After cooperating on
various projects in
Belgium and abroad as a
freelance percussionist,
Nico took up a position
as a percussionist in the
National Orchestra of
Belgium. However, despite
of all his achievements
as a percussionist, Nico
Schoeters didn’t take
his first musical steps
by playing percussion,
but by playing the piano.
His love for the piano
remained a common thread
in his musical career.
For example, he played
numerous gigs as a
pianist with his jazz
quartet ‘Just Friends,
consisting of a number of
top musicians who are his
friends. In addition he
started composing piano
works in 2012.
Cosmopolydian is my first
composition for symphonic
windband. It's a solo
piece for flute and
vibraphone which is
dedicated to Inge Smedts,
principal piccolo at the
Royal Wind Band of the
Belgian Guides. It is
written in the context of
a musical project
‘Cocktail Maison'. This
project includes a
concert on May 25th, 2017
in De Singel in Antwerp
where this work will be
premiered, a CD recording
and a concert tour. All
the pieces for this
project are new
compositions by Piet
Swerts, Jef Neve, Klaas
Coulembier, Etienne
Houben, Bart Watté, Jan
Huylebroeck, Francois
Glorieux and myself. All
the compositions are
inspired by a cocktail.
My choice is the
Cosmopolitan, but the
non-alcoholic version,
the mocktail actually.
The title Cosmopolydian
is a nod to the lydian
scale which I used as a
base for the majority of
the piece. The idea
behind the music is an
image of children
enjoying themselves,
worry-free, during the
holidays. Tired but
satisfied, they go to
sleep and have wonderful
dreams. The next day they
wake up to start a
beautiful new day.The
work is constructed in a
typical ABA form. A quick
first part: ‘sparkling
allegro', which of course
should sound very light
and playful. A slow
middle part warm adagio,
in which the beautiful
dreams become audible.
The last part is a
re-exposition of the
first part in which
eventually all the themes
merge into the final. $134.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |
