Born in Jarrow, northeast England, in 1949, John Miles was something of a child prodigy, learning the piano from the age of five. In the early '60s he persuaded his father to buy him a guitar and by the end of the decade he had joined asemi-professional band, The Influence. The group soon disbanded and by 1969 Miles was recording with his own group, The John Miles Band, releasing a dozen singles in the early '70s. In 1975 Miles decided to move to London and secured a dealwith Decca Records. By October that year, a newly formed band, John Miles and Co, had released their debut single, Highfly, but their greatest hit, which stormed the British charts in March 1976, was Music.

In 1976 bestormde het nummer Music van de band John Miles and Co de hitparades. Music, vaak bekritiseerd als pompeus en hoogdravend in een periode die steeds meer de kant van de punk opging, was in feite typisch Britsetechnopop en daarbij een bepalende plaat voor die tijd, samen met nummers als Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. Met veel gevoel voor dynamiek en dramatiek werkt deze ode aan de muziek nog altijd aanstekelijk.

Musik war meine erste Liebe- so beginnt der Text dieses Pop-Klassikers aus den Siebzigern von John Miles, der mit dieser Zeile damit damals und heute den Nerv aller begeisterten Musiker und Musikfans der Welt traf. Leise undlaut, gefühlvoll und dramatisch, zieht diese schöne Liebeserklärung an die Musik in der Blasorchester-Bearbeitung von Philip Sparke noch immer Musiker und Zuhörer unweigerlich in ihren Bann.

Né en 1949 Jarrow dans le nord-est de l’Angleterre, John Miles est considéré comme un enfant prodige, apprenant le piano dès l’ ge de cinq ans. Au début des années 60, il persuade son père de lui acheter une guitare. En 1975, il s’installe Londres et signe un contrat avec la maison de disques Decca. En octobre de cette même année, John Miles et son nouveau groupe, le John Miles and Co., sortent leur premier single intitulé Highfly. Mais c’est avec le titre Music, leurplus grand succès, que le groupe conquit les hit-parades anglais en mars 1976.

E' con Music, il suo più grande successo, che John Miles (1949) conquista le hit-parade inglesi nel marzo 1976. Espressiva, potente e dinamica, questa canzone é un magnifico inno alla musica. L'arrangiamento di PhilipSparke é fedele alla versione originale.

Bohemian Rhapsody is undoubtedly one of the most important songs in the history of rock 'n' roll. The song defied all convention in terms of form. It has no chorus. Instead, it comprised of an introduction, ballad, guitar solo, operatic interlude, hard rock section and coda. Perhaps the most mystifying aspect of the song is the lyrics, which are commonly thought to be autobiographical, although members of the band have never fully explained them. Bring the house down with Philip Sparke's authentic arrangement!

Bohemian Rhapsody wordt vaak gezien als het belangrijkste nummer uit de geschiedenis van de rockmuziek. Naast de nooit verklaarde raadselachtige tekst, was het vooral de ongewone vorm die tot op de dag van vandaag voor het grote succeszorgde. Het nummer kent geen refrein, maar bestaat uit vijf afzonderlijke delen: inleiding, ballad, gitaarsolo, hardrock en slot. Philip Sparke is met zijn arrangement zo dicht mogelijk bij het origineel gebleven. Grotesk!

Bohemian Rhapsody wird oft als der bedeutendste Song in der Geschichte des Rock bezeichnet. Neben dem nie erklarten ratselhaften Text trug vor allem die ungewohnliche Form zum heute noch andauernden Erfolg des Liedes bei: Es hat keinen Refrain, sondern besteht aus den Abschnitten Einleitung, Ballade, Gitarrensolo, Hardrock und Schluss. Philip Sparke versuchte, in seiner Version von Bohemian Rhapsody so nahe wie moglich am Original zu bleiben.

Bohemian Rhapsody est souvent mentionne comme le titre le plus important dans l'histoire du Rock. Ecrite par Freddie Mercury, cette chanson defie toutes les normes jusque-la respectees. Elle se compose de six sections bien distinctes: introduction, ballade, solo de guitare, parties opera et hard rock ainsi qu'un finale. L'arrangement pour orchestre d'harmonie de Philip Sparke reste conforme a la version originale. Succes garanti!

In the seventies, Elvis Presley gave many concerts with an orchestra that included a large wind section. These concerts were characterised by enthusiasm and a fast tempo. Burning Love was one of the up-tempo numbers where the bass guitar player played an especially important role. Thus, this arrangement of Burning Love, written by Thijs Oud, brings a specific challenge for the musicians in the low register. The trumpets and the trombones can also play standing behind the band adding to the visual and dynamic enhancement.

Elvis Presley gab in den siebziger Jahren viele Konzerte, auf denen er sich von einem großen Orchester mit zahlreichen Bläsern begleiten ließ. Ein hohes Tempo und absolut mitreißende Begeisterung kennzeichneten diese Auftritte. Eine der beliebten schnellen Nummern war Burning Love, in dem die Bassgitarre eine wichtige Rolle spielte. So ist denn auch Thijs Ouds gelungene Bearbeitung von Burning Love eine besondere Herausforderung für das tiefe Register, während die Trompeten und Posaunen die ursprünglichen Bläserstimmen übernehmen.

Dans les années 1970, Elvis Presley s’est produit, plusieurs reprises, avec un orchestre disposant d’une grande section d’instruments vent. Caractéristiques de ces concerts : un débordement d’enthousiasme et une énergie intense. Burning Love est l’une de ces chansons au rythme enlevé où la guitare basse joue un rôle particulièrement important. Cet arrangement de Thijs Oud ne laissera personne de marbre.

Negli anni 1970, Elvis Presley si esibì a più riprese con un’orchestra avente a disposizione una grande sezione di strumenti a fiato. Questi concerti furono caratterizzati da un enorme entusiasmo e coinvolgimento del pubblico. Burning Love è una di queste canzoni dal ritmo molto elevato dove il basso riveste un ruolo particolarmente importante.
