Par VAN DER ROOST JAN. This three-movement symphony musically depicts the history of Hungary. Key historical figures, wars and other important events from this country inspired all three movements. The first movement depicts Atilla, the King of the Huns, and is characterised by fear, threat and aggression. The second movement focuses on Árpád, the founder of the Hungarian State and the final movement is named after István, the King who introduced Christianity into Hungary. The beautiful theme of the national hymn appears throughout the symphony, however it is often partially hidden. It is used as a “thread, ” hardly recognizable at the beginning, becoming more and more obvious near the end and itconcludes the symphony as the “final apotheosis, ” making the band sound like a majestic living organ. / Niveau : Très Difficile / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band

Sing, Choirs! is a library in miniature. It contains many of the Christian church's popular traditional anthems, including at least one example that will be suitable for each of the major services of the year. A number of Anglican chants (Psalms, Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis) are included, set out in a way that should enable those who are unfamiliar with the style to perform them easily. The selection of movements from the Mass can be used to enrich the music of the liturgy in services. Many of the works in Sing, Choirs! are presented in their original form, such as Bruckner's Locus Iste and Mozart's Laudate Dominum . Others are arrangements, adaptations or longer pieces, abridged to bring them into the scope of a useable anthem, including choral arrangements of Handel's Largo , the Ave Marias by Schubert and by Bach and Gounod, and Franck's Panis Angelicus amongst many others. This collection has practicability as a priority. The Organ parts can be played on either the Piano or the Keyboard. Much of the music in Sing, Choirs! will be suitable for special occasions, making this an indispensable volume for choirs singing at weekly church services, weddings, funerals and in the concert hall. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

In the second half of the 18th century, the forteiano emerged as the popular Keyboard instrument and the demand for books of instruction arose. The Introduction To The Piano created by Johann Christian Bach and Francesco Pasquale Ricci was one of the earliest. It focused on a sense of style rather than technical expertise. 'Without taste one may do great things, but only taste makes them interesting,' the authors write.J C Bach was the youngest son of J S Bach and received his earliest musical education from his father and from C P E Bach, making this Piano method book the work of a musician who was taught by Bach himself. Most of the exercises come from J C Bach's pen and they are a microcosm of musical styles of the era. The book includes, among other things, discussion of tone or tonality, mode, key, measure 'and its different species', accidentals, forms of composition, regulated practice and more. / Piano
