When you have the good fortune to visit Red Rock country in the southwestern United States, you will all at once feel that majesty and beauty in the towering red landscape. You can trek, bike, paddle, ride horseback or drive through the canyons, past the strangely shaped rocks and over the enormous boulders. Each time you turn a corner you will be dazzled by yet another magnificent vista. The Red Rock areas in Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico formed millions of years ago when that part of North America was primarily under water. The water left behind the shells and skeletons of sea creatures that gradually turned into limestone and similar rocks. Beginning 225 million years ago, the earth's crust began to move and the seabed slowly rose. Streams entering the shallow water deposited mud and sand that turned into shale and marine sandstone. As the land continued to rise and dry out, some of the rocks oxidized (combined with oxygen) and turned red in color. Subsequently the area was covered with sands that eventually compressed into what is called Aztec sandstone. Sometimes, when iron was concentrated in the rock, the sandstone turned a bright red color. Following the introduction, the music in Red Rock Rag takes on a typical ragtime melody and rhythm. It then transitions by changing key, time signature and the structure into a swing waltz. At m. 60, it moves into a combined time signature of one measure of 3/4 time and two measures of 2/4 time with an occasional lick in the bass line. Finally, it moves back into the swing-waltz style and finishes with the original ragtime melody. Red Rock Rag is challenging stylistically and rhythmically. It would be appropriate to study both the ragtime and swing styles while working on it.

Singapura Suite was commissioned by Singapore's Ministry of Education Extracurricular Activities Branch to serve as a compulsory piece for the 1999 Singapore Youth Festival.Singapura is the original name of Singapore in Malay, the native language there. Because Singapore is one of the most important harbors in the world, this two-piece work opens with a seaman's dance. An authentic melody, Chan Mali Chan, is woven into the middle of this first part, whose ABA form becomes clear through the recapitulation of the seaman's dance in a somewhat altered form.Singapore is also a dynamic city-state alive with excitement, thus the second part begins with a fitting dance, a fastbourrée. As contrast there is a second authentic melody, Dayung Sampan, a more easygoing sailing song. This short but curious suite ends in high spirits with a recapitulation of the beginning.

‘Singapura’ is de oorspronkelijke naam van Singapore in het Maleis, de originele taal van deze stadstaat. Omdat Singapore een van de belangrijkste havens ter wereld is, opent de componist met een ‘zeemansdans’. Ook de authentiekemelodie Chan Mali Chan is te herkennen. Het dynamische aspect van Singapore wordt verbeeld in een snelle bourree, gevolgd door een contrasterend authentiek en rustig bootslied: Dayung Sampan.

Das Werk Singapura Suite wurde vom ‚Singapure’s Ministry of Education Extracurricular Activities Branch‘ (Ministerium für Erziehung, Kultur und Sport, Singapur) als eines der Pflichtstücke für das Singapur Jugendfestival“ 1999 in Auftrag gegeben.Singapura“ - das ist der malaiische Name der Bewohner Singapurs, es ist die Sprache der Eingeborenen. Weil in Singapur einer der wichtigsten Häfen der Welt ist, öffnet dieses zweiteilige Werk mit einem Seemannstanz. Eine authentische Melodie, Chan Mali Chan, wird in den Mittelteil dieses ersten Teils eingeflochten, dessen A-B-A-Form durch die Wiederholung des Seemannstanzes in einer etwas veränderten Form deutlichwird.Singapur ist auch ein dynamischer und lebendiger Stadtstaat, und deshalb beginnt der zweite Teil mit einem passenden Tanz, einer schnellen Bourrée. Als Kontrast hierzu erklingt eine zweite authentische Melodie, Dayung Sampan, ein sehr leichtes, gelassenes Matrosenlied. Diese kurze, aber kuriose Suite endet sehr ausgelassen mit einer Wiederholung des Anfangs.

Singapore, la citt del leone, è uno dei più importanti crocevia dell’Asia. Singapore mischia abilmente le culture provenienti dalla Cina, dalla Malesia, dall’India a quelle occidentali. La musica tradizionale è l’immagine delle molte etnie di questa citt -stato. I due movimenti di questa composizione si ispirano a canti tradizionali della Malesia. Il primo movimento sviluppa quattro canti tradizionali di carattere contrastante e contrastato. Il secondo movimento è basato sui canti Lenggang Kangkung e Katang Lompat, che, come d’abitudine in oriente, descrivono animali e l’ambiente in cui vivono legandoli a simbolismi, e un canto tradizionale in occasione di matrimoni. I duemovimenti di questa rapsodia non sono legati tra loro, rendendo possibile eseguirli separatamente.

The famous monolith Ayers Rock (also called Uluru) is the only true attraction in the Northern Territory of Australia. This colossal red rock lies in the middle of a desert plain. At dusk, a beautiful spectacle develops as the setting sun envelops the rock in rose-red hues. There are tourists who climb the rock, while this is a taboo according to the indigenous religion of the Aboriginals. Besides, the climb is very strenuous. A walk around the rock is also an unforgettable experience.During a journey through Australia, Henk Hogestein was inspired by this rock; he composed this robust rock number to cherish the memory of it.

De beroemde monoliet Ayers Rock (ook wel Uluru genoemd) is de enige echte trekpleister in het Noordelijk Territorium van Australië. Deze kolossale rode rots ligt midden in een woestijnvlakte. Bij het vallen van de avond ontvouwt zicheen prachtig schouwspel als de ondergaande zon het geheel in rozerode tinten hult. Henk Hogestein werd tijdens een reis door Australië ge nspireerd door deze rots, hij componeerde dit stevige rocknummer ter herinnering.

Ayers Rock ist wohl die größte Attraktion im Norden Australiens. Der riesige rote Felsbrocken ragt mitten in der Wüste auf und bietet zu Sonnenauf- und Untergang ein großartiges Schauspiel. Touristen nutzen den Berg gerne zum Klettern, für die Aborigines, die Ureinwohner Australiens ist er jedoch ein heiliger Ort und damit tabu. Henk Hogestein setzte seine persönlichen Eindrücke von diesem besonderen Ort in diese rockige Nummer für zehnstimmige variable Besetzung und Schlagzeug um.

Montagne sacrée pour les Aborigènes qui le nomment Uluru, Ayers Rock est un rocher solitaire situé au centre de l’Australie dans le Territoire du Nord. Depuis des millénaires, les Aborigènes Anangu le décorent de gravures et peintures rupestres. Au lever ou au coucher du soleil, Uluru offre des sublimes dégradés de rouge et d'oranger. Henk Hogestein nous livre ses impressions et ses sentiments sur ce site grandiose travers cette pièce fluide et colorée.

Behold, A Savior! is a portrait of a promise and a portrait of the fulfillment of that promise. Throughout this musical, Jay Rouse and Rose Aspinall skillfully weave scripture and dramatic first-hand accounts of the birth of Jesus into beloved carols and original songs. Each monologue and song will take you on a journey—from the longing of Zechariah, the joy and acceptance of Mary, and the courage of Joseph to the accounts of the shepherds and wise men. Designed with flexibility in mind, these songs and stories can be presented individually across the Advent season or in their entirety for a special event. An optional introduction and closing narration, accessible solos, and gorgeous orchestrations add to the flexibility and will make this one of the most practical collections in your library.
