Paul Dukas (1865-1935) was a composer who had little self-confidence and was very self-critical. As a result of this he destroyed the manuscripts of all but seven large and five small works. Luckily kept what is now his best know composition, the symphonic scherzo L’apprenti sorcier (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice). He also came very close to destroying the manuscript of his ballet music La Peri (The Fairy). This was however rescued by his friends. Thus we can still enjoy this magnificent fanfare which was originally used as an opener for the ballet. This magnificent transcription for fanfare band will make a great opening item for any concert.In Paul Dukas’ ballet La Péri (De fee) is in stilistisch opzicht zijn bewondering voor Wagner (de romantiek) en het Franse impressionisme merkbaar: een interessante en unieke mix, want deze twee stijlen werden maar weinig gecombineerd.De populaire fanfare die voorafgaat aan La Péri is van oorsprong alleen voor koperblazers geschreven en pas naderhand aan het werk toegevoegd. Het gebruikte idioom is moderner dan dat in het ballet zelf. Deze schitterendefanfare wordt vaak afzonderlijk uitgevoerd en is geschikt als openingswerk voor diverse gelegenheden.In den Werken des französischen Komponisten Paul Dukas (1865-1935) ist stilistisch die Bewunderung für Wagner sowie für den französischen Impressionismus spürbar, woraus sich ein interessanter, seltener Stilmix ergibt. Das Ballett La Péri enthält immense dynamische Abstufungen und fordert die Musiker dementsprechend stark. Die populäre Fanfare, welche dem Werk vorangeht, eignet sich in der gelungenen Blasorchesterbearbeitung von Wil van der Beek als Eröffnungswerk für viele Anlässe.

The Wildcat Creek in central Indiana forms a valley connecting all schools in the Howard County area for whom this piece was written. Opening with the percussion section in a stately style, the main theme is first heard in a chorale-like setting. Designed as an extended fanfare, the piece quickly builds in intensity with each subsequent phrase, and culminates in a fast-paced and brilliant sounding ending flourish. Effective as a concert opener. Dur: 3:15.
