This work for Tuba and Brass Band was commissioned by and written for internationally renowned tuba soloist Steve Sykes. The Tuba plays four notes (F, Bb, G, C) during the opening. All the themes and much of the harmonic structure are based on these fours notes and their permutations. The soloist receives ample opportunity to showcase his or her technical prowess and expressive capabilities. Fantasia for Tuba also provides plenty of interaction between the soloist and brass band.In de loop der eeuwen is schitterende kerstmuziek geschreven. In de dertiende eeuw ontstond March of the Three Kings. Deze melodie, die wordt toegeschreven aan een anonieme monnik, is nog altijd geliefd. In Fantasia on a13th Century Carol is de melodie verwerkt in diverse variaties en stijlen, met als hoogtepunt een symfonische mars.Dieses Werk für Tuba und Brass Band entstand im Auftrag des international renommierten Tubasolisten Steve Skyes. Zu Beginn intoniert die Tuba die vier Noten F, B G und C, auf welchen alle Themen, viele Harmonien und Permutationen basieren. Vor dem kraftvollen Schluss hat der Solist viel Gelegenheit, sein technisches Können und seine Ausdruckskraft unter Beweis zu stellen, aber auch für den Dialog mit anderen Solisten und der gesamten Brass Band ist Raum in dieser kunstvollen Fantasia.

About the Taiwan Fantasia, van Deursen states: After having lived in Taipei for a number of years, I learned many of the local folk and popular songs. Some of the melodies are exceptionally beautiful, and my idea was to somehow combine all the elements that have made up my musical experiences over these years - Chinese melodies, western orchestral music and jazz; I wanted to see if these songs could survive with a totally different harmonic structure and concept. My original goal was to write a simple arrangement of the two songs, but quickly I discovered more melodies building upon the original ones and thus the Variations were born. Composed in 1995, this work of about 10 minutes in length is in one continuous movement, but is divided into seven short sections of contrasting moods including two cadenzas, for Trumpet and Trombone. The music is appropriate for advanced performers. Parts in C and B-flat are supplied for the Trumpets. A recording of Taiwan Fantasia can be purchased on iTunes from the album by the Yeh Shu Han Brass Quintet.

The composition begins with the solo tuba stating the four notes (F, Bb, G, C) on which the entire piece is based. All other themes, and much of the harmony, are built on these four notes and their permutations. There are four main sections, with a brief cadenza before the last movement In de loop der eeuwen is schitterende kerstmuziek geschreven. In de dertiende eeuw ontstond March of the Three Kings. Deze melodie, die wordt toegeschreven aan een anonieme monnik, is nog altijd geliefd.

MARS HILL FANTASIA was commissioned by and is gratefully dedicated to Mars Hill College (now Mars Hill University), as part of the festivities celebrating their Sesquicentennial in 2006. The work was commissioned by their Low Brass instructor, and my friend, Dr. James Sparrow. The university is located right in the heart of the beautiful mountain area of Western North Carolina, and I wrote a work which both celebrates the long and distinguished history of Mars Hill University and its lovely mountain setting. The work is scored for two combined ensembles -- an 8-part low brass ensemble of trombones, euphoniums, and tubas, and an 8-part percussion ensemble of both mallet and non-pitched percussion instruments. The music contains rich, sonorous, and joyful gestures, with stentorian fanfares, resonant chords, and lyrical melodies. It was given a truly exciting and festive premiere in October 2006 by the combined low brass and percussion ensembles of the music department of Mars Hill.MARS HILL FANTASIA was commissioned by and is gratefully dedicated to Mars Hill College (now Mars Hill University), as part of the festivities celebrating their Sesquicentennial in 2006.The work was commissioned by their Low Brass instructor, and my friend, Dr. James Sparrow.
