Diese Suite in c-Moll zollt einem berühmten klassischen Blaserwerk Tribut - der Ersten Suite in Es-Dur von Gustav Holst von 1909 - und erscheint zu deren 100-jahrigem Jubilaum. Die viersatzige Suite erinnert an die Stilistik von Holst, enthalt aber auch charakteristische Klangidiome sowie Strukturmerkmale von Jacob de Haan. Eine erfrischende originale Komposition, inspiriert von einem durchaus nicht angestaubten Klassiker. En 1909, Gustav Holst composa une œuvre audacieuse et novatrice, la Premiere Suite en Mib Majeur, op. 28 ndeg1 (First Suite in Eb major, Op. 28, No. 1), une suite exclusivement ecrite pour instruments a vent. A l'occasion du centenaire de cette piece, devenue un classique du repertoire pour Orchestre d'Harmonie, Jacob de Haan a compose la Memorial Suite en Ut mineur. Cette composition en quatre mouvements fait reference aux qualites stylistiques de l'œuvre de Holst, tout en s'appuyant sur le langage sonore et l'ecriture caracteristiques du style de Jacob de Haan. Le resultat est original.Comme Gustav Holst, Jacob de Haan a choisi d'ouvrir sasuite avec une chaconne, une forme de variation contrapuntique (a l'origine une danse espagnole a trois temps) dans laquelle un theme revient de facon recurrente accompagne a chaque fois par un nouveau contre-chant. Ce theme ostinato est utilise de differentes manieres tout au long des quatre mouvements, assurant ainsi l'unite de l'œuvre. Le second mouvement est un scherzo. Par sa progression et son caractere, il s'apparente a l'intermezzo central de la suite de Holst. Le troisieme mouvement, Song Without Words (Chanson sans paroles), porte le meme titre que le second mouvement de la Deuxieme Suite en Fa, op. 28 ndeg 2 (Second Suite in F, Op. 28, No. 1) composee par Holst en 1911. A mi-chemin de ce mouvement tres expressif apparait un solo de saxophone alto. Jacob de Haan conclut son œuvre par une Marche comme le fit jadis Gustav Holst.

A flashback is an interesting psychological phenomenon: a seemingly random trigger can bring back long-forgotten memories from the subconscious mind. The composer underwent a similar experience before writing this piece. He was asked to write a piece for The National Youth Fanfare Band in the Netherlands, one which he heard perform many years ago. All of a sudden he remembered Deep Harmony, a piece frequently programmed back then. He used his own flashback-experience as an inspiration to weave an old English hymn into his new composition, much like a musical flashback. The right idea at the right moment, as this piece will prove!Een flashback is een psychologisch fenomeen: een hedendaagse belevenis roept zomaar uit het niets herinneringen uit het verleden op. Zo verging het ook Jan de Haan, toen hij een muziekstuk voor het Nationaal Jeugd Fanfare Orkest inopdracht kreeg. Het is het orkest waarin hij zelf ooit speelde. Plotseling viel hem het werk Deep Harmony in, een werk dat hij destijds vaak had gespeeld. Zijn flashback op dit Engelse kerklied nam hij als inspiratiebronen hij verwerkte het in dit nieuwe muziekstuk. De juiste inval op het juiste moment, zoals nu iedereen kan horen!Ein Flashback ist ein psychologisches Phanomen: Eine Erfahrung weckt scheinbar aus dem Nichts die Erinnerung an lang Zurückliegendes. So ging es auch Jan de Haan, als er ein Stück für ein Jugendauswahlorchester der Niederlande, in dem er selbst einst mitspielte, schreiben sollte. Plotzlich fiel ihm ein damals oft programmiertes Stück namens Deep Harmony ein und er nahm diesen Flashback als Inspiration, dieses englische Kirchenlied in seinem neuen Werk zu verarbeiten. Der richtige Einfall im richtigen Moment, wie das Resultat beweist!Le flash-back est un phenomene psychologique. Des evenements du passe, imprimes dans la memoire a long terme, resurgissent comme une reponse inconsciente et soudaine a un stimulus lie a une experience anterieure.Cette œuvre a ete composee a l'occasion du cinquantieme anniversaire de l'Orchestre de Fanfare National des Jeunes des Pays-Bas, une formation talentueuse, dont Jan de Haan fut lui-meme membre, au cours des annees 1960. Jeune musicien, il eprouvait un profond respect pour le chef d'alors, Piebe Bakker (1929-2002), un homme passionne, avec un style de direction tres stimulant. En revenant sur cette periode, quarante ans apres, Jan de Haan a revecu lesnombreuses interpretations de la piece Deep Harmony. La melodie scintillante - extraite d'un cantique anglais - lui est alors apparue comme un flash-back et c'est comme un eclair mental qu'il a choisi de lui redonner vie dans le passage final de cette œuvre.

At funeral or memorial services and ceremonies, the traditional, slowly marching funeral music, the Tombeau, still plays an important musical role today. In most cases, such musics were created for a specific occasion, like the death of a prince or an artist. That was the case with this Tombeau for wind orchestra, too: Bertold Hummel wrote it after the death of a fellow composer and friend.Hummel was not afraid of expressing his feelings in a wistfully nostalgic funeral music full of tonal beauty which is close to the musical language of the 19th century with regard to form and harmony.In addition to the score and parts, our edition of this moving piece also contains the particell with which Hummel put down the Tombeau on paper in 1998.

Tiina Myllärinen's (b. 1979) (Bad) Dreams come true for strings quartet (2022) was composed when war broke out in Europe. The composer tells: The shock, and the daily news barrage of battles could not help making an impression on my work and its material. I wondered what dreams and plans people had in Ukraine before the war, and how everything became a nightmare in a single night. Terror, fear and tension found their way into the work, along with memories of life in the past and dreams of a different future. The work is dedicated to the people of Ukraine; to the dreams that will hopefully soon come true.This product includes the full score and a set of parts.Tiina Myllärinen’s music has been described as cheerfully inquisitive, vigorous and original. Her works include Squarcio for ensemble, the orchestral what? (2010) and Traces (2013, commissioned by the Pro Musica Foundation and premiered at the Helsinki Music Centre on 5 June 2014) and Three Songs for voice, guitar and cello (2007).
