Jusqu'à présent, le compositeur et interprète néerlandais Karel van Steenhoven, membre fondateur du célèbre Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet, a principalement écrite demandant la littérature concert pour l'enregistreur. Maintenant, il a ajouté un travail facile pour les débutants dans le répertoire de l'enregistreur: 'A Musical Journey' a été composée pour deux élèves de l'enregistreur jeunes et conduit à travers les différentes époques stylistiques de l'histoire de la musique européenne. Van Steenhoven a été inspiré par un vieil air de grec ancien qui se déplace de l'Antiquité classique en passant par le Moyen Age et l'époque baroque au jazz, du swing et de la musique moderne en 14 pièces de caractère de courte durée. D'une manière ludique et humoristique, les enfants sont ainsi initiés aux différents styles de musique. Une excursion d'une valeur éducative sans passer à côté fun et de plaisir. / 2 Flûtes A Bec Soprano

Illyria is a region in southern Europe, and the name has been used in books and music throughout history, including Shakespearean plays. Composer Sean O'Loughlin takes beginning students on a musical journey, starting with broad melodic statements by the brass, bold full ensemble statements, a contrasting lyrical section, and concluding with a relentless finish. Journey to Illyria is a sophisticated musical presentation that is still playable by the youngest of students.The title Journey to Illyria comes out of a recent internet search that came up with a similarly titled book by an author named Sean O'Loughlin (no relation). I'm always fascinated by how connected and small this world can seem. After some further research, I found that Illyria is also a name that appears in some fantasy fiction books and even on the TV show Angel. All of this gets wrapped into the music for this piece.It begins with a broad melodic statement by the brass. It develops further at m. 9 and then transitions to a full statement at m. 25 with plenty of imitation between upper and lower voices. A contrasting slower section follows at m. 39, which should bring out the haunting, rich sound of the ensemble. The fast section returns at m. 46 with progressively building imitation to bring back the opening gesture at m. 58. The music then is relentless to the rousing end.

Up to now, the Dutch composer and performer Karel van Steenhoven, founder member of the renowned Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet, has mainly written demanding concert literature for the recorder. Now he has added an easy work for beginners to the recorder repertoire: 'A Musical Journey' was composed for two young recorder pupils and leads through different stylistic eras of European music history. Van Steenhoven was inspired by an old tune from Ancient Greek which moves from classical antiquity via the Middle Ages and Baroque era to jazz, swing and modern music in 14 short character pieces. In a playful and humorous way, children are thus introduced to the different styles of music. An excursion of educational value without missing out on fun and pleasure.
