English-German-French-Dutch.

Sanctuary was commissioned by Eastern Bay of Plenty Brass from New Zealand and was performed as an own choice piece at the 2018 New Zealand National Brass Band Championships. It opens with an expressive cornet solo, hymn-like in mood. A slightly faster central section builds to a change of key and an expansive return of the opening melody, this time scored for full band. After an emotional climax the mood subsides, leading to a quiet close.

Sanctuary werd geschreven in opdracht van Eastern Bay of Plenty Brass uit Nieuw-Zeeland en werd uitgevoerd als zelfgekozen werk tijdens de New Zealand National Brass Band Championships van 2018. Het werk opent met een expressieve kornetsolo, die qua atmosfeer veel weg heeft van een hymne. Een iets sneller middengedeelte werkt toe naar een verandering van toonsoort en een grootse terugkeer van de openingsmelodie, deze keer getoonzet voor de complete band. Na een emotioneel hoogtepunt wordt de muziek kalmer van sfeer en mondt ze uit in een rustig slot.

Sanctuary wurde von der Eastern Bay of Plenty Brass aus Neuseeland in Auftrag gegeben und als Selbstwahlstück bei den New Zealand National Brass Band Championships 2018 aufgeführt. Das Stück beginnt mit einem ausdrucksvollen Kornett-Solo in der Art eines Kirchenliedes. Ein etwas schnellerer Mittelteil führt zu einem Tonartwechsel und einer ausführlichen Rückkehr der Anfangsmelodie, die nun von der gesamten Brass Band gespielt wird. Nach einem emotionalen Höhepunkt beruhigt sich die Stimmung und mündet in einen ruhigen Schluss.

Sanctuary est une commande de l’ensemble néo-zélandais Eastern Bay of Plenty Brass, qui l’a interprétée en tant qu’œuvre libre « contemplative » au Championnat national de brass bands de Nouvelle-Zélande 2018. La pièce s’ouvre avec un solo de cornet expressif évoquant un hymne. Un passage central un peu plus rapide mène un changement de tonalité avant un retour majestueux la mélodie du début, cette fois faisant appel l’orchestre entier. Après un climax chargé d’émotion, la musique s’apaise pour aboutir une conclusion sereine.

In 2011, Barbara Garrop, my mother, commissioned me to write a piano trio in memory of Norman Garrop, my father, who passed away about thirty years ago. When I started brainstorming about topics for the piece, I found it difficult to recall many moments of my early life involving my father. Too many years had passed, and the memories that I could summon were of achild looking up to her father, not an adult relating to an equal. However, while collecting stories of my father from various family members, along with discovering a number of objects that had once belonged to him and that I had stored away in boxes decades ago, I began to realize that this piece wasn't so much about my father as it was about my re-discovering the man that he was: a loving husband and dad who cared deeply about his family and his passions (which included bike riding, collecting coins, strumming our guitar, playing baseball, watching football games, entertaining people, helping to run local theater and puppet productions, and carving objects out of wook); an accountant who dreamed of a better future: a treasurer of our local synagogue; an early advocate for computers (we owned an Apple II+); and a pranster with a great sense of humor. Ultimately, I decided to musically tell the story of my search for these memories. In the first movement (Without), a child calls out in a sing-song voice, searching for her lost parent. This search intesifies over the course of the movement through a series of themes, including a stepping motif in which a two-note progression steadily climbs higher, a pseudo-jewish folksong, and a passionate longing theme. The child's search becomes increasingly intense throughout the movement, calling out fervently and repeatedly to the parent; the movement ends in a moment of great tnesion and uncertainty. The second movment (Within) quietly opens with the lost parent finally answering, represented by a solo cello; the child (now personified by the violin) has found the parent within the sanctuary of her own heart. This movement highlights the joy and solemnity of this beautiful discovery. -S.G.
