SHARDS!€70.00SHARDS! was commissioned by Brass Band Pro Rege Heerenveen as their opening work at the WMC World Brass Band Championships 2017.
A shard of glass has a hard surface that reflects light. It also refracts light, giving a kaleidoscopic effect, although its edge can also be sharp as a razor. The musical language in this work represents the hard, sharp and kaleidoscopic features of shards of glass. -

Redbad€189.99Redbad was the King of the Frisians during the period of c. 680 to 719. This musical portrait consists of seven connected movements which are closely interwoven thematically. The composer drew his inspiration from historical information, but also from stories, anecdotes, myths and legends from Redbad’s time. The work begins with a heroic theme that introduces the legendary King of the Frisians. Fragments of this theme keep returning throughout the work. By means of strongly contrasting thematic material, Hell or Heaven conveys the way Redbad refused to be converted to Christianity – according to one anecdote, this was because he was afraid that he would not be reunited with his forefathers in heaven. Redbad regularly fought the Franks from the south, who were led by Pepin of Herstal, or the Duke of the Franks. Because of his three nicknames, the Younger, the Middle and the Fat, this Frankish warlord is musically represented through solos played by the three trombone players. After Pepin’s death in 714, expressed in Elegy 1, a civil war broke out.

Pagan Songs€104.99Dit werk, dat uit drie ononderbroken delen bestaat, is geïnspireerd op melodieën met een populair karakter. Het eerste deel omvat twee tegengestelde modale melodieën: de ene is heel opgewekt en levendig, de andere donker en zangerig. Verschillende motieven worden hier uitgewerkt tot contrastrijke muzikale passages. In het rustige tweede deel horen we een wijsje dat veel weg heeft van een wiegelied. Het werk eindigt met een uitbundig deel waarin een feestelijke dans in swingfeel tot klinken komt. Deze toegankelijke compositie, geschreven in opdracht van l’Association Suisse des Musiques, is met name bedoeld voor ensembles met een kleine of flexibele bezetting. De tijdsduur en de aard van dit werk maken het uitermate geschikt voor zowel wedstrijden als concerten.
