A Gabriely Fantasy€ 174,99In dit vijfdelige werk verkent Bert Appermont de mogelijkheden die driekorigheid binnen de brassband te bieden heeft. Hij gebruikte hiervoor het Canzon à 12 in echo van Giovanni Gabrieli, dat hij in 2018 al gebruikte voor een gelijknamig dubbelkorig tromboneoctet. Er valt in deze fantasie veel te genieten, met een scala aan motieven, melodische cellen en akkoorden plus contrapuntische technieken zoals de canon en imitaties. Een sfeervol en veelzijdig stuk muziek dat zorgt voor afwisseling in klank én podiumopstelling!
