Dionysos - Thomas Doss

This work is based on the story of Dionysus, the god of wine. It depicts village life in the valley of Mount Olympus. A fight disturbs cheerful dancing at the wine festival and the music becomes increasingly dominated by the main theme that depicts Dionysus himself. This impressive programmatic work is suitable for concerts or contests, and offers challenges throughout the music.

Diplomat - John Philip Sousa

One of the great classic Sousa marches, this edition is based on research combining early editions and historically informed Sousa performances. Now bands and conductors can present this great traditional march with the style and interpretation that made Sousa famous.

Diptyque - Jan van der Roost

Diptyque is the French word for "diptych," meaning a hinged two-part image. The first section of this two-part musical painting has an Oriental feel, with characteristic pentatonic melody lines and chords. The second section is a cheerful Saltarello dance that brings out the subtleties of the woodwind section. A juxtaposition of Eastern and Western music, Diptyque reminds listeners of the power of music in transcending all cultural, religious and political boundaries.

Dirty Dancing

Dirty Dancing - Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen

In November 2014, the conductor Peter Szilvay, on behalf of Christiania Wind Ensemble (Oslo), commissioned a piece from me. He was looking for a quite short piece of music, effective, intense and dance-like.He mentioned A Short Ride in a Fast Machine by John Adams, and I answered his request by writing my piece, Dirty Dancing. It is a rather easy listening piece that play with riffs and rhythms.Szilvay did not conduct the premiere of the piece. Trond Huseb took over and conducted the premiere the 7th of March 2015 in Oslo.
