£159.60La Derniere Valse - Evzen Zamecník
The Czech composer Evzen Zmecnk, born in 1939, is not only known as adjudicator at the World Music Contest in Kerkrade. He is one of the most important wind band music composers in his country. His music is often inspired by Moravia, the area he is now living in. Here is a waltz with a typical East-European character, expressing a great melancholy. Both the origin and the theme of this 'Last Waltz' are very well rendered by the nostalgic and compelling nature of this composition with some surprising descriptive moments.

£38.20Persian March - Johann Strauss
Among the some 1500 compositions by Johann Strauss Sr. and his three sons there are some 70 marches, 45 of them written by Johann Strauss Jr. He composed military marches, marches for students and even a revolutionary march. Besides several exotic sounding concert marches, such as the Russian March, the Egyptian March, the Serbian March and the Spanish March Johann Strauss Son also wrote a Persian March: 'Persischer Marsch' opus 289. Originally the march was called 'Persischer Armeemarsch' (Persian Army March) and was written for the Shah of Persia, Nasir Ed-Dir in 1856. The composer made a first revision for a concert in the Vienna 'Volksgarten' (Popular Garden) in 1864 and a second for a concert in Pavlovsk, Russia in 1869. It is a march with an oriental sound in which the composer tried to recreate some exotic sonorities; he did not use any real Persian theme, but only tried to suggest the Persian atmosphere in his own style.

£90.30From My Songbook - Fabre
A new series with an exciting new sound!Michel Fabre is a shooting star on the Amsterdam pop music scene. As a composer he mainly writes educational pop music. Moreover, he writes songs in a style quite similar to the music of his colleague Robert MacRay who knew already a lot of success with compositions such a 'An All American Suite' and 'New St Petersburg'. So a collaboration seemed quite evident and the result is this simple three part suite. We get some Amsterdam street impressions and at the end we pay a visit to an extraterrestrial 'disco bar' where the music played is apparently based on a traditional blues scheme.
