    Quadrille - Anton Bruckner

    In September 2024, we celebrate the 200th birthday of the Upper Austrian composer and organist Anton Bruckner. Many of his well-known works have already been arranged for wind orchestras, but the Quadrille, originally composed for piano for four hands, is still missing in the repertoire. This arrangement by Andreas Ziegelbck aims to fill that gap, staying closer to the original piano version. While the six movements of the piece can be seen as standalone short pieces, it is recommended to perform all movements. This arrangement expands Anton Bruckner's repertoire for wind orchestras with a rarely played musical gem.

    Columbus - Thierry Deleruyelle

    Columbus is a brilliant and dynamic overture with a soft and melodious central passage. The composer was inspired by the European space laboratory Columbus that is part of the International Space Station. In this lab, hundreds of scientific experiments are carried out on a yearly basis. This work was commissioned by the Brass Band Bourgueillois, which was founded ten years ago and has since been a 'laboratory' of musical creativity. In response to the many positive reactions to this attractive work, the composer has now also produced a version for concert band.

    Rising into a new era - Hermann Pallhuber

    "Rising into a New Era" was commissioned by the city of Landeck in 2023 to commemorate its 100th anniversary since being declared a city. The composition serves as the introductory part of a trilogy, encapsulating the years from 1923 to 1956, depicting Landeck's transformation from a market town to a city. The outset of the piece is characterized by a reserved and hushed atmosphere, reflecting the initial uncertainty during a period of economic challenges. The optimistic anticipation of a new beginning is only echoed by the sound of the city's new bells. The central motif, threading throughout the entire composition, is derived from the name of the city: LAnDECk (A-D-E-C). This motif unfolds at the onset within the resonance of the city's bells, gradually evolving into the main theme through the gentle tones of the clarinets. Following the initial years of the burgeoning city, where a positive societal shift and newfound security are symbolized by a second musical theme, the sudden eruption of the Second World War disrupts this progress. A mournful melody, borrowed from the cheerful second theme of the piece, speaks of sorrow, nostalgia, yet also solace and hope for peace and freedom. A "Vivace furioso" captures the uncertainties and intense turbulence of the war. These tumultuous emotions gradually settle, culminating after a delicate oboe and saxophone solo into the now powerful main theme presented in the form of a majestic chorale. A "Vivace con bravura" brings the composition to a radiant conclusion, signifying a strengthened future for the city of Landeck.

    Jet Stream - Andreas Ziegelbäck

    "Jet Stream" is a composition for a small wind orchestra. The term "Jet Stream" refers to a high-speed wind that occurs in the lowermost layer of Earth's atmosphere. Different temperature regions on Earth's surface give rise to these strong winds, particularly in the border areas where warm and cold air masses separate. The horizontally flowing winds around the globe can reach speeds of up to 540 kilometers per hour, approximately fifteen kilometers above our heads. These rapid wind movements play a crucial role in shaping our planet's weather and climate.To symbolize the wind, a device known as a "Howling Tube" is employed in the percussion section. The composition "Jet Stream" aims to capture the intensity and energy of these high-altitude winds in a musically and technically accessible manner. Simultaneously, it serves as a reminder, through its dramatic musical language, to treat our environment with greater care. Due to its modest instrumentation, the piece is particularly suitable for wind ensembles, including school wind bands.

    Iron Mountain - Gerald Oswald

    "Iron Mountain" portrays the legend of the Erzberg in Austria in an impressive musical manner. At the beginning, the atmosphere of the cave where the Waterman resides comes to life through simulated water droplets. The Waterman is pursued and captured by humans. In his desperation, he pleads for freedom and presents an offer to the people: gold mines for a year, silver mines for ten years, or iron mines forever. The clear response from the people is iron forever. The composition's finale emphasizes this choice with impactful anvil strikes, and the Erzberg rises triumphantly to the forefront of the narrative.

    The Last Typewriter - Jacob de Haan

    This work describes the history and development of the typewriter in the newspaper world. The typical typing sound is the connecting thread, while a variety of music styles follow one another. In the end, the old familiar writing device is defeated when it has to make way for the computer. The composition features solos for various instruments that accompany the recurring typewriter. In a theatrical context, offering room for original ideas, the musical narrative will come across even better.
