£116.40Suite de Salon - Henk van Lijnschooten
Commissioned by the NIB, the Dutch Wind Music Institute, with the financial support of the 'Fonds voor de scheppende Toonkunst'.CommentaryThis suite brings us back to the 18th century when an important part of the musical life took place in the salons, the favorite quarters of monarchs and important people.There is a ball and we can hear the music in four successive short movements.1. Entree. After an opening fanfare we see the solemn reception of the guests. The composer uses some 17th century musical principles such as the echo dynamics.2. Invitation a la Danse. The guests proceed to the ballroom and are officially introduced. This movement has a 'classical' character.3. Chiaconna. A solemn dance of Spanish origin with a single theme that is repeated with different embellishments and accompaniments.4. Danse Finale. A cheerful dance announces the departure of the guests, but, for sure, the feast will have lasted much longer than this suite.

£116.40Rhapsody Fan Fryslan - Henk van Lijnschooten
(Rhapsody from Friesland)Friesland (Frysln in the Frisian language) does not only have its own language but it also boasts a very rich own culture with many folk songs sometimes dating from many centuries. This rhapsody is based on a number of those songs and from a stylistic viewpoint it is related to the famous Rhapsody from the Low Countries by the same composer.A solemn introduction is followed by a merry dancing song (De Boalserter merke) and a second, rather melancholic, theme (It Aldershs). Then we hear a short choral with a melody from the sixteenth century. The next theme has the character of a barcarole and is usually attributed to Mozart (Wldsang). The finale is a kind of tarantella and asks for quite some virtuosity from the band (Yn 'e Snitser merke).
