    Symphonic Variations (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob

    This composition is based on a passacaglia theme, in which artistic perfection, symphonic drama and oriental melody lines play a role. The passacaglia is originally a dance made up of a series of variations above a bass line constantly present as an ostinato. It is not in this sense that the "Symphonic Variations" are in the passacaglia form but in the sense of the open form of the variations. Jacob de Haan, himself originally an organist, took his inspiration for this piece from the famous passacaglia for organ in C-minor by J.S. Bach. Following the introduction of the passacaglia theme (in the bass) the entry by the trumpets and trombones forms the majestic start to a musical adventure, in which this theme (often fragmentary) returns in variations. Then there follow two faster movements with dramatic contrasts and virtuose passages. Particularly striking here is the use of two characteristic intervals from the beginning of the theme namely the minor second and the augmented fourth. An apause in the composition comes in the slow bridge where a syncopated bourdon (perfect fifth) is constantly repeated. The tension grows in dynamics and harmony, and the oriental-flavour becomes obvious in the melody. We arrive at a faster movement via an accelerando, in which a perpetuum mobile based on the passacaglia theme is central. Finally the whole flows into a martial theme, in which the ostinato accompaniment n the descant derives from the passacaglia theme.Duration: 11:15

    Pastorale Symphonique (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob

    Jacob de Haan has composed a very interesting concert work with Pastorale Symphonique. Through music the composer reflects on one of today's most important concerns, the adverse effect on the environment caused by man. The work consists of two main themes; one symbolises unspoiled nature and the second the negative influences of man on nature. A constant interaction between both themes develops into a meaningful final marche funebre.Duration: 10:30

    Hanseatic Suite (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob

    Dreaming of love. This is the theme of the folksong on which the composition was based. Its characteristic melody inspired Jacob de Haan to this instrumental romance with a transparent structure consisting of an introduction, the folk-melody, a development of the theme, the folk-melody accompanied by ornamental triplets followed by the final bars..Duration: 6:30
