This medley has been inspired by Peter Kleine Schaars’ previous experience that every concert should end with a selection of unbeatable melodies. With this in mind Peter Kleine Schaars has chosen some of his favourite pop songs and combined them to form this lively medley. Hits include That’s the Way I Like It, Boogie Down, One Day I’ll Fly Away, Fantasy and Street Life. A fantastic way to bring any concert to a close.

Jarenlang luisterde Peter Kleine Schaars met zijn jazzkwartet diverse festiviteiten en gelegenheden op. Het ensemble wisselde indien gewenst het jazzrepertoire af met pop en latin. De ervaring leerde de muzikanten hoe ze elk feestdynamisch konden afsluiten met een uur onovertroffen repertoire. Kleine Schaars koos hieruit zelf zijn favoriete popstukken en arrangeerde ze in zijn levendige medley That’s the Way (I Like Them).

Viele Jahre lang unterhielt Peter Kleine Schaars' Jazz-Quartett bei diversen Festlichkeiten und Gelegenheiten - je nach Wunsch mit Jazz oder auch mit Pop und lateinamerikanischer Musik. Dabei stellten die Musiker immer wieder fest, dass eine Stunde absolut spitzenmäßiges Pop-Repertoire der perfekte Schlusspunkt einer jeder schwungvollen Party ist. Aus dieser praktischen Erfahrung heraus wählte Kleine Schaars seine Lieblings-Pop-Stücke aus und arrangierte sie in vorliegendem lebhaften Medley mit dem Titel That's the Way (I Like Them). Unschlagbar in jedem unterhaltsamen Konzertprogramm!

“I asked my friend, the poet Einar Askestad, if he could write a poem for me about love between father and son, brothers and God.
I felt that these forms of love are seldom sung about. The poem moved me greatly and I have tried to put music to these words which is simple yet full of beauty. In the four movements of this suite-like piece, various aspects of these relationships are conveyed.” (Marten Jansson)


“My music is my own and I have never tried to be original. That has always been my motto and I have only tried to use music to express all the feelings which life has to offer. This has led people to describe my music as ‘so sad that it sounds like birds who have lost their wings‘ but also as ‘the happiest classical music that we have ever heard’.
My compositions are almost all sacred. They express not only my own faith but also my appreciation and respect for the timeless texts that have been used for centuries and centuries.”

Mårten Jansson (b. 1965), elected member of the Föreningen svenska tonsättare (the Society of Swedish Composers), graduated from the Royal College of Music, Stockholm (KHM) with an MFA degree in Music Education, Dalcroze Eurhythmics and Voice. For more than ten years he was the music director and conductor of “Carmen”, one of the most prominent womens’ vocal ensembles in Sweden. He currently teaches choral conducting and music theory as well as giving vocal tuition at the Bolandgymnasiet and Musikskolan in his home town of Uppsala.

Ellen Taaffe Zwilich’s Septet is the first major work written for this combination of instruments, and the pioneering process was greatly enjoyed by the composer: “While the instrumentation of the Septet provides an almost orchestral palette, and it was interesting to explore that, I love the idea of seven artist-performers, each of whom can be a stunning virtuoso one moment and a thoughtful partner the next, and I relish the electricity that results from those shifting roles.” Septet was written for the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio and the Miami String Quartet, to whom it is dedicated. String parts available on rental. For advanced ensembles. Duration: 24’.
Writing music is a labor of love for me.  My greatest joy is writing for performers whom I can be sure will not only deliver the notes accurately, but will project the meaning behind the notes.  To have performers in the wings who will bring their own imagination and deep understanding to a performance is an inspiration to me.  So I approached the writing of my Septet for the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio and the Miami String Quartet with great anticipation and pleasure.The fact that there is no model for such a Septet made the pre-composition process a most enjoyable exploration.  I liked the idea of having two strong ensemble personalities in the mix, and I thought that there must be some sort of challenging interchange at the outset.  The first movement, “Introductions,” (note the plural) starts with the piano trio throwing down the gauntlet and the string quartet entering quietly, but gradually (almost one by one) joining with the trio to make a true septet with multi-faceted relations.  The second movement, “Quasi una Passacaglia,” is based on a repeated phrase pattern.  Part of the formal design is a contrast between “Baroque” style performance and modern, more romantic ways of playing.  “Games,” the third movement, involves much playful interplay and the fourth movement, “Au revoir,” offers both reminiscence and farewell – not “good-bye,” but “until we meet again.”Throughout the piece, two of my persistent fascinations are explored: firstly, my interest in designing initial material that can evolve into large-scale form, and secondly, the pleasure I take in chamber music.  While the instrumentation of the Septet provides an almost orchestral palette and it was interesting to explore that, I love the idea of 7 artist-performers, each of whom can be a stunning virtuoso one moment and a thoughtful partner the next, and I relish the electricity that results form those shifting roles.
