Par WILLIAMS JOHN / HVEEM DAVID (Arr.). «Cantina Band (or «Mad About Me») was written by John Williams in 1977 for the film Star Wars (later Star Wars IV: A New Hope). Even with quite a bit of the Star Wars music being quite well known, Cantina Band is literally in a style of its own. In the Star Wars-universe this style is called «jizz», Williams’ take on the more well-known genre «jazz». Williams was tasked by Star Wars-creator George Lucas to make music that sounded like «several creatures in a future century finding some 1930's Benny Goodman swing band music ... and how they might attempt to interpret it» and ended up with Cantina Band #1 and #2. Both numbers are played in the legendary scene taking place in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina where Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi gets in a fight causing even the band to stop playing. The band, which goes by the name Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, comes from the planet Clak'dor VII and specializes in jizz and the nearby, slightly older style of jatz. Performers of this music often go by the name 'jizz-wailers', and the Bith people from Clak'dor VII are especially well suited for jizz-wailing since they can hold every note as long as they want thanks to a unique respiratory system - something many perhaps would like to be able to do in the performance of this arrangement as well. The arrangement is relatively faithful to Williams' original version, but with a somewhat different ending. Although the woodwind section undoubtedly has the biggest technical challenges, an understanding of the musical style is the very key to making the arrangement sound good - and here all groups must work together. Playing lightly but quite articulated, and very precise, will be an absolute necessity to get the music drifting off all the way to Tatooine. In measure 113 there is a small improvised solo in either trombone or trumpet, but if you want the real authentic Cantina Band-sound this is of course done on a steel drum. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

Webs In A Stolen Dream for Chamber Ensemble (1996). Written for The Nordic Music Season in the UK as a joint commission from the Storstrøm’s Ensemble Avanti Sonanza Cikada Ensemble and the Composer’s Ensemble.  Programme Note Ever since the first time I read György Ligeti’s description of a particular dream he had as a child this dream has pursued me. Both because for some strange reason it is impossible to get rid of and because I literally spoken ’dream it’ myself now and then.  He writes among other things:  ’In my earliest childhood I once dreamt that I couldn’t reach my bed (which had bars and was regarded as a safe place of refuge). For the whole room was filled with a thin but dense web very much like the web which the silk butterfly’s caterpillar is spun in. Not only I but also other beings were caught in this gigantic net.  When something moved this made a shaking which spread to the whole system. All around inextricable knots were made and at other places cavities where rags of the original web substance was drifting about. The changes of the system were irrevocable: no condition could possibly come back. There was something extremely sad about this process the feeling of hopelessness because of the expiring time and the past which could never be re-made’  In my short piece I only move a little hesitating distance into this equivocal world where the beauty of the silk thin net is so totally grown together with the feeling of decay loss and ’gone time’.  Karl Aage Rasmussen
