Commissi oned by the Ensemble Intercontemporain In 1989 I first discovered the writings of Anne-Marie Albiach. H II lineaires especially impressed me, on the one hand through the sensual presence of the words, and on the other hand, above all, through the spatial disposition of the typography. This is a form of writing which has nothing to do with all that has existed before it. This impression was the starting point for a creative work which has since become a kind of a project to which I will dedicate myself throughout my life. Since that time of my first discovery (in which hundreds of pages of sketches and a published excerpt of a score of a syntagma have been composed, namely << monstrueuse vecut dans le cadre >> la memoire) I have attempted to develop a new musical system that encompasses all the parameters of composition. All of these works which I have composed are independent from this enormous project, but at the same time they form the experimental laboratory for the all-encompassing musical system towards which I am working and developing: a new system of determining pitches, metre, dynamics, musical diction, manner of performance, etc. With << monstrueuse vecut dans le cadre >> la memoire it appears that the research for this project has been concluded. After the two large cycles << Les Georgiques >> on texts from Claude Simon and << Tristram Shandy >> from Laurence Sterne, both employing techniques from my work with Albiach's texts, I could finally compose this work, which was originally conceived for voice and 6 instrumental groups - the system was mastered, so to speak. Anne-Marie Albiach's establishes the genetic code for the piece, without the words having to be spoken.. Her text is, in the true sense of the word, measured from one syntagma (syntactical element), from one void (space) to another, and this results in temporal structures of ensemble texture. This is opposed to another texture, which is the temporal measurement of a recitation of the text by the author: her voice, using the range of her voice, is the viola solo - a recitation, in its unique individuality, on which the cold, typographical structure of the ensemble superimposed. Every time I read a text of Anne-Marie Albiach, it seems to me that she is saying that which I do. An extremely rare coincidence, like that with the violist Odile Auboin, the soloist, who I think works in the same manner and has the same approach to things. Score available separately - see item CA.1632600.

E texts of the French author Anne-Marie Albiach have long been the point of departure for my works. Following the viola concerto << monstrueuse vecut dans le cadre >> la memoire, which is based on her << H II>> lineaires, the three texts entitled << une geometrie >> have generated a new cycle. As in the other two works of the cycle, << figurations de memoire >> is predicated on two different readings of the text: on the one hand a (private) reading by Anne-Marie Albiach in which time is measured [demarcated] out; while on the other hand the graphic text is measured millimeter by millimeter. The latter serves as the basis - the genetic code - for the temporal, horizontal structure of the quintet, whereas the reading of the author appears in rhythmic surfaces which interrupt the horizontal plane. In << figurations de memoire >> two clearly recognizable elements are repeated: the tone b (which plays a central roll in most of my works) and a chord of fifths built around the tone b - a piece of memory (memoire) from viola concerto. In contrast, the extended chords of the reading consist of five tones which in their frequencies are equidistant from each other (like an overtone chord). For the generation of tone materials the chords of both levels are compressed and stretched within the ranges (frames) of tones from which the horizontal positions of the text fragments are derived: lower, borderline tones on the left margin, and higher borderline tones on the right margin. Thus the disposition on the page, essential for Anne-Marie Albiach (and first introduced in poetry by Mallarme in Un coup de des jamais n'abolire le hasard), is rendered in sound. Naturally each element of the text serves to mold structure and dynamic, to include typography: fragments within quotation marks, in italics, etc., yield different sonorous images [sonorities] and movements. Each word from the typographical reading is orchestrated [instrumentated] differently, which is important for the whole cycle (however, the chords of the spoken reading are always played by five instruments; here only speech and pauses in speech [[interruptions of speech]are distinguished from each other). Thus a tight network of instrumental combinations is created in which, word for word, the text is made audible. The most important element in the process: the vertical, synchronized playing together of the individual instruments (Synchorniestudie), ranging from solo to quintet.

A flashback is an interesting psychological phenomenon: a seemingly random trigger can bring back long-forgotten memories from the subconscious mind. The composer underwent a similar experience before writing this piece. He was asked to write a piece for The National Youth Fanfare Band in the Netherlands, one which he heard perform many years ago. All of a sudden he remembered Deep Harmony, a piece frequently programmed back then. He used his own flashback-experience as an inspiration to weave an old English hymn into his new composition, much like a musical flashback. The right idea at the right moment, as this piece will prove!Een flashback is een psychologisch fenomeen: een hedendaagse belevenis roept zomaar uit het niets herinneringen uit het verleden op. Zo verging het ook Jan de Haan, toen hij een muziekstuk voor het Nationaal Jeugd Fanfare Orkest inopdracht kreeg. Het is het orkest waarin hij zelf ooit speelde. Plotseling viel hem het werk Deep Harmony in, een werk dat hij destijds vaak had gespeeld. Zijn flashback op dit Engelse kerklied nam hij als inspiratiebronen hij verwerkte het in dit nieuwe muziekstuk. De juiste inval op het juiste moment, zoals nu iedereen kan horen!Ein Flashback ist ein psychologisches Phanomen: Eine Erfahrung weckt scheinbar aus dem Nichts die Erinnerung an lang Zurückliegendes. So ging es auch Jan de Haan, als er ein Stück für ein Jugendauswahlorchester der Niederlande, in dem er selbst einst mitspielte, schreiben sollte. Plotzlich fiel ihm ein damals oft programmiertes Stück namens Deep Harmony ein und er nahm diesen Flashback als Inspiration, dieses englische Kirchenlied in seinem neuen Werk zu verarbeiten. Der richtige Einfall im richtigen Moment, wie das Resultat beweist!Le flash-back est un phenomene psychologique. Des evenements du passe, imprimes dans la memoire a long terme, resurgissent comme une reponse inconsciente et soudaine a un stimulus lie a une experience anterieure.Cette œuvre a ete composee a l'occasion du cinquantieme anniversaire de l'Orchestre de Fanfare National des Jeunes des Pays-Bas, une formation talentueuse, dont Jan de Haan fut lui-meme membre, au cours des annees 1960. Jeune musicien, il eprouvait un profond respect pour le chef d'alors, Piebe Bakker (1929-2002), un homme passionne, avec un style de direction tres stimulant. En revenant sur cette periode, quarante ans apres, Jan de Haan a revecu lesnombreuses interpretations de la piece Deep Harmony. La melodie scintillante - extraite d'un cantique anglais - lui est alors apparue comme un flash-back et c'est comme un eclair mental qu'il a choisi de lui redonner vie dans le passage final de cette œuvre.

Sa ving Private Ryan is certainly one of Steven Spielberg's most powerful films. The brilliant John Williams score creates part of this power. Hymn to the Fallen one of the most powerful and emotional melodies which appears during the closing credits, evokes a feeling of hope and strength amid the overall tone of reverence. Philip Sparke has transcribed this moving work for brass band using John Williams original orchestral score as the source. For added effect this work can also be performed with a wordless chorus, with parts being available separately.
A terrific Brass Band arrangement of Johnm Williams' Hymn To The Fallen from the paramount and DreamWorks motion picture Saving Private Ryan - by Philip Sparke.
