Reflections was composed for the Japanese Trombone Quartet Zipang. The composer was so impressed by the quality of the quartet’s ensemble playing, blend and balance that he wanted to write a piece that would exploit these factors to the full. So the work is almost ‘conversationalâ� �™, with the four players assuming equal roles and separately moving the musical argument forward.

Reflections is na Tokyo Tryptich het tweede werk dat in opdracht van het Japanse trombonekwartet Zipang geschreven werd. Ge nspireerd door het uitgebalanceerde samenspel van de muzikanten, schreef Philip Sparke een werkwaarbij hij de nadruk legt op dit talent. Het werk is een dialoog tussen de volstrekt gelijkwaardige stemmen, een muzikaal debat waarin elk van de vier spelers zijn of haar mening mag geven.

Reflecti ons ist nach Tokyo Tryptich das zweite Werk, das vom japanischen Posaunenquartett Zipang in Auftrag gegeben wurde. Begeistert vom ausgewogenen Zusammenspiel dieser Musiker, schrieb Philip Sparke ein Stück, das diese Fähigkeit besonders hervorheben sollte. So ist Reflections fast ein Dialog zwischen gleichberechtigten Stimmen, die in der musikalischen Debatte alle ihre eigene Meinung“ beisteuern dürfen.

Reflections est, après Tokyo Tryptich, la deuxième oeuvre composée pour le Quatuor de Trombones Zipang, un ensemble professionnel constitué des plus éminents trombonistes du Japon. Impressionné par l‘interaction équilibrée entre ces musiciens, Philip Sparke écrivit cette pièce mettant en avant cette incroyable capacité. Reflections est un dialogue ouvert voix égales, où chacun exprime sa propre opinion.

Reflections, è dopo Tokyo Tryptich il secondo brano commissionato a Philip Sparke dal Quartetto di Tromboni Zipang. Impressionato dalle qualit del quartetto, Sparke ha composto un brano che lo valorizzasse ulteriormente.

Reflections on an Old Japanese Folk Song is based on the tune Suiryo-Bushi, which comes from the shamisen tradition and opens with two contrasting statements of the melody followed by several variations each in an own style based uponthe same tune, or sometimes only fragments of it. In one of the variants, the pentatonic scale is used. The final section is in the form of a scherzo, which eventually forms the accompaniment to a final presentation of the folk tune.

In een van de variaties wordt de pentatonische toonladder gebruikt. Het slotgedeelte begint met een scherzo, dat uiteindelijk de begeleiding vormt van een laatsteuiteenzetting van het volksliedje.

First written for string orchestra and later arranged for concert band, Water Reflections by Yukikko Nishimura has now been beautifully scored for full orchestra. In this setting, the gorgeous melodies are expanded with new harmonic depth and rich textures. Lush interplay between winds and strings is enhanced with stately percussion, timpani, and optional harp. The gentle opening melody leads to a faster, joyful middle section that eventually returns to the original lyrical theme.

This music was originally written for string orchestra. In this band version, the key has been changed to Bb major from A major. In my opinion, the music sounds gentler in Bb major. I like to see images that reflect on the water. In this piece you will find the same situation between the melodies in the different parts. Please look carefully at each part and try to find the reflections. Enjoy the dialogue of the phrases.  .

Reflections of Asia captures the feel of the Orient with its pentatonic themes. The oriental flavor is reflected in the percussion writing and use of common percussion toys. The main theme is presented in all voices of the band so everyone gets an opportunity to play this charming melody. This composition offers many teachable moments with its variety of articulations and dynamics. Reflections of Asia is an excellent opportunity to expand the cultural horizons of any young band; a truly impressive work.
