Sueños de Flamenco

UPC: 680160684670. 9 x 12 inches.

Flamenco is an art form involving highly dramatic music and dance. The form is strongly associated with the Andalusia region of southern Spain. Its actual origins are less clear, though historians theorize that gypsies brought the predecessors of flamenco to the region as they migrated from India prior to the 15th century. The form took on traits from cultures that the gypsies encountered in Andalusia, including Spanish, Sephardic, Islamic, and Moorish musical traditions. Over the centuries, Spain's ruling classes undertook systematic persecutions of populations who did not agree with their religious ideals, forcing gypsies to take refuge in Andalusia's isolated mountain regions to survive. Not surprisingly, the topics of the gypsies' songs frequently touch on longing, despair, rage, anguish, and hope.
Suenos de Flamenco (Flamenco Dreams) portrays a young gypsy couple who dance the flamenco with great longing, passion, and vigor. The piece was commissioned by Duo Montagnard (Joseph Murphy, saxophone, and Matthew Slotkin, guitar). In 2020, I made new editions of the piece for clarinet and guitar, and flute and guitar.

Free World Fantasy was commissioned in Holland for celebrations commemorating the liberation of Groningen, and therefore symbolises the dream of a world without war. It is the first piece of a series in which composer, Jacob de Haan, combines concert band music with a pop style.

Dit werk componeerde Jacob de Haan in 1987 in opdracht van de provincie Groningen. Aanleiding was de Bevrijdingsdag. De muziek symboliseert de droom van een wereld zonder oorlog. Het is het eerste werk uit een reeks waarin Jacob deHaan amusementsmuziek en serieuze muziek vermengd tot een muziekstijl die aan filmmuziek doet denken.

Dieses Werk komponierte Jacob de Haan 1987 im Auftrag der niederländischen Provinz Groningen anlässlich des Befreiungstages. Die Musik symbolisiert den Traum von einer Welt ohne Krieg. Es handelt sich um das erste Werk einer Reihe, in welcher Jacob de Haan Unterhaltungsmusik und ernste Musik zu einer Stilart vermischt, die an Filmmusik erinnert.

Free World Fantasy (“Fantaisie du monde libre”) symbolise le rêve que nous chérissons tous : celui d’un monde sans guerre et sans haine. Dans cette composition, Jacob de Haan combine le style classique une rythmique récurrente issue de la musique pop pour créer un genre proche de la musique de film. Une fresque musicale qui sonne comme un appel la paix.

Jacob de Haan compose questo brano nel 1987 su incarico della provincia olandese di Groningen per celebrare il giorno della liberazione. La musica simboleggia il sogno di un mondo senza guerre. Free World Fantasy è il primo brano di una serie firmata da Jacob de Haan, nella quale il compositore olandese mischia sapientemente musica da intrattenimento a musica più seria, in uno stile che ricorda la musica da film.

In the composition, the dream of a world without war is symbolized. It is the first composition in a series in which Jacob de Haan combines concert music with pop music in a style, which reminds one of film music.
