The French-speaking Flemish singer, composer and lyricist Jacques Brel was born in Brussels in 1929. In the 1950s, he broke away from his bourgeois social background of his family and started an artist’s life in Paris, where he initially wrote chansons and earned a living by performing in small cabarets and bars. Over the following years he achieved worldwide fame with his chansons, which were alternately harsh and melancholic Roland Kernen has selected a number of the wonderful chansons written by this most creative artist to produce this unforgettable chanson medley.

De Franstalige Vlaamse zanger, componist en tekstschrijver Jacques Brel (1929-1978) spreekt ook vandaag de dag nog tot de verbeelding en zijn muziek is nog altijd geliefd. In zijn Brel-medley voor harmonieorkest verwerkte RolandKernen een aantal van de prachtige chansons die deze onvergetelijke artiest schreef: Vesoul, Amsterdam, Ne me quitte pas (Laat me niet alleen) en La valse mille temps.

Mit seinen Chansons, die mal barsche, mal melancholische Töne aufweisen, erlangte der flämische Sänger, Komponist und Lyriker Jacques Brel in den fünfziger und sechziger Jahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts Weltruhm. Auch weit über seinen Tod im Jahr 1978 hinaus kennt und liebt die Welt seine Lieder. In seinem Medley für Blasorchester verarbeitete Roland Kernen einige der wundervollen Chansons dieses unvergessenen Künstlers.

Vern on Park, Stockport’s oldest park, was created on land donated by Lord Vernon (George John Warren). It was built by poor mill workers who called it pinch-belly park and opened on 20th September 1858. Comprising twenty-one acres, it houses a museum, a bandstand, ornamental fountains, a fernery, rockery, borders and sunken rose garden as well terraced walkways that overlook the river and weir. The piece depicts a solitary walker engrossed in his own thoughts on a winter’s day, the landscape, and the park’s Victorian past.

At the very end of the piece a reminder of the park’s Victorian origins can be detected in a quote from Elgar’s Salut d’amour of 1899, which may well have been played by a band in the bandstand. Stockport market celebrated its 750th anniversary in 2010. It dated back to September 1260 when a Royal Charter allowed Robert de Stokeport, the Mayor, to hold a weekly market within the defensive walls of the Norman Castle on the present site of Castle Yard.

The Glass Umbrella was a popular name given to the 1861 covered market built of timber, glass and iron - nine bays with open sides and a glass canopy. In 1912, one bay was removed to enable electric trams and trolley buses to turn a sharp corner.

The piece depicts a lively market day, the multiculturalism of the present day and the old cries of pick and pay without delay. The bells of St Mary’s Church are depicted by a cascading peel tuned to the ten bells of the church tower, and a fleeting reference to John Wainwright’s famous Christmas hymn Christians Awake, and the Westminster chimes striking the hour from St Mary’s, bring to piece to a conclusion. Separate parts are provided for recorder and oboe.

Fille d with sparkle and dance-like rhythms, this charming work offers great variety from the typical handbell piece. Energetic Percussion parts and alternating meters create great excitement, contrasted by a mid-section of calm and great beauty. The glockenspiel part (a pattern of only four repeated notes) may be rung by handbells with the addition of Ab. In a word, captivating!
