The famous Barcarolle from Offenbach’s The Tales of Hoffmann opens the fourth act of the opera, which takes place in Venice. For this reason Offenbach chose a barcarolle - a Venetian gondolier song with its characteristic swaying rhythm. Wil van der Beek’s arrangement gives this romantic song an alternative, lighter beginning, making it suitable for almost any wind orchestra. Jacques Offenbach (1819 - 1880) was een Franse componist van Duitse afkomst. Hij geldt in het algemeen als een van de belangrijkste scheppers van de operette, een term, die hijzelf nooit gebruikte, hij sprak liever van opéra bouffeof opéra comique. Hier mogen zijn alom bekende werken genoemd worden zoals “Orphée aux enfersâ€, “La belle Hélèneâ€, “Barbe-bleue†en “La vie Parisienneâ€.Offenbach schreef slechts één opera, die nu nog steeds repertoire houdt: “LesContes d’Hoffmannâ€, zijn zwanenzang, die bij zijn overlijden nog niet geheel af was. Ernest Guiraud voltooide dit werk en was zo handig om uit een eerdere compositie van Offenbach (“Les fées du Rhin†uit 1863) een lied te nemenen dit als barcarolle toe te voegen. Dit bleek een gouden greep te zijn! Deze barcarolle is immers wereldberoemd geworden.Een barcarolle (ook wel gondellied genoemd, het Italiaanse “barca†betekent boot) is een volksliedje, dat gezongenwordt door Venetiaanse gondeliers, of het is een muziekstuk, dat in die stijl gecomponeerd is, doorgaans in een wiegende 6/8 maat. Grote klassieke meesters namen graag barcarolles op in hun opera’s (Weber, Rossini, Donizetti,Verdi), maar als zelfstandige compositie is de barcarolle ook erg geliefd (Mendelssohn, Tschaikowsky, Bartok, Fauré, Glazoenov, Villa-Lobos, Gershwin, Bernstein bijv.).Die berühmte Barcarolle aus der Oper Hoffmanns Erzählungen von Jacques Offenbach eröffnet den vierten Akt der Oper, der in Venedig spielt. Daher wählte Offenbach eine Barcarole - ein venezianisches Gondellied mit seinem charakteristischen wiegenden Rhythmus. Mit einem alternativen, leichteren Beginn macht Wil van der Beeks Bearbeitung das romantische Lied fast jedem Blasorchester zugänglich. La célèbre Barcarolle des Contes d’Hoffmann ouvre le quatrième acte de cet opéra d’Offenbach. Celui-ci se déroulant Venise, le compositeur a choisi une barcarolle - un chant typique des gondoliers vénitiens dont le rythme évoque le balancement d’une barque. Wil van der Beek a arrangé cette chanson en lui donnant une introduction plus légère convenant tout orchestre d’harmonie. La famosa Barcarolle dall’opera I racconti di Hoffmann di Jacques Offenbach, apre il quarto atto dell’opera che si gira a Venezia, con una barcarola, canzone dei gondolieri veneziani dai ritmi molto ondeggianti. Optando per un inizio più accessibile, l’arrangiamento di Wil van der Beek di questa romantica canzone è adatto alla grande maggioranza delle bande.
