Big Band Spectacular

Pasodoble de Concierto-María Gil Herrero was specially commissioned by Antonio Estevan a great connoisseur and lover of music for wind band. This piece is dedicated to Estevan’s wife María to commemorate the celebration in 2009 of their golden wedding anniversary. It was premiered on 30 January 2010 at the Teatro Cervantes of Sax Alicante province (Spain) by the Banda Unión Musical de Sax under the direction of its conductor D. Roberto Trinidad Ramón.The piece opens with a spectacular introduction leading to an expressive saxophone solo. The rubato accents of the first melodic motif give way to the central section which has a distinct and triumphal character. At Estevan’s request trumpetand flute solos highlight the more flamboyant passages. The soft and harmonious colours of the trio’s exquisite melody lead to a recapitulation of the central section before reaching the final climax.María Gil Herrero a concert pasodoble written in a traditional style will enthral the audience with its outstanding character and typically Spanish musical form.

A spectacular dive via an extended chromatic scale immediately submerges us in a charged and somewhat archaic-feeling atmosphere. Trumpets horns and trombones resound in rhythmic patterns buttressed by restless motifs in the percussion. A second theme in the woodwinds begins much calmer but is quickly pushed aside by that same brass offensive. This introduction is the musical expression of the sometimes tumultuous early history of the town of Peer in Belgium. It closes with a D scale played over two octaves and repeated three times symbolizing the church steeples that dominate the townscape. Peer has the credentials of a town and people should know about it.There followsa rhythmic turbulent passage: in the course of history Peer has not been spared the ravages of war arson occupation epidemic and other evils. In contrast a slow pastoral lyrical part expresses the periods of peace and prosperity the town has known as well as the serene geographic setting that still characterizes the place. Various instruments in groups are developed in solo style while the accompaniment displays vast painterly images of sound. Now and then an exotic intonation is heard: a variety of peoples and cultures have left their mark on the town.This episode of tranquility and peacefulness comes to a sudden end when via a surprising almost chaotic transitional passage we are in effect transported back to our own time. A hopeful festive march expresses the confidence in the future that the Royal Concert Band of Peer exudes. This confidence is wholly justified: under the direction of conductor Willy Fransen the 95 members of the concert band have experienced an extended period of good fortune and the 75 musicians of the youth band - and the 45 little musicians of the mini-band - are involved in thriving operations.
