The forerunner of the Bottle Dance was written for the Blue Danube Harmonica Band in the early 1960s. Later, at the instigation of the excellent folk dance choreographer Miklós Manninger, an arrangement for wind band was prepared, in order to widen the ensemble s repertoire of German national pieces by the addition of a Hungarian dance. The production scored a resounding success not only with the audience but also with the musicians who performed in it, with the result that before long the composer prepared from the Bottle Dance an independent work for wind ensemble - a showy piece, virtuosic in its effect yet easily playable. The youth orchestra arrangement is a simplified andshortened version of the work for full-scale orchestra. Antal Farkas (1925-1992) komponierte hauptsächlich für Blasorchester und Bläser-Kammerensembles. Der Flaschentanz gehört zu seinen beliebtesten Werken. Der Vorläufer des Stückes entstand in den frühen 1960er Jahren für Akkordeonorchester. Auf Initiative des ausgezeichneten Volkstanzchoreographen Miklós Manninger fand später auch eine Bearbeitung für Blasorchester statt. Nicht nur beim Publikum, auch bei den ausführenden Musikern hatte das Stück durchschlagenden Erfolg, deshalb komponierte Farkas vom Flaschentanz bald darauf ein eigenständiges - eindrucksvolles, virtuos wirkendes - und dennoch leicht spielbares - Werk für Blasorchester. Die Bearbeitung für Jugendorchesterist eine vereinfachte und verkürzte Fassung der Fassung für großes Orchester. Imprégné des caractéristiques des styles de danses populaires hongroises, Bottle Dance est une oeuvre espiègle, remplie d’effets virtuoses. Les exigences techniques restent néanmoins raisonnables. Devant le succès de sa version originale pour Orchestre d’Harmonica, Antal Farkas a décidé de renouveler l’expérience en réalisant cette version pour Orchestre d’Harmonie. La “danza della bottiglia†fu scritta per la Harmonica Band Danubio Blu all’inizio degli anni ’60. Visto il grande successo della danza fu deciso di crearne un arrangiamento per banda. Bottle Dance si presenta al pubblico come un vero show, con effetti virtuosi e spettacolari.

Tracing the journey of a bottle carrying music, Miguel del Aguila’s MUSIC IN A BOTTLE is exhilarating and ravishing, yet equally poignant with sadness. The 10-minute work draws inspiration from post-minimalist textures and rich harmony. It is technically within the reach of intermediate to advanced students, as well as enticing for professional recitals.Music in a Bottle portrays the symbolic journey of a bottle carrying a message across the oceans and finally sinking without its message ever having been delivered.The bottle and its journey represent to me our own selves and our own lives’ journey, and how when we die we take with us most of the memories within us, many of which were undisclosed to everyone else.The work is divided in 3 sections:I. The Bottle’s JourneyII. The MessageIII. The Bottle SinksMusic in a Bottle has been recorded by James Miltenberger on the Scotwood Music CD, “20th Century Dances and Improvisations.â€â€” Miguel del Aguila.
