This delightful new composition takes its inspiration from the classic French swash buckling tale of Cyrano de Bergerac and his fight to win the love of the beautiful maiden Roxane. The subject was a perfect departure point for composing a symphonic poem with a variety of musical aspects reflecting the story. Lyricism (the theme of Roxane), dramatic episodes, as well as Debussy-inspired impressionist moments are some of the elements that give the band and its conductor the chance to expose themselves as a versatile ensemble being able to create colour, to sing and to play like virtuosi. This work is sure to become a standard item in the concert band repertoire.

In Cyrano verklankt de componist Piet Swerts het romantische en tragische verhaal van de briljante dichter en zwaardkunstenaar Cyrano de Bergerac en zijn mooie, intellectuele nicht Roxane, op wie hij tot over zijn oren verliefdis. Zijn uiterlijk, met name zijn buitengewoon grote neus, belet hem om zijn gevoelens tegenover haar te uiten. De vele verwikkelingen die uit deze situatie voortkomen zijn te herkennen in deze programmatische compositie.

Piet Swerts erzahlt hier musikalisch die tragisch-romantische Geschichte von Cyrano de Bergerac, der einem verliebten Freund hilft, seine Liebe zu erobern und sich dann selbst unglucklich in dessen Angebetete verliebt. Diese Komposition spiegelt die Geschichte mit einer Vielfalt an musikalischen Aspekten eindrucksvoll wider. Lyrik, dramatische Episoden sowie von Debussy inspirierte, impressionistische Momente sind einige der Elemente, die dem Blasorchester und seinem Dirigenten die Chance bieten, sich als vielseitiges Ensemble, das zugleich Farben entfalten, singen und virtuos spielen kann, zu prasentieren.

La comedie heroique Cyrano de Bergerac (1897) valut a son auteur une gloire immediate. Cyrano, heros tragique et attachant, est entre dans le patrimoine universel, sans doute parce qu'il incarne superbement un mythe bien ancien : celui de l'amour et du bonheur impossibles. Ce delicieux chef-d'œuvre theatral d'Edmond Rostand a inspire ce poeme symphonique de Piet Swerts qui s'articule autour d'une grande diversite musicale exprimant differentes scenes de la piece. Passages lyriques, episodes dramatiques et moments impressionnistes, Cyrano comprend de nombreux ingredients qui permettent au chef et a sa formation d'exploiter leur polyvalence a travers lacouleur, le chant et le jeu virtuose.

La commedia Cyrano de Bergerac (1897) valse al suo autore gloria immediata. Cyrano, eroe tragico e commovente, e entrato nel patrimonio universale senza dubbio perche incarna a meraviglia un mito molto antico: quello dell'amore e della felicita impossibili. Questo delizioso capolavoro teatrale di Edmond Rostand ha ispirato il poema sinfonico che si articola attorno ad una grande diversita musicale esprimendo diverse scene dell'opera teatrale. Passaggi lirici, episodi drammatici e momenti impressionanti, Cyrano comprende numerosi ingredienti che permettono al maestro di sfruttare la polivalenza attraverso il colore, il canto e il suono virtuoso.

For a long time after Romanticism had come to the fore, it was generally agreed that Brahms somehow did not get it: History and Progress - it was thought - were proceeding along one clear path and Brahms - who was composing sonatas and symphonies instead of nocturnes and symphonic poems - had taken the wrong way. Almost one century later, Schonberg wrote an essay, Brahms, der Fortschrittliche (Brahms, the progressive), in which he explained that it wasn't like that at all.Fully assuming the risk to appear somehow irreverent, I have to confess: Over the years, I came to the conclusion that the present - and the future - can be created only by loving the past. As Brahms had shown us, it is only by accepting the challenge of taking our heritage into our own hands, that we can create something new. We cannot avoid engaging with the past. Therefore, starting with my Sinfonia n. 1, I began to flirt with such a strong and effective musical structure like the sonata form. I re-read and freely transformed it, because it is a sturdy and resilient structure, but also a theatrical and colorful one. For me, it is a happy structure. And I think that today more than ever we need something like this: We need to find places - even imaginary ones - where we can give happiness a form of its own.Nicola Campogrande, December 2020

Giovanni Podera: Fantasia (In memoriam Joaquín Rodrigo)
Marco Reghezza: Nana Estrellada
Marco Simoni: Junto a Rodrigo
Marco Smaili: Fronda de la tarde (Homenaje a Joaquín Rodrigo)
Paolo Ugoletti: Fuga a 4 voci

Following the successful publication of Homenaje a Rodrigo (2015), containing four pieces by Alessandro Spazzoli – one of which was performed in the presence of the composer’s daughter, Cecilia Rodrigo, during her visit to the International Convention in Alessandria –, here is the second volume. It contains more tributes to Rodrigo written on my input by five well-known Italian and Spanish composers, two of whom are also guitarists and have therefore written the fingering for their own pieces.
Giovanni Podera plunges us into a typically Rodrigo-like atmosphere with his evocative Fantasia, while the following three compositions are full of direct quotations from pieces also for guitar by the great composer from Valencia. Thus, Marco Simoni, in his expressive Junto a Rodrigo – which also provides the title to the volume – plays with themes taken from Junto al Generalife and from Dos piezas caballerescas for a cello ensemble as well as hinting at reminiscences of Tiento antiguo. As for Marco Smaili, in his impressionistic Fronda de la tarde, he evokes quite evidently Zarabanda lejana and Invocación y Danza, but there are more hidden references to Caminos de Santiago and even to the very famous Concierto de Aranjuez. Marco Reghezza builds his heart-breaking Nana estrellada on a sequence of chords used by Rodrigo in the fantasia ¡Que buen caminito!.
On the other hand, there are no direct quotations and echoes of Rodrigo’s way of writing in the Fuga a quattro voci by Paolo Ugoletti. However it was Rodrigo himself who constructed four-part imitative passages for guitar in Pasacalle and in the Ricercare of the Fantasia para un Gentilhombre. The close polyphony of the piece by Ugoletti may be considered as a tribute to this kind of craft shown by Rodrigo who, like Ugoletti, was able to write such dense and idiomatic counterpoint without being a guitar-player.
I am pleased that this volume comes out in the imminence of the 20th anniversary of the disappearance of the illustrious Spanish composer who gave so much to the musicians – and not only to them.
(Piero Bonaguri)
