The Geuzen Medal is an annual award given to people or organizations who have found unique ways to further democracy in the world and help eliminate dictatorships, racism, and discrimination. The original Geuzen fought against Spanish imperialism in Holland during the16th century. During the Second World War a group resisting the Nazis also named themselves De Geuzen. Jan de Haan incorporates Psalm 43, sung by a group of condemned prisoners shortly before their execution in 1943, into Geuzen Medal Fanfare, composed for the 25th bestowal of this special award.

Ieder jaar weer wordt ze weer uitgereikt: de Geuzenpenning. Dit is aan een persoon of organisatie die zich op bijzondere wijze inzet voor de democratie en tegen dictatuur, racisme en discriminatie. In de zestiende eeuw streden deGeuzen tegen de Spaanse bezetting. In de Tweede Wereldoorlog was er eveneens een verzetsgroep die zich zo noemde. Een deel van hen werd in 1943 veroordeeld tot de doodstraf. Vlak voor de voltrekking van het vonnis zetten zij psalm43 in. Precies deze psalm verwerkte Jan de Haan in zijn openingswerk Geuzen Medal Fanfare. Hij schreef het ter gelegenheid van de vijfentwintigste uitreiking.

Der Geuzenpenning (Geuzen Medal) wird jährlich an Menschen oder Organisataionen verliehen, die sich auf besondere Weise für die Demokratie und gegen Diktatur, Rassismus und Diskriminierung eingesetzt haben. Die ursprünglichen Geuzen kämpften gegen spanische Besatzung in Holland im 16. Jahrhundert; im Zweiten Weltkrieg nannte sich eine Widerstandsgruppe gegen die Deutschen ebenfalls De Geuzen. Den Psalm 43, den eine Gruppe von Verurteilten 1943 kurz vor ihrer Hinrichtung anstimmte, verarbeitete Jan de Haan in seinem Eröffnungswerk De Geuzen Medal Fanfare, das er zur 25. Verleihung dieses besonderen Ordens schrieb.

La Médaille des Gueux décernée par la Geuzen Resistance Foundation 1940-1945, met l’honneur une personne ou une organisation méritante, s’étant engagée dans la lutte pour la démocratie. Le nom de la fondation tire son origine de la révolte des Gueux, mouvement patriotique néerlandais. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, des résistants reprirent le nom des Gueux. Lorsque quinze d’entre eux tombèrent aux mains des occupants allemands, ils entamèrent le Psaume 43. L’arrangement de Jan de Haan conserve l’authenticité de la mélodie originale.

Ogni anno la “Geuzen Medal”, viene conferita dalla Fondazione olandese “Geuzen Resistance 1940-1945 Foundation” quale tributo ad individui o istituzioni che si siano prodigate per la democrazia o contro le dittature, le discriminazioni ed il razzismo. Nel corso della seconda guerra mondiale, un gruppo di resistenti riprese il nome di “Geuzen”: 15 membri caddero prigionieri e al momento della loro fucilazione cantarono il Salmo 43.

From Ancient Times is a major work for brass band, inspired largely by the music of the Franco-Flemish School of the Renaissance. Hints of Gregorian chant and middle age dances pay tribute to music from even earlier times. The foundation of this spectacular work rests on truly ancient times; while the tonal language is of a much more modern nature!

From Ancient Times is een mijlpaal in het oeuvre van Jan Van der Roost. Doorgaans vinden zijn werken hun oorsprong veelal in de Vlaamse vocaalpolyfonie uit de renaissancetijd. Maar met gregoriaans gezang en middeleeuwse dansen grijpthij nu terug naar nog eerdere tijden. De basis voor dit grootse werk mag dan in ‘ancient times’ liggen, de toonspraak is dat zeer zeker niet..!

From Ancient Times ist ein Meilenstein in Jan Van der Roosts Oeuvre, das vor allem von der Musik aus der Zeit der flämischen Vokalpolyphonie inspiriert ist. Mit gregorianischen Reminiszenzen und einem mittelalterlichen Tanz wird jedoch auch auf noch ältere Musik zurückgegriffen: Grundlage dieses großartigen Werkes sind wahrlich alte Zeiten (ancient times), die Tonsprache hingegen ist vorwiegend modern.

From Ancient Times est une oeuvre de grande envergure, qui puise dans la musique franco-flamande de la Renaissance. La trame s'appuie sur quelques principes et techniques d'écriture caractéristiques de cette école qui a profondément transformé la musique occidentale. On y trouve également des réminiscences grégoriennes et une danse médiévale, mais le langage sonore reste essentiellement moderne. From Ancient Times est un sublime hommage aux maîtres des temps anciens.

From Ancient Times è un brano di grande impatto che attinge nella musica rinascimentale franco-fiamminga. La trama si appoggia su principi e tecniche di scrittura caratteristici di questa scuola che ha profondamente trasformato la musica occidentale. Si colgono anche reminescenze gregoriane e una danza medioevale, ma il linguaggio sonoro resta moderno. From Ancient Times è un omaggio ai grandi maestri dei tempi antichi.
