This work in four sections is written for a four-part variable instrumentation together with drums. We start off_x001E_ in the _x001F_first movement on an adventurous safari. In the second and third movements we’re on the hunt for great beasts of Africa, which can also be heard with all their stomping, screeching and yelling. A wonderful musical safari that all musicians and listeners alike will enjoy! Dit werk voor vierstemmige variabele bezetting met slagwerk beschrijft in vier deeltjes verschillende taferelen van het Afrikaanse continent. In het eerste deel gaan we op safari. In het tweede deel gaan we op zoek naar een olifant, een neushoorn, een luipaard een leeuw en een buffel. Welke reptielen kunnen we ontdekken in het derde deel? En hoe kan het beter stoppen dan met een ‘Monkey Rock’? Tijdens het werk kun je actief verschillende dierengeluiden nabootsen, waardoor je je echt in de jungle waant!Dieses vierteilige Werk ist für eine vierstimmig variable Besetzung und Schlagzeug instrumentiert. Der Titel spricht schon für sich: In African Scenes spielt der schwarze Kontinent die Hauptrolle. Im ersten Satz starten wir zu einer abenteuerlichen Safari. Im zweiten Teil geht es auf die Suche nach den ‚Big Five’ - den großen Fünf“: Elefant, Nashorn, Leopard, Löwe und Büffel. Im dritten Satz begegnen wir allerlei unheimlichen Reptilien, bevor das Werk fröhlich mit dem ‚Monkey Rock’ endet, in dem auch ein Affenruf vertont wird.Cette pièce en quatre mouvements est une oeuvre instrumentation variable quatre voix et percussions. Le titre parle de lui-même : dans African Scenes, le continent Noir tient le premier rôle. Le premier mouvement nous entraîne dans un safari plein d’émotions. Dans le deuxième nous observons les grands seigneurs de la savane : éléphant, rhinocéros, léopard, lion et buffl_x001A_e. Le climat du troisième mouvement donne un peu la chair de poule alors que nous rencontrons toutes sortes de reptiles dangereux. Heureusement, l’oeuvre s’achève avec le joyeux Monkey Rock, au cours duquel nous entendons même le cri d’un singe.Questo brano in quattro parti è pensato per strumentazione variabile a quattro voci e percussioni. Il titolo parla da solo: in African Scenes il continente nero riveste il ruolo principale. Il primo movimento vede i protagonisti iniziare un avventuroso safari. Nella seconda parte inizia la ricerca dei “Big-Fiveâ€: elefante, rinoceronte, leopardo, leone e bufalo. Il terzo movimento si caratterizza dall’inaspettato incontro con rettili rari, e precede il quarto e ultimo movimento. Monkey Rock, in stile più giocoso, rappresenta l’incontro con una simpatica e vivace scimmietta.

Pavel Haas was one of Leoš Janácek’s most gifted students. His String Quartet No. 2 “From the Monkey Mountains†is considered to be one of the first high points of his oeuvre.In this work, Haas combined elements of Janácek’s compositional technique with jazz, particularly in the fourth movement’s instrumentation for string quartet and percussion ad libitum. This version was premiered in Brno in 1926; later, the work was revised for string quartet only. For this edition Ondrej Pivoda has reconstructed the original version, bringing to light passages that were never published until now.This is the first critical edition of the work. It is based on all relevant sources, taking sketches of the final version of the score and contemporary performance material into account. It includes an extensive Foreword (Cz/Eng/Ger) as well as a Critical Commentary (Eng).

THE DREAMERS for horn, violin and piano is the sixth of a series of seven compositions named after Karen Blixen's collection of short stories Seven Gothic Tales. My musical gothic tales are written for very different ensembles - THE SUPPER AT ELSINORE is a saxophone quartet, THE OLD CHEVALIER is for bass trombone and piano, THE MONKEY is a chamber orchestra work - but they all share musical material in a criss-cross of contextual references reminiscent of Blixen's narrative complexity: Themes and motivs from one piece appear in others in new and surprising shapes and combinations. Karen Blixen's THE DREAMERS has the most complex narrative structure of all her seven gothic tales.The story is made up of three tales with different narrators, but with the same principal caracter in various disguises, all three imbedded within a fourth tale that serves as a framework for the entire short story. The main story line unravels the life of a famous opera diva who looses her voice during a terrible fire. Before this her life was perpetual bliss, and the tragedy drives her into assuming different personality guises in order to escape reality. Toward the end she is confronted with her true identity, and dies. THE DREAMERS isn't 'about' anything. The music is inspired by the artistic content of Blixen's short story - it's emotionalism, dramatic construction, atmosphere, period and settings - but unfolds in time and musical space in ways that are completely independent of the story's narrative progression... except one might say that the three players try their best to either catch or escape each other, and that when they finally meet, it happens abruptly, even tragically - and only barely provides a little consolation. Duration: approximately 15 minutes.

The Chinese Zodiac Suite is the culmination of a three-year project to honor the partnership of Old Dominion University with Minzu University of Beijing, a cooperative effort to bridge the cultures of both sides. In his new composition, Hailstork uses Western musical language to depict the 12 animal signs of the zodiac from Eastern folklore. The suite was performed by the Minzu University student orchestra at a meeting with the Board of Directors of the Confucius Institute at Old Dominion University (CIODU) in Beijing. Executive director of the CIODU, Dr. Qiu Jin Hailstork, prefaced the performance with, You can hear the sounds of rats scratching behind the walls; cows working hard in the fields; rabbits jumping up and down; a snake slithering through the grass; galloping horses and grazing sheep; a monkey swinging through the trees; the rooster, boss of the barnyard, crowing; the sleeping dog who wakes up and starts barking; and the poor pig, so sad because his life's only purpose is to be someone's dinner!.
