In Camel Ride you will experience the magic of a colourful Arabic caravan as it slowly passes by. With this short work for a flexible ten part instrumentation, composer Jan de Haan has brilliantly reflected the atmosphere of the parade and carefully capturing the mysticism of the East. Camel Ride will make a great interlude in your concert performances. In Camel Ride horen we een karavaan voorbijtrekken. In rustige tred schrijdt de kleurige stoet voort. Componist Jan de Haan heeft met dit korte werk deze sfeer voortreffelijk weten te treffen.Der im Titel dieses Werkes genannte Kamelritt ist durchaus wörtlich zu nehmen: Die Musik beschreibt eine vorüber ziehende Karawane. Ruhig, mit gleichmäßigem Schritt, hört man die Wüstenschiffe inmitten eines bunten Menschengewimmels stetig voranschreiten. Jan de Haan ist es in diesem kurzen Werk für zehn Stimmen ausgezeichnet gelungen, die Atmosphäre dieser exotischen Szenerie in diesem Stück für eine zehnstimmig variable Besetzung einzufangen.Au rythme de la caravane de chameaux, bercés par le vent, nous effectuons une promenade musicale de petits villages en criques isolées, de dunes en plages du bout du monde, de cascades en marabouts éclatants de blancheur. Camel Ride : une touche insolite ! Una passeggiata musicale nel deserto in groppa ai cammelli: atmosfere esotiche e mozzafiato, accompagnati dal vento tra le dune fermandosi in splendide oasi. Camel Ride: un brano insolito!

Sahara is an exciting programmatic work for concert band that musically paints a picture of a fantastical desert crossing in three contrasting sections. The first section depicts a large caravan moving across the giant dunes. The second section describes a visit to a palace in a mystical oasis city. The third section brings the piece to an epic close as the caravan outruns a sandstorm to reach their final destination. Performance Notes You may use a set of congas in addition to or in lieu of the dumbek part to bring out that pitched drum sound. At m. 4, emphasize the accented quarter notes in the horns and euphonium. Measures 17-26, make sure that the sixteenth note marimba part is heard clearly. In measures 48-92, this entire middle section may be played in a rubato style at the director's discretion to achieve maximum musical expression. Be sure to emphasize the crescendo-decrescendo dynamics in this entire section. In measures 56-61, be sure that the syncopated flute and clarinet parts are heard clearly. and the flute and oboe are heard as well mm. 76-81. The descending eighth notes in the bass clarinet and tuba part should be brought out in mm. 76-81. Measures 109-112, make sure to bring out the trills in the Flute and oboe parts and sustain them all the way through the measure with a release immediately on beat 1 of the following measure. And finally, mm. 125-126, emphasize the F Horn and Alto Saxophone parts.Sahara is an exciting programmatic work for concert band that musically paints a picture of a fantastical desert crossing in three contrasting sections.

In a Persian Market was composed in 1920 by English composer Albert W. Ketèlby. It is a short tone poem that describes the hustle and bustle taking place at a busy, exotic Persian bazaar. Camel herders, beggars, a princess, jugglers, snake charmers and a myriad of others fill the musical scenes. The princess and her caravan eventually pass by and all is back to normal. Tohru Takahashi’s arrangement perfectly conveys the sights, sounds and smells of a Persian market.In a Persian Market, vom Engländer Albert W. Ketèlby im Jahre 1920 komponiert, ist ein kurzes Tongedicht über das bunte Treiben auf einem exotischen persischen Basar. Kameltreiber, Bettler, eine Prinzessin, Jongleure und Schlangenbeschwörer füllen die Szenerie, bevor die Karawane der Prinzessin sich in Bewegung setzt und Ruhe einkehrt. Diese Transkription für Blasorchester von Tohru Takahashi wird dem Original voll und ganz gerecht. In a Persian Market, composto nel 1920, è un breve poema con un titolo esotico; Ketèlbey ha composto numerose opere di questo genere negli anni, come per esempio: In a Monastery Garden, In a Chinese Temple Garden e In the Mystic Land of Egypt. La musica di In a Persian Market evoca immagini di viaggiatori sui cammelli, cacciatori di briganti e l’arrivo del principe. In questa trascrizione per banda di Tohru Takahashi, le atmosfere dell’opera originale sono rievocate magistralmente.
