This one is pure fun! Fast, furious, tuneful and dance-inducing! A great, lighthearted way to bring variety to a concert program.Polka dots are silly and fun; and in the opinion of the composer, so are polkas. In this new millennium, where kids’ lives are consumed by computers and the internet, it seemed appropriate to try and merge these ideas together. The fun, dance-like material and the use of extra techniques (such as col legno, pizzicato, strumming) lead the players and listeners into an enjoyable polka fit for the twenty-first century.

Buzzing Polka, composed in 1993, is one of the earliest compositions by László Dubrovay (*1943) for concert band, which has become ahuge success due to use of special timbres and effects which had been unexploited in the genre earlier. Already the title tells thatclassical musical values and surprising moments of special brass instrument techniques can be both found in the work. Every second in the striking character piece is made interesting by the excellent balance between the pillar-like harmonies enriched by distant overtones and horizontal melody formation. Performing Buzzing Polka is a great opportunity for conveying the message and values of the music of the 20th and 21st centuries through the contrast between classical melodies and new ways of instrumentation.
