  • An International Expedition by Daniel Rager in Search of the Wind-Band
    In Search of the Wind-Band: An International Expedition By Daniel Rager In Search of the Wind-Band: An International Expedition is a new interactive E-book, exploring 16 countries. The first-of-a-kind, interactive encyclopedic e-book uses text, video, mp3 and pdf files to bring the history and development of the wind-band to life. The following pages contain a sample of Chapter 5: Denmark Wind Music More chapter samples of In Search of the Wind-Band: An International Expedition can be found at http://engagedscholarship.csuohio.edu/clmusic_bks/3/ Copyrighted Material CHAPTER 5: Denmark Wind Music Denmark is a Kingdom with a constitutional monarchy that is currently governed by Queen Margrethe II. It is ranked the happiest and least corrupt country in the world. The country has close historical and cultural ties with Sweden, Norway and Finland and the national language is Danish. Early music in Denmark transformed similarly to that of its neighboring Scandinavian countries. Military bands were responsible for providing communication in a number of ways. During the 16th and 17th centuries, warfare developed to be more complex than ever, putting the responsibility of signals (forward-attack, retreat, etc.) to the military band. Infantry units originally used fifes and drums for signaling and Cavalry used trumpets and kettledrums. Often, these units played on horseback and were used for ceremonial occasions or fanfares of a Royal nature. In the mid-16th century, the ‘shawm’ and ‘hautbois’ (double reed oboes) emerged as important military instruments that provided signals for troops in battle and entertainment for dancing.

    M U S I C F O R B R A S S B A N D The Journal of Phileas Fogg PETER GRAHAM Full Score Gramercy Music (UK) PO Box 41 • Cheadle Hulme • Cheshire SK8 5HF Tel:/Fax: + 44 (0) 161 486 1959 www.gramercymusic.com email: [email protected] Programme Note The novels by Jules Verne have been a rich source of inspiration for composers over the years. I have taken elements of his epic work Around the World in Eighty Days as the outline for a series of adventures recorded in an imaginary diary by the hero of the story, Phileas Fogg. Commencing with London bells in the background, the ensuing journey takes our hero by boat train to Paris (passing the Moulin Rouge en route), Russia (where he is chased by Cossacks), Vienna at night, Spain (where he is a spectator at a bull fght) before a fnal circumnavigation by sea (where we hear hints of foreign lands) brings him back to London with rich memories of his trip. The Journal of Phileas Fogg was commissioned by Dr Nicholas Childs for the National Children’s Brass Band of Great Britain. First performed by the NCBBGB, conducted by Dr Robert Childs, July 2012 About the Composer Born in Scotland, Peter Graham read music at Edinburgh and London Universities (Goldsmiths’ College). His music for brass and wind is performed across the globe, from China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea and Singapore in the Far East, across North and South America and in every major European country. Awards include the American Bandmasters Association/Ostwald Award for Original Composition for Symphonic Winds and the Iles Medal of the Worshipful Company of Musicians The Journal of Phileas Fogg – Peter Graham (duration c.
