Band

'The Planets' remains one of the most memorable of 20th century orchestral works, including this rich and solemn hymn from the fourth movement, 'Jupiter, the Binger of Jollity.' Johan de Meij's adaptation for symphonic band is quite suitable for most any concert. An alternative ending and optional harp part are included.

The symphonic poem 'Loch Ness' consists of five through-composed impressions of this mysterious Scottish Lake: I)The Lake at Dawn, II)Slowly, III) Inverness, IV) Storm, and V) Conclusion.

See item 04000008 for a description.

The miniature suite Madurodam consists of eight short parts presenting a musical impression of the smallest town in The Netherlands.

Johan de Meij adapted two sections from one of Dvorak's earlier symphonies that are very suitable for wind band. In the Andante, the strong influence of Richard Wagner is still present, but in Alla Marcia we can recognize the 'real' Dvorak! Dur: 5:45 (Grade 4)
