About this arrangement

Brass Band - Grade 6 SKU: BT.DHP-1022732-030 Composed by Piet Swerts. Sovereign Series. Concert Piece. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2002. 48 pages. De Haske Publications #DHP 1022732-030. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-1022732-030). Chain was composed between June and August 2000 as the test piece for the 2002 European Brass Band Championship. The composer’s idea was to compose a one-movement piece - a work that starts mysteriously and develops in various directions. As his basic material, he chose a figure that is the abbreviation of the European Brass Band Championship: EBBC. This figure is developed in a chain of figures which gradually lead to the climax of the piece. Anlässlich der European Brass Band Championship schrieb der Komponist Piet Swerts dieses überaus originelle und variationsreiche Werk. Aufbauend auf die Figur EBBC, den Anfangsbuchstaben des Wettbewerbes, besteht das Werk aus einer Reihe von Figuren, die sich, dem Kettenprinzip folgend , durch das Stück hindurch zu einem Höhepunkt steigern, der zugleich auch den energischen Schluss bildet. So entstand ein abwechslungsreiches Stück, das trotz seiner vielen Variationen eine erkennbare Einheit bildet.
