Composed by Jacob de Haan
Section 3 - National Championships 2025
Duration: 9.35
This concert work, the latest of Jacob de Haan works based on American states, is a suite in three movements, based on a well-known folk tune from Arkansas.
In the course of this varied work the folk song appears in its complete form and in fragments, in major and in minor, as a ballad in a lyrical orchestration, as a blues, accompanied by a jazzy rhythm and at the end again in its pure form.
In the process, all instrumental groups of the brass band get their chance to shine!
