Original tekst

A Downland Suite composed by John Ireland. 1879-1962. For concert band. Piccolo, 1st Flute, 2nd Flute, 1st Oboe, 2nd Oboe. , Eb Clarinet. , 1st Bb Clarinet, 2nd Bb Clarinet, 3rd Bb Clarinet, Eb Alto Clarinet. , Bb Bass Clarinet, 1st Bassoon, 2nd Bassoon. , 1st Eb Alto Saxophone, 2nd Eb Alto Saxophone, Bb Tenor Saxophone, Eb Barit. Band Music. Grade 5. Score and parts. Duration 16. 30. Published by C. Alan Publications. CN.R10006. A Downland Suite is structured classically, revealing itself in the loose sonata form of the Prelude, the song-like Elegy, the Minuet, and a last movement which utilizes the Rondo. Tight thematic unity between movements gives the work its cohesion. The Elegy melody provides the kernel and the rising fourth interval is seminal. Ireland gives us our clue by repeating the Elegy theme in the last movement. In fact, the opening Rondo theme is virtually the Elegy. but played four times as fast. and the Minuet is the Elegy theme in inversion. A Downland Suite is one of a pair of works Ireland wrote for brass band. the other being Comedy Overture. in the 1930s. Both were commissioned by the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain, and this piece was completed in 1932. Ray Steadman-Allen's skillful arrangement was published in 1985. Interestingly, the composer himself freely adapted the Elegy and Minuet for String Orchestra and the adaptation of the outer movements for strings was undertaken some years later by Geoffrey Bush, one of Ireland's many eminent composer pupils. A Downland Suite is structured classically, revealing itself in the loose sonata form of the Prelude, the song-like Elegy, the Minuet with formal repeats and full Trio, and a last movement which utilizes the Rondo framework of a recurring theme reappearing in different keys. But within this classical form are unsettling elements. The tonal relationships between movements of the suite becomes more remote as the work progresses. The first movement is in C Minor, the second in Eb Major, the third in Bb Major. with a Trio in Bb Minor. and the last opens in G Minor and ends with blazing fanfares in G Major, a long way from the sombre mood of the opening. The phrase structure of the Minuet is sometimes unexpected. an 8-bar phrase opens, but Ireland mirrors it with a 9-bar phrase. In fact, throughout the work, the music reaches over bar-lines, phrases are extended, and strong beats displaced. Tight thematic unity between movements gives the work its cohesion. The Elegy melody provides the kernel and the rising fourth interval is seminal. Ireland gives us our clue by repeating the Elegy theme in the last movement. In fact, the opening Rondo theme is virtually the Elegy. but played four times as fast. and the Minuet is the Elegy theme in inversion. The interval of the fourth. sometimes manifested as a falling fifth. is emphasized throughout the first movement. Add to this the octave leaps, the pillars around which the Prelude is constructed, which find their way into the Rondo as the opening accompaniment, and the mature composer's high art of achieving unity within diversity of structure and style is revealed.

En Downland Suite er struktureret klassisk, afslører sig selv i løs sonateform af Prelude, sangen-lignende Elegy, menuet, og en sidste bevægelse, som udnytter Rondo. Tight tematisk enhed mellem bevægelserne giver værket dets sammenhængskraft. Den Elegy melodi giver kernen og den stigende fjerde interval er skelsættende. Irland giver os fingerpeg ved at gentage Elegy tema i den sidste bevægelse. Faktisk åbningen Rondo tema er næsten Elegy. men spillet fire gange så hurtigt. og Menuet er Elegy tema i inversion. En Downland Suite er en af ​​et par af værker Irland skrev for brass band. den anden er Comedy Overture. i 1930'erne. Begge blev bestilt af National Brass Band Championships i Storbritannien, og dette stykke blev afsluttet i 1932. Ray Steadman-Allen dygtige arrangement blev offentliggjort i 1985. Interessant, komponisten selv frit tilpasset Elegy og Menuet for String Orchestra og tilpasning af de ydre bevægelser for strygere blev foretaget nogle år senere af Geoffrey Bush, en af ​​Irlands mange eminente komponist elever. En Downland Suite er struktureret klassisk, afslører sig selv i løs sonateform af Prelude, sangen-lignende Elegy, menuet med formelle gentagelser og fuld Trio, og en sidste bevægelse, som udnytter Rondo rammerne af et tilbagevendende tema dukke op i forskellige tonearter. Men inden for denne klassiske form er foruroligende elementer. De tonale relationer mellem bevægelser af pakken bliver mere fjernt som arbejdet skrider frem. Den første bevægelse er i C Minor, den anden i Eb Major, den tredje i Bb Major. med en trio i Bb Minor. og den sidste åbner i G Minor og slutter med flammende fanfarer i G-dur, langt fra den dystre stemning af åbningen. Udtrykket struktur Minuet er undertiden uventet. en 8-bar sætning åbnes, men Irland spejler det med en 9-bar sætning. I virkeligheden, i hele arbejdet, musikken når over bar-linjer, er sætninger forlænget, og stærke beats fordrevne. Tight tematisk enhed mellem bevægelserne giver værket dets sammenhængskraft. Den Elegy melodi giver kernen og den stigende fjerde interval er skelsættende. Irland giver os fingerpeg ved at gentage Elegy tema i den sidste bevægelse. Faktisk åbningen Rondo tema er næsten Elegy. men spillet fire gange så hurtigt. og Menuet er Elegy tema i inversion. Intervallet af den fjerde. undertiden manifesteret som en faldende femte. er fremhævet i hele den første bevægelse. Hertil de oktav spring, søjlerne omkring hvilken Prelude er konstrueret, som finder vej ind i Rondo som åbningen akkompagnement, og den modne komponists høj kunst at opnå enhed i mangfoldighed struktur og stil er afsløret.
