Three Movements For Improvising Oboe, Soprano Sax, Viola, Cello. Par LIEBMAN DAVID. It is natural as we age to contemplate the finality of passing on, if not personally, then certainly as an effect from others around you whom have left this space. Having to endure the passing of family and friends is of course very trying. This is especially true when the perception is that someone 'passed before …

Par LEDROIT FREDERIC. E´crire une Passion peut parai^tre absurde. Il faut bien admettre que les Passions de Bach, sont a` jamais parmi les plus grands monuments de la musique, elles restent incomparables. Je n’ai donc pas cherche´ a` rivaliser avec les mai^tres du passe´, j’ai simplement eu envie d’apporter mon propre commentaire musical et pour se faire, de changer la structure globale de cet or…

The Link between Present, Past and Future. Par DE HAAN JAN. Il y a quelques années, la fanfare a été déclarée patrimoine immatériel aux Pays-Bas et en Flandre (Belgique).

Par ANDRE MARC. The most distant is more familiar to us then the nearest. Primeval man, furthest in the past, is also the essential man. Anticipation, pointing furthest into the future, leads us in its way to the essential man. Thus the distant is connected with the most inner [Edgar Morin, Le vif du sujet, Paris 1968, S. 68]./ Répertoire / Clarinette Basse, Trombone, Alto, Violoncelle, Con
