Il est regrettable de constater que le compositeur français Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) est essentiellement reconnu de nos jours comme un influent théoricien de la musique. Pourtant il fut considéré en son siècle comme un grand compositeur au style harmonique et mélodique très novateur.En 1725 suite à la venue à Paris de deux Indiens de La Louisiane Rameau écrivit une pièce pour clavecin qu’il intitula Les Sauvages . Plus tard il réutilisa cet air pour la scène finale de la quatrième entrée Les Sauvages ou La danse du grand calumet de la paix de son opéra-ballet Les Indes Galantes . Cette œuvre jouissait d’une popularité touteparticulière au XVIIIe siècle notamment en France.L’arrangement pour Orchestre d’Harmonie de Rob Wiffin se veut fidèle à la version originale tout en portant un regard nouveau sur cette œuvre. L’écriture est peu exigeante mais le style doit être très dansant pour une interprétation pleine de verve.

Ivan March of Gramophone says '. . .a bleak unease in the unrelenting energy of the first movement which becomes even more discomforting in the desolate start to the Lento. This leads to a forlorn suggestion of a funeral march which then ironically quickens in pace but is suddenly cut down; the drum strokes become menacingly powerful and the despairing mood of the movement's opening returns. . . and grips the listener in the music's pessimism. . .'

Shalom Chaverim is an ancient Hebrew (farewell)song which was originally sung at the end of a celebration or meeting. It was and is mostly sung as a round. Freely translated the words mean “Goodbye friends goodbye and see you again!”. The varying moods at a parting have been captured very well by Andreas Schulte in his arrangement ‘Variations on Shalom Chaverim’. The composer himself says about the song ‘Although the melody is in a minor key the overall atmosphere in the song is positive. one wishes each other all the best. Saying goodbye however also hurts. When you slow down the pace of the melody and add ‘blue notes’ in the harmonies this can be sensed immediately.’Schulte refers here to the first variation. The second variation is very intense with possibly even deeper-felt emotions. ‘Variations on Shalom Chaverim’ ends on a cheerful and positive note in fast tempo and with oriental elements in the melody: ‘L'hitra'ot Shalom’ (See you again and farewell!).
