Cette page pour chœur soli orgue et orchestre a obtenu en 1994 le Prix de Composition Jacques Durand décerné par l'Académie des Beaux-Arts et en 2007 le second Prix de composition du Concours International de musique Sacrée de Monaco. Voici ce qu'en dit le compositeur: 'Cette œuvre a été composée entre 1992 et 1994. Elle est dédiée à ma mère. Pourquoi un De profundis plutôt qu'un Requiem? A la lecture du Psaume 129 il m'est apparu que la pieuse idée de profondeur concentrait en elle plus de force et de questionnement. En effet même si ce texte latin ne constitue ni un thème ni un programme musical il m'a semblé qu'il pouvait offrir - outre l'aspect religieux - une autre lecture. Une question fondamentale traverse la partition: 'Pourquoi avoir été créé pour disparaître un jour?'. C'est une question bien sûr qui n'a que le silence pour réponse et la foi comme chemin. Les sous-titres marquent des étapes sur ce chemin; ils symbolisent différentes attitudes de l'Homme face à la mort.'

Shortly after the land was reclaimed around 1500 a settlement was established at the location of the current village of Grijpskerk. This was the source of inspiration for this concert work together with a 13th-century Gregorian theme - the Dies Irae - which is used as a leitmotiv.After the introduction follow five variations in randon order - however each one of them carries us back to a striking moment in the history of Grijpskerk home of the Excelsior Christian Music Association (CMV) who commissioned this work on the occasion of its participation in theWMC in Kerkrade (the Netherlands) in 2013.

Based upon Meadowlands-The well-known folksong Meadowlands is the basis for this spectacular Russian fantasy. The cantabile opening is particularly nice for the woodwinds and all the parts are quite playable for bands at the easy level. The bold nature of the melody allows the brass to open up their sound a bit while the con spirito section offers interesting counterpoint and exciting rhythms. A general sense of the bleakness of a Russian landscape in winter and the strength and determination of the Russian people comes through.

Per Norgard 's Libra was originally a commission-work for Guitar but during the compositional process a vocal part was liberated from the musical material a part which could be provided with words from the Rudolf Steiner's poem 'Libra'. Gradually two choruses and ten movements were created around this part and texts from David's Psalms were added. Libra is one of the most characteristic works in the row of the composer's 'hierachic music' works: Slow and rapid versions of the same melodies series of accords are coupled in continuously new constellations but always based in harmony. Thisis only possible because of the hierachic nature of this music.

Quartetto Sereno - String Quartet No.21 Op.197 (op. posth.) by Vagn Holmboe. Holmboe's last quartet work which is unoffi­cially also String Quartet No. 21 was the last work he ever composed and was unfinished on his death in 1996. His pupil Per Norgard has finished the quartet and himself characterizes his contribution by saying that the score existed in an only partly completed form which could however be written out with only a few cases of doubt. With only two movements and a play­ing time of about nine minutes it is at its exist­ing length the shortest of Holmboe's stringquar­tets. The first movement takes the form of one long arch in a rocking triple time which constantly shifts among different tempo and pulse sensations. At the same time the rhythmic en­ergy increases until the movement in a faster Con moto tempo accelerates to a more flowing 12/8 time coloured both rhythmically by cross-­rhythms in duple time and timbrally by harmon­ics in the viola. In its middle section Con fuoco the movement culminates in both tempo and expression until it falls calm in brief recapitula­tions in reverse order of the first two sections. The rocking feeling continues in the second movement but now at a more extroverted level from the outset Allegro and pizzicato. The en­ergy builds up further as the mood intensifies to Con fuoco while all instruments go over to bowed playing but like the first movement this movement ends Adagio here however not as a gradual attenuation but through a sudden shift in tempo to a calm imitative passage before the movement slowly thins out to the almost inaudible through a last dense open sounding chord with a brief violin solo above it. The quartet is dedicated to Holmboe's wife MeLa May Holmboe and was given its first performance by the Kontra Quartet on 22nd March 1997 at the Carl Nielsen Academy of
