This melodic hymn begins with a lyrical melody handled by various instrument groups. After a gradual build a first climax is reached in which the brass instruments give full vent to their glorious sound in jubilation. Now we hear a second theme resounding in the euphoniums which ushers in a moment of rest. Then the excitement gathers again building to a great tutti. The main theme is taken up once more sounding now as a kind of universal gratitude.

Four movements for trumpet and organ after Marc Chagall- Windows . Four movements for Trumpet and Organ after Marc Chagall. Fine art has always been a prominent source of inspiration for Petr Eben (1929-2007). Chagall's stained-glass windows for the synagogue in Jerusalem gave an impulse for the four movements for Trumpet and Organ commissioned by the city gallery in the West Bohemian town of Cheb. The author commented on his choice of instruments: 'The solemnity of the large panes of stained glass made me imagine the sound of the Organ and the intensity and brilliance of the sheaves of bright colours called for the shrill tone of the Trumpet.' Eben combines the two instruments in anoriginal manner: both parts retain a great deal of independence progressing in their own rhythmic patterns intersecting in places. The modal composition typical of Eben 's method is confronted here with atonality enabling the final unison of the two instruments to sound with a monumental effect. Since its origin in 1976 Windows has been one of the most frequently performed pieces by the composer. The individual movements of the cycle are named after colours: The Blue Window The Green Window The Red Window and The Golden Window. The Organ part was revised by Milan Slechta the Trumpet part by Ladislav Kozderka.

Elegy for Band-The initial idea was for a millennium piece which it is but rather than add to the many celebratory pieces that have understandably been written to salute the 3rd millennium Philip Sparke thought it would perhaps be appropriate to think about the aspects of life that are constantly with us (such as faith and philosophy) rather than the exciting changes that the year 2000 has undeniably wrought.
