Leen Vandenhende - A Little Prayer (baritone horn and Guy Audenaert on tuba) - Evelyn Glennie
Here’s A Little Prayer…the final movie of this lockdown series.
As we are all allowed to go back to band, I will be focussing on other things from now on.
I very much enjoyed learning new skills like recording and mixing sound, filming and editing movies…and it also helped to stay connected with my instrument.
Thanks for welcoming this initiative so warmly and for your many views and likes
This is not the end of the channel, there will be more new videos but they will be posted less frequently.
I hope you are all safe and healthy, see you soon!
I adapted the music from the version described here:
"Originally composed for solo marimba, this popular version of A Little Prayer was made in 1998 following Evelyn Glennie's collaboration with Black Dyke Band during the recording of their Grammy nominated Reflected in Brass CD. Robert Childs, then principal euphonium with Black Dyke, requested Evelyn's permission to make the arrangement for his son, David." (ammusic.nl)

Переглядів 27 тис.3 роки тому
With His First Breath is the beautiful slow melody taken from the middle movement of the brilliant major work Breath of Souls. I love the music of Paul Lovatt-Cooper, not only because I find it very nice to listen to and play, but it also features the baritone horn in a very rewarding way. I don't doubt the composer got inspired by baritone star Katrina Marzella, when writing solo pieces for th...

Alone with my thoughts… is something we all experience during lockdown I guess. Some compare this situation with war… it's where this song is about, you can find the lyrics in the movie. For myself being alone with my thoughts pushed me in a direction of not neglecting my instrument and learning new skills like making a youtube video. I was lucky to hear the premiere of this piece (beautifully ...
Leen Vandenhende - Have Yourself a Merry little Christmas (baritone horn & piano)

Have yourself a Merry little Christmas 🤩 One especially for everyone who is not feeling comfortable in this festive period. This song (the original version of 1944) seems the perfect carol for Christmas 2020. As it goes: “Someday soon we all will be together, if the fates allow. Until then, we’ll have to muddle through somehow”... See you in a better 2021! 😘 After the Sam Smith cover
Leen Vandenhende - Variations on Happy Birthday (baritone horn)
Переглядів 6 тис.3 роки тому
This is a tribute to my very first teacher and mentor, Jan Kemland, for his 90th Birthday! He was the one who gave me the passion for music, the confidence to believe in myself as a musician and the power to value the joy of playing music! For 15 years, every week, I received lessons from him - for free at his home. Officially one hour, but it became regularly two hours and usually close to thr...

      Hi, thanks for your message and well done on choosing the baritone! 👍 In brass and fanfare band the baritone parts are normally written in treble clef as well as solo pieces. But I do read base clef and any transpositions if required f.e. from horn or trombone parts.

    In the US, it seems that "serious" music students are always steered from baritone to euphonium once they are big enough. But Leen makes a really good case for baritone. How does she get such a full rich sound while sitting cross-legged on the floor? As a 68 year old with the usual arthritic joints for my age, I'm in awe. What a stupendous duet, it blends magnificently.

    • @johnries5593
      @johnries5593 Рік тому

      My experience is that "serious" music students are steered away from both instruments in favor of the trombone or tuba on the theory that it is hard to make a living as a professional baritonist/euphonist. I play baritone, so the only reason why they let me into community orchestras is because I also play cello.

    • @douglasweber2401
      @douglasweber2401 Рік тому

      @@johnries5593 An apt observation. There are a bunch of standard jokes (of which I remember neither the set-ups nor the punch lines) about euphers and baritonists and they all have to do with the inability of both to make a living playing their instruments. In the US at least, perhaps what school band directors do is a kindness. There is a very finite number of college/university jobs for euphonium/baritone professors. And yes, playing cello does open more doors. Anyhow, Ms. Vandenhende's playing is spectacular and we can agree on that.

      Never give up! The Baritone Horn is not a very rewarding instrument. But if you get on and try to find your unique voice, it will pay off - in solo’s and ensemble. Try to listen to the obvious examples (Katrina Marzella, Mike Cavanagh, Bob Blackburn, Margie Sutherland, Sarah Lenton, Ashley Dixon, Susan Elizabeth Thomas… Nick Vermeiren and David Thornton (euph players who happen to be good baritone players as well) and record your own playing. This will help to become a star 🤩💪
