‘Pater Noster’ (our Father) by the Russian composer Nikolai Kedrov is a short but deeply moving chorus of the most famous Christian prayer. The work is an example of the Russian vocal tradition: simple in design, but rich in sound and emotion.
Nikolaj Kedrov, founder of the famous Kedrov Vocal Quartet, emigrated to France after the Russian Revolution. ‘Pater Noster’ was composed around 1922 during his exile in Paris.
It is an intimate. personal and inner prayer rather than a liturgical proclamation.
A beautiful arrangement for the sound and colour of a wind orchestra.

commissioned by Windband St. Agnes Bunde on the occasion of the festive opening of the “Agnespoort” in Bunde (NL)
A short festive overture on the occasion of the festive opening of the “Agnespoort” in Bunde (NL). The work is based on two motifs that relate to the village of Bunde and its wind orchestra St. Agnes Bunde.
The work opens with a motif based on the song “Gans Bung” (which means “whole Bunde”) with a driving and powerful accompaniment.
The second motif is based on an “Andante Religioso”composed by one of the former conductors of Harmonie St. Agnes Bunde, Mr. August Hautvast.
After this short but sparkling opening, a more subdued section follows in which the musical link to the Patron Saint “St. Agnes” is made.
The overture ends with a resume of all motifs, resulting in a spectacular ending.
