Introduction and Caprice
Introduction and Caprice was commissioned by NIB on behalf of the "National Flugelhorn's Day" in 1994.
The piece contains two parts: the Introduction with a calm, melodic character and the Caprice. In this part aswell the soloist as the orchestra can show off their technical and musical skills. The middle section of the Caprice refers to the Introduction. The composer arranged the piece for Concertband in 2006.
Introduction and Caprice was first performed by the Frysk Fanfare Orkest with Jouke Hoekstra conducting and Andries de Haan on Flugelhorn.
