Adagio for Winds is similar in atmosphere to the well-known Canterbury Chorale (also by Jan Van der Roost), in that it has no exaggerated melodrama, but rather a melodically wide and expressive approach. The work is full of beautiful lyrical melodies and the warm harmony and the full orchestration give the audience and the band the chance to give their thoughts free reign in a contemplative atmosphere. Adagio is a wonderfully uplifting work suitable for concerts on all occasions and is certainly not one to be missed.

Dieses ruhige und feierliche Adagio ähnelt in seiner Stimmung dem bekannten Canterbury Chorale (ebenfalls von Jan Van der Roost) darin, dass es nicht übertrieben melodramatisch ist, sondern vielmehr melodische Weite und Ausdruckskraft aufweist. Es herrscht weder Traurigkeit noch Rebellion, sondern eine etwas resignierte Stimmung. Die lyrische Melodie, die warme Harmonik und die volle Orchestrierung bieten Publikum und Musikern die Gelegenheit, ihren Gedanken in einer besinnlichen Atmosphäre freien Lauf zu lassen.

Avec Adagio for Winds, les musiciens et le public ont la possibilité de laisser s’épanouir leur imagination dans une atmosphère contemplative. Le discours musical est serein et profond l’instar du célèbre Canterbury Chorale. La structure mélodique est fluide, ample et d’une grande puissance expressive. Les harmonies chatoyantes soulignent la richesse de l’orchestration.
