Cantate for Soprano/mixed choir and wind ensemble. Composed by Harrie Janssen. Full set. Duration 13 minutes. Molenaar Edition #013405080. Published by Molenaar Edition (ML.013405080).Songs of Liberation was written to commemorate the liberation of the Netherlands 70 years ago commissioned by the KMK/JWF under the direction of Major Tijmen Botma. The piece consists of three Valerian songs, dating from the 16th century. The piece depicts the resistance against the Spanish Ruler. The Cantata begins with dark and sombre undertones symbolising oppression but then allowing the Finale to shine with the liberation of light, and then Gelukkig Is Het Land (The Happy Country) brings the piece to a rousing finish.
