Memories from Holmen. Composed by Jerker Johansson. Transcription. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2017. Norsk Noteservice #NNS9790661195559. Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790661195559).

The first theme played by the solo clarinet was written by Jerker Johansson the summer 1997, when he was composing in Swedish folk music style for an intended radio programme in which his father should participate reading poems in local dialect. Unfortunately, the project was discontinued. In the spring 2015 Mr. Johansson however started to work on the theme again, this time adding a song theme of broader character. Holmen is the name of the homestead where Mr. Johansson’s father Arne grew up. It is beautifully located in the parish of Skärv, situated east of Skara, one of the oldest towns in Sweden. At Holmen, the composer spent his childhood summers and his recollections are filledwith many bright moments and happy memories. The piece was premiered May 22, 2015 by the Göteborg Wind Orchestra conducted by the composer.
