Puszta: Four Gipsy Dances - Movement IV By Jan Van der Roost

Performed by The Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra
Conducted by Jan Van der Roost

Puszta - Movement 4

This suite has been written in 1987, and consists of 4 separate dances which don't have any thematic correlation with each other. the "Puszta" is a vast prairie in Hungary where gipsies used to move around with their (wild) horses. The alternation of 'temperamental' and 'melancholic' themes and moods is typical for the gipsy music as are the tempo changings. The instrumentation is very bright and colourful, bringing all sections of the symphonic wind band to the fore.
