Wind of Withering
The Fate of a Seed
They are often very small and inconspicuous - the seeds of a plant. Some simply fall to the ground, others are carried away by animals or the wind. At the beginning, their fate is uncertain: they land on rocky ground, have too little light or too little water, the temperature is not right or the right nutrients are missing. Only when their journey takes them to a suitable place does the miracle begin and something great can grow from them.
It is the same with an idea...
Wind Of Withering was the winning work of the international VLAMO composition competition 2024 (Belgium). In contrast to the submitted version, there is a second flute part, which allows a performance without an oboe.

Where the Elves Live
Iceland - the land of elves and trolls - can amaze travelers with its impressive and diverse landscapes. This work opens majestically to reflect the rugged mountainous landscapes of the island. A large part of the country is also formed by sweeping regions with vast meadows covered with flowers. Perhaps a visitor of Iceland might be even able to witness the elves teasing one or two trolls.

One of our most popular and frequently performed pieces — a real audience favorite. It could be a great addition to your association’s repertoire!"

How to Train Your Dragon
The music from How to Train Your Dragon by composer John Powell is possibly the best film score in the last ten years. This beautiful animation film is sublimely supported by this music. Including the titles: This is Berk, The Downed Dragon, See You Tomorrow, Romantic Flight, Battling the Green Death and Coming Back Around, this is a spectacular selection for both Harmony and Fanfare Band. This will be a joy for the band to play!

Romeo and Juliet
New Compositions for Concertband No. 99
A New Chapter in a Timeless Love Story Thirty years after the release of the first part of Romeo and Juliet by Sergei Prokofiev, Johan de Meij presents a breathtaking sequel. This brand-new three-part suite for concert band is not a repetition of existing orchestral suites, but an original selection of ballet fragments that are particularly well-suited for a powerful and expressive arrangement.

With his unique arranging style and deep musical insight, De Meij captures the essence of Prokofiev’s masterpiece and translates it into the rich color palette of the concert band – compelling, dramatic, and refreshingly original.

Molenaar Edition is especially proud of its collaboration with Johan de Meij – an internationally acclaimed composer and arranger who has more than earned his place in the world of wind music.
