Where Angels Fly was commissioned by VLAMO (Flemish Band Association). Kevin Houben wrote this work for the 2017 European Brass Band Championships in Ostend, Belgium. This is a very technical, powerful and virtuosic work with a rather fragile and soft introduction in which the main motif – derived from the Belgian composer Paul Gilson’s (1865-1942)
La Prière from
Le Retour au Pays – is developed and also includes Houben’s own musical signature ‘HBE(N)’.
Where Angels Fly is a challenging, impressive and virtuosic contest piece.
