Programme notes: "Don Bosco" in music: The processional march by Josef Vancura The term "Don Bosco" is inextricably linked to the personality of Saint John Bosco, an important educational reformer and saint of the Roman Catholic Church. In music, this name has found a special resonance, especially through the processional march "Don Bosco" by Josef Vancura. The march, which is available in an arranged version for wind orchestra by Hans Kliment, not only offers musical enjoyment, but also carries a deeper symbolic meaning. Born in Italy in 1815, John Bosco dedicated his life to supporting disadvantaged young people. With the founding of the Salesians, he achieved remarkable successes in the field of education and social work. His values, based on love, hope and community, found their way into the musical arrangement of his name. Vancura's work reflects these ideals and evokes a festive atmosphere, often associated with celebrations and processions. The March of Josef Vancura Josef Vancura (1891-1952) was an important composer and arranger, best known for his works for wind orchestras. His march "Don Bosco" appears as a tribute to the saint and his commitment to youth. The march is characterized by a concise melody that radiates both joy and solemnity. The harmonization and rhythms show influences from folk music, creating an accessible and rousing mood. This composition is particularly appealing not only to musicians but also to listeners, as it creates a festive atmosphere that is perfect for processions. At the same time, the clear structure of the march allows for easy performance by wind orchestras, which promotes its dissemination and performance in various contexts. Hans Kliment's arrangement has added a new dimension to the march. Kliment, a renowned arranger, knew how to preserve the essence of Vancura's work while introducing new colors and nuances. His approach to arranging the march for wind orchestra allows for richer instrumentation and opens up a wider sonic spectrum for players and audiences. Kliment's ability to create dynamic contrasts and tonal variety is particularly noteworthy, making the work an experience for all the senses. Through his arrangement, the wind orchestra can emphasize the different moods of the piece and underline the festive atmosphere of the original. The processional march "Don Bosco" has not only a musical but also a social significance. It is often performed at celebrations within the Catholic community, especially on occasions related to youth and social work. The march acts as a link that embodies the values ​​of community, service and solidarity that Don Bosco embodied. In addition, the performance of the march promotes a sense of community among the musicians and the audience. It is a reminder that music is a universal language capable of connecting people and inspired by the teachings and life of Johann Bosco.
