Turner: Casbah of Tetouan
A Tone Poem for 5 Horns
The Casbah of Tetouan was conceived during a visit to Morocco in the summer of 1988. The composer offers the following anecdote:
"As
we crossed the Straits of Gibraltar and first laid eyes on the North
African coast, I knew we were in store for an adventure! The city of
Tetouan was our destination; we were soon standing before its main
gates. As we entered the city, our senses were overrun by the many
exotic new sights, complementing the wild sounds and smells of the
bustling ancient city. After proceeding only a few feet past hobbled
live chickens, we found ourselves immersed completely in the endless,
tiny alleys of the Casbah. It was a labyrinth of tunnels and
passageways, lined with vendors and shops the size of walk-in closets.
Anything could be had, including copperware, sacks of spices and
grains, and silk. Street butchers displayed slaughtered lambs, goats
and pigs, and a snake charmer with his cobra unnerved the unwary
passerby. Somewhere around the urine-treated leather goods things began
to swim before my eyes. After I informed the guide that I was ill, a
young boy was sent to escort me to a quiet place. The boy knew every
secret passage and shortcut in the Casbah. He led me through even
tinier streets and tunnels, across nomad camps, and even through a
kitchen! We sailed through the back door of a mosque, and out the other
side. Finally we entered a large, dark and cool house, which seemed to
be some sort of palace. The boy led me to a back room and laid me down
upon a bed of large pillows. I passed out. I awoke thoroughly
disoriented. The first things I saw were six elaborately cloaked
elderly men, wildly discussing in Arabic what could possibly be wrong
with me, I heard exotic music and aromatic food assailed my senses.
After closer observation I discovered I was in a fancy restaurant,
being entertained by a belly dancer. Somehow my wife and brother found
me and we resumed our inspection of Tetouan. I still felt lightheaded
and rather doped by the "therapeutic" tea; my impressions of the city
were somewhat hallucinogenic."
The Casbah of Tetouan has been recorded on CD by the American Horn Quartet

Bach, J.S: Toccata and Fugue in D minor
Arranged by Kerry Turner
Born in 1685, no other composer has written more nor written more
beautifully for the organ as Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Born
into a family with a rich and long musical tradition , he was orphaned
at the age of 9 and raised for 6 years by his eldest brother before
entering the Choir of the Michaeliskirche in Lüneburg for 2 years. It
is here that he emerged as an organ virtuoso, laying the basis of his
musical career.
The Toccatta and Fugue in D Minor is, perhaps, one
of his most imposing and majestic works for organ. It has been
transcribed for a wide range of instrumentations, from solo guitar to
large orchestra (as in the Walt Disney Film "Fantasia"). Written in
1708 at the age of 23, the work is full of rich colors and sonorities,
characteristics that are masterfully exploited in this arrangement for
6 horns by Kerry Turner.
