Titel / Title: Mar I Bel
Untertitel / Subtitle:
Komponist / Composer: Ferrer Ferran
Arrangeur / Arranger:
Instrumentation: Concert Band


Composition for wind band written in 1999. A work written to pay tribute to Mr. José Tarazona for all the help he gives to the Banda Primitiva de Paiporta of which Ferrer Ferran is its official conductor.

Mar i Bel takes its name from a play of words which uses Mr. Tarazona's wife's name, together with the sea (Mar, in Spanish) and the sun of the Spanish Land.

The composition offers a combination of typically Spanish rhythms. The work starts with the traditional Malagueña, a folk song from Málaga, clapping in the gipsy style and merriment accompanying the female singer whose voice is taken by the trumpet affording a great solo in the style of a Copla. Along the piece there appear short passages reminding the listener of the jotas from Aragón. The whole of the slow section is a songing the form of Albaes, a slow dance rhythm used by the cantaor (singer) to seduce his beloved one, typical from Valencia.

All this music is descriptive of the happiness and excitement of the people who live in this Spanish land drenched with sunlight and filled with the sound afforded by the blue sea.
