Jan Koetsier (14 August 1911 in Amsterdam - 28 April 2006 in Munich) was a Dutch composer and conductor. In 1950, Koetsier became the first Kapellmeister of the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. As a composer, he wrote chamber music, and orchestral and choral works, as well as the opera Frans Hals. From 1966 to 1976, he taught conducting at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München.
A well-known example of his composition is Brass Symphony from 1979, which is divided into three movements and arranged for a brass dectet. In 1992, the Jan Koetsier Foundation was established by an endowment from the composer. One of the main responsibilities of the Foundation, which has been based at the Hochschule since 2001, is the organization of the biennial International Jan Koetsier Competition.
Program Notes:
1. Allegro - 5:40

The Brass Symphony op. 80 was commissioned by Philip Jones, premiered in Regensburg Feb. 21st, 1980, and recorded in 1981 on Focus on PJBE. by the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble. Today it has become a masterpiece of the international brass ensemble repertoire. Brass Symphony abounds in the lighthearted stuff that characterizes his music and still gives the players some glorious moments. The Larghetto, full of glissandos and muted effects, is memorable.

I wish my band had good players like this that I could play with without worrying about music being too hard.
