Additional info/contents	In 1984, the tourist board of Corciano (Italy) launched a composition competition for wind orchestras. André WAignein composed "Alternances for Symphonic Band" for this event, a piece with which he won first prize in the competition. The beginning of the work is based on a very tonal foundation. The English horn (or alto saxophone) introduces a rich and warm theme, which is immediately taken up by the entire orchestra in a grandiose way. The development section that follows brings out all the elements of the orchestra to their full advantage. In the second movement, the English horn (or alto saxophone) comes to the fore again. A harmonic change gradually takes us back to the Allegro of the first movement. The musical development here is dominated by exuberance, virtuosity and rhythm. The work is dedicated to Jos Wauters, who was then conductor of the military orchestra of the Belgian Navy.
