Fabella was commissioned by the �Koninklijke Harmonie Sint-Cecilia Kuringen� (the Royal Concert Band �St. Cecilia� Kuringen) on the occasion of its 100-year anniversary.The opening performance took place during the jubilee concert on 17 May 2008 under the direction of Jos Cuppens in the Hasselt Theatre.The composition tells the �story� of a long musical history and, with a series of impressions, memories and flashbacks, delves into the rich past of the Royal Concert Band �St. Cecilia� Kuringen.From the very beginning, the concert band has been under the direction of a Cuppens family descendant. This three-generation longalliance is reflected in the musical translation of the names �Cuppens� and �Kuringen�; both of these themes repeatedly appear as the leitmotiv throughout the composition.1908. An impressionist melody takes us on a trip through time and paints a provincial picture of Kuringen exactly as it was a century ago. Unsuspecting and full of expectation, the concert band stands on the edge of the 20th Century. A new era is upon us... Wars are fought, science discovers its power, and the arts branch off into a wide variety of forms...�Fabella� travels through this exciting time and, with a touch of nostalgia, already looks forward to the future...
