Product Description

Title: Port of Amsterdam Jacques Brel / Mort Shuman (arr. Wendolien Krul)
Instrumentation: Limited Band
Duration: ±3:15

Bring the raw emotion and storytelling of Jacques Brels iconic chanson to your concert stage with this powerful arrangement of Port of Amsterdam. Arranged by Wendolien Krul for limited band, this version stays true to the drama and lyricism of the original while making it accessible for smaller or less heavily instrumented ensembles.

The piece opens with a haunting maritime atmosphere and builds gradually to a sweeping climax, echoing the life and longing of sailors in Amsterdams harbor. Brels evocative melodies and Mort Shumans translation are honored in every bar, with attention to phrasing, color, and texture. This arrangement balances solo lines with rich ensemble passages, offering opportunities for musical storytelling across the band.

Perfect for ensembles looking to explore expressive repertoire outside the typical marches and medleys, Port of Amsterdam is a striking choice for Belgian-themed programs or as a poignant highlight during celebrations for 750 years of Amsterdam in 2025.

Let your musicians dive into the emotional depth of this chanson classiqueand let your audience sail away on a tide of nostalgia and drama.
