Hendrik Bouman on his Compositions
“Following the Philip Bate’s Memorial recital I gave with Simon Standage in the historic Holywell Music Room in Oxford, United Kingdom, I composed for him my Violon Concerto.
The initial proud and festive Allegro suggests the opening of a royal ceremony.
The Adagio evokes sleep whereby the violin solo represents the wandering spirit, and the accompaniment, playing an ostinato motive in unison, the body.
The gigue Finale wraps up the concerto with a compelling gesture.”

The 5 Baroque Concertos for Anna are the fruit of the sweet and persuasive requests from my beloved wife and muse Anna, that I would compose new concertos in the style we both love.
The 5 Baroque Concertos for Anna are a tribute to those masters who first ventured into the concerto genre.
One of the characteristic formal principles of the Baroque concerto to which I adhere in most movements, is the familiar Vivaldian ritornello format in which the orchestral opening recurs throughout a movement, in full, reduced, varied, or in different tonalities, thus emphasizing the contrast between the solo and tutti sections.
