Composed by Giacomo Meyerbeer. Arranged by Rob Bushnell. 19th Century,Classical,Contest,Festival,Opera,Romantic Period. Brass Band. 83 pages. Rob Bushnell #1006203. Published by Rob Bushnell (A0.1425382).The Coronation March by the German composer Giacomo Meyerbeer comes from Act 4, Scene 2 of his grand opera, Le prophète (The Prophet). Set in the 16th century, it is based on the life of John of Leiden, Anabaptist leader and "King of Münster", with the libretto influenced by the works of Voltaire. The 5-act opera deals with love, revenge and tragedy. It was premiered by the Paris Opera at the Salle Le Peletier on 16 April 1849, with audience members including Chopin, Verdi, Delacroix, Charles Dickens and Berlioz.
During his life, Meyerbeer was a dominant figure in the world of opera, with Hector Berlioz saying of him 'he has not only the luck to be talented, but the talent to be lucky.'
This arrangement is for the UK-style brass band, with alternative parts for horns in F and bass-clef lower brass. A recording of the original composition can be found here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_M4DtUdQzhA.
