Swing with a Band - Trumpet

Par WILLIAMS JOHN / HVEEM DAVID (Arr.). «Cantina Band (or «Mad About Me») was written by John Williams in 1977 for the film Star Wars (later Star Wars IV: A New Hope). Even with quite a bit of the Star Wars music being quite well known, Cantina Band is literally in a style of its own. In the Star Wars-universe this style is called «jizz», Williams’ take on the more well-known genre «jazz». Williams was tasked by Star Wars-creator George Lucas to make music that sounded like «several creatures in a future century finding some 1930's Benny Goodman swing band music ... and how they might attempt to interpret it» and ended up with Cantina Band #1 and #2. Both numbers are played in the legendary scene taking place in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina where Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi gets in a fight causing even the band to stop playing. The band, which goes by the name Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, comes from the planet Clak'dor VII and specializes in jizz and the nearby, slightly older style of jatz. Performers of this music often go by the name 'jizz-wailers', and the Bith people from Clak'dor VII are especially well suited for jizz-wailing since they can hold every note as long as they want thanks to a unique respiratory system - something many perhaps would like to be able to do in the performance of this arrangement as well. The arrangement is relatively faithful to Williams' original version, but with a somewhat different ending. Although the woodwind section undoubtedly has the biggest technical challenges, an understanding of the musical style is the very key to making the arrangement sound good - and here all groups must work together. Playing lightly but quite articulated, and very precise, will be an absolute necessity to get the music drifting off all the way to Tatooine. In measure 113 there is a small improvised solo in either trombone or trumpet, but if you want the real authentic Cantina Band-sound this is of course done on a steel drum. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

Preludio and Andante in Swing for Flugel Horn or Trumpet and Concert Band-Raffaello Sanzio better known simply as Raphael was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. His paintings have been admired and imitated for centuries and his architectural works have had a considerable influence. He is seen as one of the finest painters in the history of Western art as well the supreme master of preliminary drawings for his numerous projects. Raphael’s works have always been appreciated and studied and are regarded as jewels of academic art.This composition is inspired by the great painter and his dazzling works but also the composer’s own brother Rafael or Rafa to who this piece is dedicated. With its entertaining Andante inSwing and peaceful Preludio we have a rich picture of a generous understanding and loving person wholly dedicated to music teaching particularly to younger children. Thanks to his many qualities the young pupils enrich their musical faculties and broaden their knowledge.Like a well chosen metaphor Raphael is dedicated to Rafa whose great achievement is in stimulating and educating the young - and not so young - through his remarkable work at the Allegro Centro Musical (Valencia Spain) with the aim of providing them with a solid musical training in order to become good musicians and well-adjusted people.
