For Trumpet And Concert Band. Par SCHOONENBEEK KEES. Evergreen Concerto s’articule autour d’un premier mouvement constitué de deux thèmes contrastants - l’un résolu, l’autre lyriquement mélodieux - d’une fantaisie libre sur un menuet de Georg Friedrich Haendel et d’un troisième mouvement qui développe deux entités thématiques progressant vers un charmant cantabile. Evergreen Concerto se conclut par un retour alterné des deux thèmes initiaux. / Niveau : 3 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Trompette et Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par HANNICKEL MIKE. Cette composition humoristique est un hommage « vibrant » au triangle. Une seule note à jouer mais avec prestance, précision et sérieux. La carrière en dépend !

À vous de le découvrir ! / Niveau : 0.5 / Répertoire / Triangle et Concert Band ou Harmonie

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
