Pop For Trumpet 4 Band 4

Par WALLACE JOHN. Melodrama, sentimentality and sheer cockney cheek: the Victorian era was a period of extremes. With brass bands abounding in concert halls, bandstands and even street corners, first the cornet and then the trumpet flourished in this heady social and musical atmosphere. This varied collection of popular Victorian solos ranges from Sullivan's The Lost Chord to Koenig's Posthorn Gallop , with pieces idiomatically arranged for the intermediate trumpeter. So take a nostalgic trip, and recreate the spirit of a lost age. / Niveau : Assez Facile / Date parution : 2001-04-19/ Recueil / Trompette et Piano

“I wrote The Nonantum Bulgar in response to a request for a klezmer-style piece for middle school band. Since my local middle school (F. A. Day) is located in close proximity to Nonantum the oldest area of Newton MA Idecided to imagine the dedication of the Adams St. Shul our city's oldest synagogue which took place around a hundred years ago (December 15 1912). According to the Yiddish and English poster announcing the dedication theevent featured the a prominent Boston cantor and choir and a klezmer orchestra leading a 'Grand March' down Adams St. The piece tries to re-create what the klezmer band might have played on that occasion.A Bulgar is aRomanian Jewish Dance that was very popular among Jewish immigrants at the beginning of the twentieth century. The trumpet solo that opens the piece is a typical rubato prelude with the trumpet playing 'cantorial-style' Jewishornaments and phrasing in the manner of Eastern-European Jewish prayer leaders. Once the dance starts the piece is underscored with a Romanian Jewish 'Bulgaresca' rhythm heard in the trombone snare drum and tympani. The'bulgar' section of the piece begins with a typical klezmer band orchestration of the time featuring solo clarinet (played with a somewhat nasal tone) trumpet (or even more ideally cornet) trombone saxophone tuba andpercussion. The percussion section is prominently featured in the third strain. In the final round of the opening melody the band slows down in the manner of a Russian 'Grand March ' bringing the piece to a proud and majesticconclusion.” --Hankus Netsky

Par HANNICKEL MIKE. What a great way to feature that blossoming Trumpet soloist! The undeniably beautiful melody YE BANKS AND BRAES O’ BONNIE DOON is the foundation upon which this colorful and expressive Trumpet solo piece is crafted. A closer look at the orchestration of this classic Scottish air shows that the soloist is not the only one who gets to be expressive. Subtle contrapuntal motion and vividly contrasting colors resonate throughout. This arrangement is rich and deep. Let that soloist shine! / Niveau : 3 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Trompette et Concert Band ou Harmonie

For Trumpet and Band. Par SCHAFFER HEINRICH. Chanteur et pédagogue émérite, Heinrich Schäffer (1808-1874) a acquis une reconnaissance et une notoriété de son vivant. Il fut également chef de choeur du Hamburger Liedertafel, un choeur d’hommes hambourgeois. Ses oeuvres pour voix d’hommes ont fait de lui un homme très influent en Allemagne du Nord. Aujourd’hui, il ne reste que très peu de traces de sa notoriété. Seule la chanson Die Post im Walde (Le Postillon dans les bois), composée sur un texte d’Otto Friedrich Gruppe - est parvenue à résister aux vicissitudes du temps. Nombreux sont les choeurs d’hommes qui la chantent encore. L’attrait de cette chanson réside dans son caractère narratif. DiePost im Walde raconte l’histoire d’un postillon (cocher) qui la nuit, traverse la forêt au galop, sonne du cor et pense à ceux qu’il aime. / Niveau : 3 / Transcription / Répertoire / Trompette 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

Par BULLA STEPHEN. This solo for trumpet showcases both the fanfare-like qualities as well as the warmer, melodic sound of the instrument. The music is written in the A-B-A form in one continuous movement. A brief cadenza for the soloist provides an opportunity for expressive technique, following a lyrical middle section. / Niveau : 3 / Répertoire / Trompette et Concert Band ou Harmonie
