Composed by Joseph White. Arranged by Robert Debbaut. Classical,Contest,Festival,Latin,Multicultural,Romantic Period,World. Score and parts. 66 pages. ROBERT DEBBAUT #6363105. Published by ROBERT DEBBAUT (A0.939439).The talents of Afro-Cuban violinist Joseph White were recognized by the American pianist and composer Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869) who had performed with him on an early recital. Gottschalk raised money so he could go to Paris and study with Jean-Delphin Alard (1815-1888), one of the great violinists of his day. White won the Paris Conservatory’s "Premier Prix" in 1856 and received high accolades from such musical giants as Auber, Berlioz, Gounod, Rossini, and Saint-Saëns, as well as German violin virtuosi Ferdinand David and Joseph Joachim. He was a major force in the cultural life of Paris as well as Europe for the next twenty years, performing on his Stradivarius violin nicknamed "The Swansong." La Bella Cubana was among the original compositions s he performed on his recitals. This volume includes the new arrangement for chamber orchestra, the original transcribed score for two violins and piano, as well as extensive biographical and background information. For those seeking more information about the greatest violinist of whom you have NEVER heard, this is a great starting point. Adapted from a published lead sheet, this traditional carol is adapted for young string orchestra. If you purchase the score, please write to the arranger at debbaut@gmail.com, subject "White LBC" and I will send you a copy of the parts for $30 via Venmo or personal check.
