Walking on Music (FB) - Roger Deronge |
||
|
In 2004 Roger Derongé wrote his Walking on Music for the 10th edition of the Church Concert of his own brass band ‘Bravoer’. To mark this occasion they choose a soloist that had some affinity with the history of the band. Belgian euphonium player Stef Pillaert had as a young boy been a member of the ‘Bravoer’ music camps and had been soloist with the band on a few occasions. Roger Derongé choose to showcase the lyrical side of the instrument and the accompaniment is very austere. In the brass band version the cornet players can even spend some time at the bar. The title explains the way every euphonium virtuoso would like to play this little gem, as easy as ‘walking on music…’ It is a work demanding quite a sustained lyrical approach from euphonium soloist but well worth the effort. Audiences will love this.
solo parts included: TC, BC, Bb BC
