Dreamsong - Philip Sparke - Euphonium and Brass Band |
||
|
Dreamsong was commissioned by Geir Ulseth and the Nidaros Brass Band from Trondheim, Norway. After a short introduction, the soloist introduces a rather nostalgic melody, accompanied by the lower brass parts. A fast central section is then played by the band, which leads to a climax. Eventually, the main melody played by the solo cornet and flugel horn returns, overlaid with an ornamented counter-melody from the soloist, who then closes the piece with a short cadenza.
A really beautiful new solo, very 'playable' from the pen of the band world's favourite composers and one who has contributed so many quality works for the euphonium over the years!
Please watch this excellent Youtube video that shows of the work perfectly!!
Please note this piece is available with euphonium with brass band accompaniment only.
