Arranged by Richard Decker. 20th Century,Chamber,Contest,Festival,Historic,Multicultural,World. 50 pages. Charles Decker Music Press #796180. Published by Charles Decker Music Press (A0.1197023). This brass octet arrangement of Coleridge-Taylor's Sea Drift captures the subtle textures of the composer’s chromatic harmonies inspired in his original vocal octet setting of a poem by T. B. Aldrich. Born of an African father, Coleridge-Taylor was an early 20th century English composer and conductor who was an influential advocate for Black composers.  One of Coleridge-Taylor's rare A Cappella compositions for vocal SATB double choir here arranged for mixed brass octet, Sea Drift is infused with descriptive tone-color painting highlighting the tragic story of the merchant sailor who perishes in a stormy sea to the despair of his lover onshore. The arrangement is scored for eight brass with alternate parts - three B-flat trumpets with alternate C trumpet parts , two F horns with alternate flugelhorn parts, two trombones with an alternate horn part for trombone 1, and tuba. The recording is of the entire edition.“The Music of Black Composers Series is a welcome and timely addition to the brass repertoire. Interesting music, expertly arranged, fun to perform, and well received by audiences. Highly recommended!”   Wesley Nance, Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, Eastman School of Music“I was so pleased to see the great works arranged for brass ensemble by Charles Decker Music Press especially the Music of Black Composers’ Series.
