"It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)" is a 1931 composition by Duke Ellington, with lyrics by Irving Mills, now accepted as a jazz standard, characterized by jazz historian Gunther Schuller as "now legendary", "a prophetic piece and a prophetic title". The music was written and arranged by Ellington in August 1931 during intermissions at Chicago's Lincoln Tavern and was first recorded by Ellington and his orchestra for Brunswick Records (Br 6265) on February 2, 1932. This arrangement for brass quintet includes the following parts: Bb Trumpet 1, Bb Trumpet 2, F Horn, Trombone and Tuba. It is suitable for repertoire, classroom and recital.

One of the best-loved gospel songs worldwide, ?How Great Thou Art? began as a nine-stanza hymn of praise, ?O Store Gud? (?O Great God?), written in 1885 by Swedish poet and lay minister Carl Gustav Boberg (1859?1940). In 1891 Boberg published the poem, accompanied by a Swedish folk melody, in Sanningsvittnet (Witness for the Truth), a weekly Christian journal of which he was editor. Today, the tune is commonly named ?Sanningsvittnet? in hymnals. From its Swedish origins, the text was translated to German in 1907, then to Russian in 1912. The Russian text became the basis for a translation to English by Stuart W. K. Hine (1899?1989), a British Methodist missionary who discovered it in 1931 while on mission in the Ukraine. Hine's work commonly contains four verses: the first two being a relatively close translation of stanzas by Boberg, and the latter two being original verses by Hine. Published in 1949, ?How Great Thou Art? gained great popularity in North America after George Beverly Shea began singing it in the Billy Graham evangelistic crusades in 1955. It has been named the #1 favorite hymn by respondents to various polls in both the United States and United Kingdom. �Copyright 2013 Todd Marchand / ConSpiritoMusic.com

La spettacolare colonna sonora di Jerry Goldsmith finalmente in una versione per Brass Quintet.

Il reboot di successo del 1999 della famosa serie degli anni '30 e 40' che inzi� con Boris Karloff nel 1931. Regia di Stephen Sommers con Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, John Hannah, Arnold Vosloo, Johanthan Hyde, Ken J. O'Connor. Produttore esecutivo Kevin Jarre, Sommers � l'autore anche di storia e sceneggiatura. Spesso al centro dell'attenzione la monumentale colonna sonora da 91 minuti di Jerry Goldsmith che fa utilizzo di una grande orchestra e coro, tra i pi� grandi da lui diretti al fine della sua carriera. Ci sono molti temi, brani d'azione in abbondanza. Per la felicit� dei fan di Goldsmith ovunque il popolare compositore compie un ritorno alla sua tradizione ritmica con enfasi su ostinati orchestrali aggressivi dominati da vere percussioni, ottoni bassi ed archi.
