Virginia Commonwealth University Professor Antonio J. García has taken Haydn?s ?London? Symphony as a point of departure for his London Town Fantasy for trombone and orchestra (or piano accompaniment), commissioned by the Charlottesville Symphony Society for the Charlottesville & University Symphony Orchestra (Virginia). CUSO Music Director Kate Tamarkin sought a piece that would ?showcase the trombone in a jazz ballad style and somehow reference the Haydn ?London? Symphony? that would follow it on the program, knowing that the first half of the concert would also include the Brahms ?Variations on a Theme of Joseph Haydn.? She and trombone soloist Nathan Dishman suggested the title ?London Town Fantasy,? envisioning a potential intersection with elements of George Gershwin?s ?A Foggy Day (In London Town),? which seemed apt given a scheduled trip of García?s to London during the compositional process.

Listeners familiar with Haydn's ?London? Symphony No. 104" will notice references starting at the first measure. And the violin part at the outset of the Symphony?s fourth movement, Allegro Spiritoso, offered the core of what became the melody to this Fantasy. The melody of the ?bridge? section of the tune is crafted from the first seven measures of the opening theme of Haydn?s first movement (Allegro).

The use of ?A Foggy Day? had to be more subtle, as copyright law must be observed, limiting the use of its actual melody within this piece. But Gershwin?s harmony actually is the harmonic basis under the melody of the Fantasy; and his devotees will recognize that when the soloist improvises medium-swing jazz with the orchestra, the chord progression is indeed entirely that of ?A Foggy Day.? (An optional written-out solo is provided.)

Note that the string section is not asked to play swing eighth-notes at any time. Their jazz-phrased passages are couched in even-eighth, syncopated double-timed-sixteenth, and triplet-eighth cross-rhythmed lines well-rooted in the jazz tradition. Winds and brass, however, have swing-eighth passages to perform (and some even-sixteenth lines).

The superb piano reduction makes the six-minute London Town Fantasy ideal for performances on student and professional recitals, and no improvisational skills are needed by the pianist. Available MIDI demonstration recordings of the duo and orchestral settings, with MIDI soloist or ?minus one,? make rehearsals easy and even provide the aural basis for your own potential ?virtual? performance.

Richard Galliano is a French accordionist of Italian heritage. After a long and intense period of study, at 14, in a search to expand his ideas on the accordion, he began listening to jazz and heard records by the trumpet player Clifford Brown. The second decisive meeting took place in 1980, with the Argentinean composer and bandoneonist Astor Piazzolla.
Astor strongly encouraged Richard to create the French ?New Musette?, as he himself had previously invented the Argentinean ?New Tango?.
Some later collaboration include Chet Baker, Eddy Louiss, Ron Carter, Wynton Marsalis, Charlie Haden,
Gary Burton, Michel Portal, Toots Thielemans and Kurt Elling.

This arrangement for C or Bb Trombone (or Euphonium) with piano of one of his most famous and performed pieces (with clear rhythmic references to the Piazzolla's "Libertango") is suitable for classroom, repertoire and recital.

How to Train Your Dragon is a 2010 American computer-animated action fantasy film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Paramount Pictures. John Powell composed an orchestral score, combining bombastic brass with loud percussion and soothing strings, while also using exotic Scottish and Irish tones with instruments like the penny whistle and bagpipes.

This arrangement for C or Bb Trombone (or Euphonium) with Piano is suitable for classroom, repertoire and recital.

The songs include: 1) Battle Hymn of the Republic, 2) God of Our Fathers and 3) America, the Beautiful... with a reprise of Battle Hym of the Republic. This arrangement works great for offertories, special music, concerts or any event where Patriotism for God and Country is emphasized. (15 pages including cover).

A mp3 PIANO ACCOMPANIMENT TRACK is also available listed as:

MEDLEY of PATRIOTISM (Piano Accompaniment for Trombone)

? The Bestiary or "The Procession of Orpheus" was written by Poulenc in 1919.

? Originally for voice and piano, with poems by Guillaume Apollinaire, the six short movements (about 5 minutes in length) are about the follow animals:

Dromedary Goat Grasshopper Dolphin Crayfish Carp

? This music is very suitable for young performers at the intermediate level and is a great way to introduce them to a major 20th century composer whose only other music for brass is the famous Trio for Trumpet, Horn and Trombone.

One of the most widely used traditional English Christmas carols of all time has now been freshly arranged with jazz harmonies and also utilizes Johann Pachelbel's "Canon In D" and scored for a Trombone solo with Piano accompaniment. Accessible and appropriate for any church or concert setting. An accompaniment track is also available.

Wagner composed five songs or lieder for voice and piano in 1857-58 based on poems by Mathilde Wesendonck, the wife of one of his patrons, and have thus been known as the Wesendonck Lieder over time. Three of them: Der Engel (The Angel), Schmerzen (Sorrows), and Träume (Dreams) have been beautifully arranged for solo Trombone (may be performed on Tenor or Bass Trombone) and 5-part Trombone Ensemble by Bob Burnham. They are very beautiful to listen to!

Of musical interest....Wagner inscribed the movement Träume as being a "study for Tristan and Isolde".

The three movements are about 9-minutes in length and this arrangement is appropriate for moderately advanced to advanced performers and will add a great deal of musical depth to your recital or concert.
