Arr. Ron Sebregts. Par JACKSON MICHAEL. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, died in Los Angeles on June 25th 2009. He can without any shadow of a doubt be compared with artists such as Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, and John Lennon - all of them musicians who will never die in the hearts of their fans. Why not keep the legend of Michael Jackson alive in your next concert with this hit from Michael Jackson’s repertoire arranged for Brass Band. / Niveau : 3 / Pop and rock / Recueil / Brass Band

Par BRITTEN BENJAMIN. King Arthur was the first of 28 scores Benjamin Britten (1913-1976) composed for radio between 1937 and 1947. It was an ambitious dramatisation of King Arthur' s life and times - part pageant, part play, part cantata - written by D.G. Bridson. This colourful suite incorporates the Introduction, a dramatic Wild Dance, some of the music underscoring the scenes for Galahad and The Holy Grail, and two vivid battle scenes, ending with The Final Battle and Apotheosis. King Arthur (scenes from a radio drama) for brass band should not be confused with a much longer orchestral suite which Paul Hindmarsh devised from the same source in 1995./ Répertoire / Brass Band

Par BOUTHIER CHRISTIAN. The energetic activities of three craftsmen at a local crafts market inspired the composer Christian Bouthier to write this work in three movements. The clockmaker gets many curious visitors at his stand. He patiently and proudly shows the precision work of his beautiful clocks and lets all of them tick - the small ones and large ones. The cooper (barrel-maker) skillfully puts together fine-looking, sturdy barrels of the best types of wood. From afar, you can hear the cooper hammering. In the final movement things are hectic at the blacksmith because the local horse-riding society has just arrived. Many horses are provided with new shoes. The experienced blacksmith hits thehorseshoes into the proper shape on his anvil; now the horses can spiritedly trot and gallop on the way back. A fascinating new addition to the concert band repertoire. / Niveau : 2 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Brass Band
