Par TORSKANGERPOLL IDAR. This piece was commissioned by Langhus Skolekorps junior band for their autumnal concert in 2022, where all ensembles of the band played jazz in one form. The piece is a sort of blues with a big focus on the bass line. This riff is very poignant during the whole item. The piece has a solo section which can be made open to accommodate more soloists, also with improvisational solos. The piece suits bands wanting to play a jazzy tune available for most players, and bands wanting to showcase one or more soloists. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Ensemble flexible à 4 parties

The Magical Witch. Par VANNEBO ELISABETH. “The Magical Witch» is a tango covered with Spider web. After an opening like a horror-movie (first in percussion and then winds), a traditional tango starts. The tango is interrupted by the main theme from “Jaws” and then a short sequence from the shower-scene from “Psycho”. The tango then moves on, only interrupted by short, scary features. The dynamics and articulation are very important to underpin the dramatic character of the composition. This tango can be a part of many kinds of concerts, but will be particulary suitable for a Halloween concert. This is a composition intended for beginners and young bands. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Ensemble flexible à 4 parties
