Par PRIMA LOUIS. Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing)' is a 1936 song, with music and lyrics by Louis Prima, who first recorded it with the New Orleans Gang in February that year. Fletcher Henderson recorded a vocal version in August 1936 One year later, on July 6, 1937, 'Sing, Sing, Sing' was recorded in Hollywood with Benny Goodman on clarinet; Gene Krupa on drums and Harry James in the trumpet section. The song was arranged by Jimmy Mundy. Unlike most big band arrangements of that era, limited in length to three minutes so that they could be recorded on one side of a standard 10-inch 78-rpm record, the version which Goodman’s band recorded was an extended work. The 1937 recording lasted 8 minutes and 43 seconds, and it took up both sides of a 12-inch 78. The recording of Goodman's 1938 Carnegie Hall live performance (with impromptu solos) took 12 minutes and 30 seconds. Feel free to extend the song with soloes if wanted! The 1937 Benny Goodman recording was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1982.[3] The music has been used in over 30 movies and in TV series as Gilmore Girls, The Sopranos and Everybody loves Raymond. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Ensemble Flexible à 5 Parties

Par APPERMONT BERT. Cette composition s’inspire de la vie du général de cavalerie allemand Hans Michael Elias von Obentraut (1574-1625). L’héroïsme de cet illustre militaire est exprimé dans un hymne majestueux. Hymn for a Hero peut être interprété en tant qu’oeuvre à part entière, mais aussi être intégré à la composition en quatre mouvements A Hero's Tale. En pratique, cela signifie que cette version flexible, après la fanfare d’ouverture, peut être interprétée en même temps que le premier mouvement (mesures 9-52). Ainsi, un ensemble de jeunes ou de débutants aura la possibilité de jouer avec un groupe d’adultes ou de musiciens avancés. Cette pièce est une commande de l’Harmonie des Jeunes de la ville de Seelze pour l’Obentrautstadt Seelze. / Date parution : 2022-09-20/ Répertoire / Ensemble Flexible à 5 Parties et Piano opt.
