13-part Brass Ensemble - advanced

SKU: CY.CC2779

Composed by Gioachino Rossini. Arranged by Elliot Chasanov. Italian 19th Century opera. Score and parts. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC2779).

Italian Girl in Algiers Overture is an operatic comedy from the early 18th century. The music is very characteristic of Rossini with lots of excitement and pure, elegant melodies. The opera was written in a very short time when the composer was only 21 years of age.

The overture begins slowly and quietly with sudden loud surprising outbursts of comedic effect.

Mr. Chasanov's arrangement for 13-part brass ensemble works perfectly for advanced performers, with each part having a fun and challenging time.

Trombone and Piano - advanced

SKU: CY.CC2718

Composed by Georges Bizet. Arranged by Ralph Sauer. 19th Century French. Solo part and Piano accompaniment. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC2718).

The Chants du Rhin (Songs of the Rhine), a cycle of six pieces, based on poems by Joseph Mery, were written in 1865, and Bizet performed two of them on 16 April 1866 at a soiree of the Beaujolais Philharmonic Society. The songs are grouped symmetrically around La bohemienne as the central piece, framed by two meditatively yearning pieces (in E and D flat major) and two vividly exuberant ones (similarly in E and D flat major), with L'aurore serving as an introduction.

In this cycle Bizet takes up the theme of the gypsy girl which had already entered European music in the operas The Bohemian Girl by the Irish composer Michael William Balfe and Verdi's Il trovatore, as well as in Franz Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies for piano. Bizet will return to it one year later in La jolie fille de Perth and ten years later in Carmen. The fourth piece Les confidences shows similarities in tonality, structure and motifs to the middle part of the third movement of Chopin's Sonata in B minor.

Trombone and Piano - advanced

SKU: CY.CC2724

Composed by Manuel de Falla. Arranged by Ralph Sauer. Spanish 20th Century. Solo part and Piano accompaniment. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC2724).

The Ritual Fire Dance by Manuel da Falla is taken from the ballet El amor brujo (The Bewitched Love) written in 1915. The work was influenced by a traditional dance used to worship the fire-god where the participants involved would jump or leap through fire.

Candela, a gypsy girl performs this Ritual Fire Dance causing a ghost to appear. She begins to dance with the ghost whirling faster and faster until the ghost is pulled into the fire, causing it to disappear.

This brilliant arrangement of about four and one half minutes is written for advanced performers.
