Trombone quartet

SKU: P2.80075

Composed by Alejandro Guardia, Jr. Chamber music, 20th century. Published by Potenza Music (P2.80075).

Composer Alejandro Guardia, Jr. says, Escapades was written as a companion piece to my tuba quartet Excursions. Very much like Excursions, Escapades uses energetic tempos and ostinati. Escapades dives into the smoother, more streamlined experience of city life. The three movements take the musicians on a journey through stop and go rush hour traffic (I. The Daily Grind), an afternoon lull at work leading to falling asleep on the job (II. Daydreaming) and the realization that work is done for the day and it's time to go home again (III. Quittin' Time!).

The Glacier Express is a famous Swiss excursion train that has traveled through the Swiss countryside between Zermatt and St. Moritz since 1930. Larry Neeck's new composition is clearly descriptive of the train's journey and the spectacular scenery that passes throughout mountains, glaciers, lakes, tunnels and quaint Swiss villages. Lots of musical contrasts including a nice trumpet solo and interesting parts for every section! Ample percussion parts are sure to keep even a large herd of drummers both interested and involved. A wonderful piece for developing bands and an outstanding choice for festival or concert performances!

4 flutes

Overture. Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Sabine Gunther. This edition: Saddle-wire stitching. Sheet music. Score and parts. 32 pages. MDS (Music Distribution Services) #KECF 126. Published by MDS (Music Distribution Services) (M7.KECF-126).

Since the demise of a rich repertoire of arrangements of classic overtures, symphonies etc for flute ensemble, Edition Con Fuoco is continuously publishing a series to fill this need. Mozart's Musical excursion into the world of oriental Music was a work commissioned ny Emperor Joseph II. to vitalize the German Singspiel (opera) and was premiered in 1782 with great success. The oriental colour in the Abduction of the Seraglio is supported in this arangement for four flutes by simple percussion parts (ad lib.).
