Par DEL BORGO ELLIOT. Interesting counterpoint brings the minor key 'Ballad of John Riley' to your band with style. Allowing for some good melodic playing from the tenor instruments (Trombone, F Horn, Tenor Saxophone) and later including the Bass Instruments in the melody, each section is important in this treatment of the somber folk tune. Great vehicle for studying phrasing and controlled perfor…

Par FARKAS FERENC. “I wrote this Christmas cantata from Köröshegy at the request of the Council of the Komitat Somogy.

Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). Early One Morning, a bittersweet lyric with a deceptively upbeat melody, tells of false promises and deception. It is here given a rather melancholic treatment, ending simply and sadly, as it began. You can hear the men promising to be ever faithful in bars 56–63, underneath the girls’ plaintive reproach. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offe…
