Par BULLA STEPHEN. Stephen Bulla strikes gold again with this accessible but jazzy Trombone section feature. There is plenty of rhythmic fun for everyone while the trombones get that important time out front. The old spiritual 'The Gospel Train' lends itself beautifully to a swing-jazz treatment and if there's anyone who knows how to bring the jazz idiom to the concert band setting it's Stephen Bu…

Par JOLIVET ANDRE. Pastoreles De Noë l by Andre Jolivet is a piece for Flute, Bassoon and the Harp lasting nearly 13 minutes.

However, the Pointer Sisters acquired international fame at…

Franz Schubert's scherzos were right at the beginning of a development that, in the course of the 19th century, resulted in the separation of the scherzo from the sonata and its emancipation as an independent piano piece. These traces become apparent in the three pieces compiled in this volume: the two popular Scherzos in B flat major and D flat major (D 593) and the Scherzo in D major (D 570) whi…
