This is the BRASS BAND version. A latin fantasy for Bb. cornet - duration 6.39
Your solo cornet player will revel in the challenge this extended feature presents. Adapted from the original arrangement for James Watson and orchestral brass ensemble, the piece is an extended Latin-style fantasy, based on Granada and Dark Eyes. A wide range of moods and styles, from virtuoso technique to slow, lyrical playing. An exciting and challenging concert piece.
Charivari, arranged by John Iveson, is available on the CD 'Fever Fantasy!' by Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band, conducted by John Hinckley.
Categories: Solos, SALVATIONIST MUSIC Composer: William Himes
This cornet solo was written for Peggy Thomas, principal cornet of the Chicago Staff Band of the Salvation Army. It is tightly constructed and opens with material based on bare fourths & fifths, the soloist almost "arguing" with the band in places. A brief quote from the Salvationist tune "Joy Because of You" fails to appease the band but eventually a cadenza quietens the mood before the soloist introduces "If You Want Joy" and at last the band succumbs, restating "Joy Because of You". Th soloist takes this up and has finally won his argument, turning the opening mood of agression into one of joy.
Duration 8.56
