Ottavio Bariola was a famous Milanese organist in the late 16th century. Only a relatively small number of his works is known to survive, among them a collection of ricercares and canzonas. The present edition offers a selection of ten pieces of the latter collection. In agreement with their genre the compositions are strictly polyphonic in structure. In this edition the works are included in a four-part setting with consistent part-writing. Due to their volume and grade of difficulty the pieces are not meant for concert hall performance in the first place but for enriching the repertoire of church organists and lovers of early music.

“Transcribed by popular brass arranger, Robert King, this edition of Giovanni Gabrieli's Canzona per Sonare No. 4 from Canzoni per sonare con ogni sorte di stromenti provides an exciting performance piece for a large Brass Ensemble. Being one of the most influential musicians during the shift from the Renaissance to the Baroque era, it is no secret that the composer leant himself primarily to vocal and sacred works. However, his Canzona per Sonare No. 4 represents an important turn, not only in the composer's career, but in musical history. Composed in 1608, this piece helped pave the way to what would soon become the new Baroque concerto style, which remains popular to this day. King's arrangement of this historical work is indispensable for Brass Ensembles. &rdquo.

Over a period of four decades Jimmy Webb (b. 1946) has written hits for a number of singers including Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Linda Ronstadt. His songs are often epic in character and include By the Time I Get to Phoenix; Up, Up and Away; Didn’t We; Wichita Lineman and Galveston. MacArthur Park (1968) was unlike anything that had gone before it. Running at over 7 minutes, it is 2 or 3 times the length of most pop songs and has an extended orchestral interlude. Richard Harris’ seminal recording topped the music charts in Europe, while peaking at number two on the U.S. charts. Philip Sparke has made this excellentarrangement for fanfare band, which is sure to become a regular feature on your concert programme. MacArthur Park van Jimmy Webb, een nummer dat uitkwam in 1968, was niet te vergelijken met alles wat daarvoor was gemaakt.

Richard Harris’ originele opname stond bovenaan in de hitparades van Europa en op nummer 2 in de Verenigde Staten. Philip Sparke schreef een fantastisch arrangement dat zowel uw muzikantenals uw publiek zal aanspreken.Jimmy Webbs Musik kennt jeder: sei es als Musik zur Fernsehserie Emergency Room oder als einen der Hits von großen Stars wie Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, Linda Ronstadt und vielen anderen. Mit dem Popsong MacArthur Park gelang Webb ein Riesenhit im Jahr 1968. Das Lied über eine verlorene Liebe ist ungewöhnlich lang für einen Popsong und enthält ein ausgearbeitetes Orchester-Zwischenspiel. Grund genug für Philip Sparke, diesen Hit für Blasorchester zu bearbeiten.Pendant plus de quarante ans, Jimmy Webb (1946) a composé des chansons succès pour divers artistes tels que Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash et Linda Ronstadt.

Long before music videos were widespread entertainment, The Beatles were already dabbling with film. After A Hard Day’s Night, they went on to make their second movie, Help! in 1965. The title song, sharing the same title as the album, was originally a slow ballad. It was producer George Martin who upped the tempo, resulting in one of The Beatles’ biggest hits. André Waignein created an exciting arrangement for flexible instrumentation, making it accessible for ensembles large and small.Lang voor de tijd van de videoclips gebruikten de Beatles al het medium film. Na Yeah Yeah Yeah (A Hard Day’s Night) uit het jaar 1965 hadden ze met Help! hun tweede bioscoopfilm. De titelsong van het gelijktijdig gepubliceerde engelijknamige album was oorspronkelijk een langzame ballad. De producent George Martin bracht meer tempo in de song en zo ontstond een van de succesvolste hits ooit van ‘The Fab Four’. Met de variabele instrumentatie van de bewerkingvan André Waigneins is deze tijdloze hit nu voor vele blaasorkesten toegankelijk.Lange vor der Zeit der Musikvideos, bedienten sich die Beatles schon des Mediums Film und drehten nach Yeah Yeah Yeah (A Hard Day's Night) im Jahre 1965 mit Help! bereits ihren zweiten Kinofilm. Der Titelsong des parallel veröffentlichten gleichnamigen Albums war ursprünglich eine langsame Ballade. Der Produzent George Martin brachte mehr Tempo in den Song - und so entstand einer der erfolgreichsten Hits der Pilzköpfe, der in der variablen Instrumentierung von Andrew Watkin Bearbeitung nun zahlreichen Bläserbesetzungen zugänglich wurde.Les Beatles ont fait usage du moyen-métrage pour leur film A Hard Day’s Night bien avant l’arrivée des clips musicaux. Sorti en 1965, Help ! est leur second film musical. La chanson du même titre a été écrite tout d’abord sous la forme d’une ballade. Cependant, le producteur George Martin souhaitait un thème plus vif. Dès son entrée dans le hit-parade, la chanson remaniée se classe immédiatement en première place. André Waignein nous restitue un excellent arrangement pour ensemble instrumentation variable.Help! è il celebre brano dei Beatles pubblicato come singolo e nell’album omonimo del 1965 e prodotto, come quasi tutte le canzoni dei “Fab 4†da George Martin. Help! è anche la colonna sonora del film che porta lo stesso nome. André Waignein ci regala un ottimo arrangiamento per ensemble a strumentazione variabile.
