Description

This is a simple, sweet little ditty for brass sextet with three percussion parts. It is, basically, a waltz. It’s in ternary form and the melody is harmonised in thirds (hence three by three by three)

The middle section is in a minor mode and is ripe for a touch of ‘hamming it up’ with each soloist squeezing every ounce of pathos out of the musical lines.

The final section is very similar to the beginning, but at a faster tempo. There’s a brief passing reference to my hero, the late Derek Bourgeois’ Serenade where the tune has a hemiola.

This piece is suitable for players of medium to advanced ability.

Parts supplied are:

Part 1 in Bb/Eb
Part 2 in Bb
Part 3 in Bb/Eb/F
Part 4 in Bb/Eb/F/C(Bass clef)
