piano concerto with brass band
on: April 06, 2005, 08:51:34 AM
Hello everyone!


Who knows some good concerto's for piano and brass band? I only played the Gershwin, and heard an interesting Stravinsky- recording (Toradze, what a performer!). Do you think there are any transcriptoins available of the standard piano concerto's?


Bye,


Ernie ;D

I did a wonderful arrangement of Shostakovich's second piano concerto with the Grimethorpe colliery band in the UK last year.  Arranged by their main conductor Elgar Howarth. Much fun! ;D

Great piece!  ;) Since a conductor in Holland asked me to look for a good transcription, I'm very interested too. Could you provide me with some e-mail - adress to contact this Howarth? I wonder if the material is available for rent.

Thanks for the tip,


Ernie

The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more
