***"For interest sake, I would be curious to see some concert line-ups
for
a well balanced program from some of the listees. Say, 12 items. Let's
see
how many original pieces are selected for a program ... and how many
good
arrangements are included."
Not a bad idea. Maybe it will be useful to other band leaders to know
what people are programming, and what the audience response was/is to
it. Here is the program from the last Triangle Youth Brass Band concert
from a month ago:
Carnival Overture-Dvorak
La Virgen de la Macarena-Monterde/Mendez/Freeh trumpet solo
Galito- S. Lope
March to Scaffold- Berlioz tuba ensemble
March from Symphonic Metamorphosis-Hindemith
***intermission***
Resurgam-Ball
Nessun Dorma-Puccini cornet solo
Mountain Song-Spark
Finale from 4th Symphony-Tchaikovsky
March Op. 99 Prokofiev Encore
The audience was very enthusiastic about everything we played. I would
say that Resurgam(my favorite piece on the program) got the least
receptive response, while the Tchaik 4 finale got a standing ovation.
Our soloist, Mark Clodfelter got great responses, and the transcriptions
were well received as well. All in all, the audience liked the program.
I would like to know what other Youth bands perform, as well as what
programs that brass bands do that go over well.
