Product Description

Music doesn't get more international than this. Frenchman Charles Borel-Clerc wrote it originally in 1905 as a French cafe song, "La Mattchiche," based on the Brazilian dance maxixa, predecessor to the samba, and in his subtitle he described it as a march based on Spanish themes. He repurposed it as a tune for a Spanish zarzuela (a little like an American musical play) and retitled it "La Sorella," Italian for "the sister." John Philip Sousa heard it when his band was on a European tour and recast it as a military-style American march. And this arrangement treats it as a tango, very Argentine.
This arrangement is for two trumpets, horn, baritone TC and tuba. If you'd like other instrumentation, I'm happy to accommodate. Contact me at wilcor@aol.com.
