Product Description

Solitario is a work written for a Brass Band Cornet section, Flugel Horn, and a percussionist. The works title, meaning lonely, refers to the lack of the rest of the band that would normally accompany such a group of players.

The piece begins with an atmospheric opening, with a reflective soprano cornet cadenza. A broken chord leads into the rest of the work, which explores the contrasts and similarities between modern chamber music and brass band conventions, culminating in a idiomatic build up of Cornet runs before winding down back into an atmospheric ending.

Solitario was written to explore the possibilities of a fully extended Cornet section, and to give players who would normally be part of a larger section a individual voice.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
