This is the biggest tune from the Spanish Bull ring also adopted in Mexico. Played by many many world famous trumpeters like Mendez, Paco, Arturo on Youtube with John Williams conducting. As you know, big florid solo with much embellishing on repeat. My idea to have opposing cornets at either side of the stage taking the solo then on 2nd time using technical brinkmanship to out-do each other on the embellishing. You need two very good soloists.

Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883785). Much used and abused in the world of film and TV demonic hype, now arranged for brass band and this may still be performed with a chorus if in concert with a choir. The Dies Irae really does not have an end as such so I have manufactured a solution to work as a concert item, and if with choir this is also easy to work out the scenario.

Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883776). Swing? A recent subject to hit the brass band discussion pages, how to and how to notate. I think to teach correctly would be the way. Many jazz charts for brass band have been notated in a variety of ways, a lot in the old dotted quaver/semiquaver fashion which either including a triplet bracket or not is confusing, misleading and plainly inaccurate. So, to a young band of the 9/14 years, my approach is to give them just 2 notes to start, the longer and the shorter i.e Doo-da! And build ever so slightly from there also giving them a chance to chant the title The Brass Band Boo-gie. So in a simple non-running around many notes, we have very few, but put together with other swing rhythms in the piece we get a swung piece, also inc, some quavers (8th’s) not to swing and play straight a reminder to change! The Brass Band Boogie.

Brass Ensemble - Digital Download SKU: A0.883782 Composed by Anon. Arranged by Phil Lawrence. 20th Century. Score and parts. 31 pages. Phillip Lawrence #4338685. Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883782). The original folk tune as picked up in the 1960's by Simon & Garfunkle, for Intermediate/Jnr. Brass Band. The tune is anon and indeed very old. In my title, the word Impressions is used to describe the harmonic style which is decidedly French of a Darius Mihaud style or even a light Messian. It should keep the young players on their toes in an aural sense and the tuning of a challenge, and perhaps feeling rather musically grown up delivering this in a concert?

Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883771). TIME MACHINEPremiered at the RNCM Festival of Brass by the Fairy band in 2006. A true modern challenge caught in a time and space interval continuum you will be on the edge of your seat throughout. Coming in at just on 5 mins will either make a great opening or end or encore. Starting as if in a true Star Trek idiom the space and silence will captivate the audience and fix their attention. Definitely for an advanced band, and the cornet section will hate me, HA!

Phillip Lawrence #4755867. Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883784). I was at college in the late 70’s (RNCM) and the brass dep fave groups were EWF (and Maynard), we formed a band, brass and rhythm section called Brass Injection where the members of the band arranged EWF/Maynard/Blood Sweat and Tears/Steele Dan and the like. (5 tpts, 4 troms, tuba, rhythm section). We colleges giggled, Manchester gigged, and after 4 years we ended up in Ronnie Scott’s. In The Stone seemed to be a must for brass band and difficult dictation and I don’t like to leave things out or simplify. So I’m starting an EWF collection with September and Fantasy to come soon. The semiquaver syncs will take some time to give it the relaxed feel especially in the bass dep. Here’s to the memory of Brass Injection and RNCM days.

Phillip Lawrence #4283561. Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883780). There’s no doubt that this is one of the saddest and yet beautiful works ever, The Urlicht from Mahler’s 2nd Symphony in C minor for alto voice and alternatively here for Flugel solo. I arranged this 14 years ago for a dear friend trumpeter of mine who passed before his time and a favourite of his.I discovered Mahler 2 at the age of 16 and like Kaplin, it has been a journey of understanding and study for me sifting through Mahler’s own handwritten score at times and through his letters at the time of composing which on and off was near 20 years! The recording you will here attached is by The Fairey Band (from my album with them It's Not Unusual worldofbrass) conducted by Frank Renton and sung by one of the most beautiful alto voices in this land, Margaret McDonald. I’ve no doubt in my mind this arrangement works 100% hence me including the recording itself. Alternatives within the score are Picc A tpt in lieu of Sop, the solo line flg instead of mezzo voice, vibraphone instead of harp.

Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883768). Why not Romeo & Juliet. In the Frank Wright days of orchestral transcriptions certain things already had to be in place with the work itself, key or transpose-ability, tesssitura, time length, and over all technical difficulty. All these had to be weighed out before pen hit paper. Out of the many overtures we know transcribed for brass band we know they work and are playable, hard in the days, but easier now.

Phillip Lawrence #3533105. Published by Phillip Lawrence (A0.883765). Up-Tight Stevie Wonder Trombone Trio.Yes, you read it right, a Stevie Wonder number as a trombone trio? Over ten years ago I did the famous Tom Jones number It’s Not Unusual which I knew would be a hit, and it was, and I’ve sold 100’s and its also been on a few CD albums too. I’m not quite sure how these flashes of ideas come to me to arrange, but this time I admit that its a more of a  jaw drop than It’s Not Unusual when I first told some friends.
