Par SPARKE PHILIP. Harlequin was commissioned by, and is dedicated to, euphonium virtuoso David Childs. The piece takes as its inspiration the happy and sad masks which symbolise the Commedia dell'Arte (which features Harlequin as one of its main characters) and comprises two movements, a slow modal ballad followed by a frenetic faster movement. A fantastic showpiece for euphonium and band. / Niveau : 5 / oeuvre solo et Orchestre / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie et Baryton ou Tuba
