Info

Thomas Berghoff wrote "Hornblowers Farewell" after watching a motion picture, which centered on the life of soldiers, friendship, loyalty and comradeship. Just imagine that moving moment when the bugler sounded taps – a call to bid farewell - in the final scene of the movie.

The military ceremonial of a tattoo is used in this piece. The solo trumpet introduces a melody which is adapted by the other instruments. Now the trumpet adds fanfare signals. A religious appearing middle part creates a very solemn atmosphere before the "Hornblowers Farewell" ends with solo trumpet.
To render a performance of this farewell impression especially effective, it is suggested to have the soloist play his solo backstage or from a balcony.

 



BASIC SOUND
From S to XXL – Music for any band instrumentation


"Basic Sound" is a series by RUNDEL Music Publications offering an attractive and diversified repertoire to bands at grade 2 or 3 level, of sizes S to XXL. "Basic Sound" allows for performances by groups with limited instrumentation. Minimun requirements are clearly bracketed in the score.

The smallest size (S) of "Basic Sound" is based on the following instruments:
one (1) flute, two (2) clarinets, one (1) alto-saxophone, two (2) trumpets, one (1) trombone, one (1) baritone/euphonium, one (1) tuba and percussion.
Each edition also includes a full set of parts (XXL). That way the conductor can adjust the pieces of the "Basic Sound" series to his band's instrumentation.
