Composed by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Arranged by Rob Bushnell. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, Broadway, Classical, Musical/Show, Opera, Romantic Period. Brass Band. 76 pages. Rob Bushnell #1230103. Published by Rob Bushnell (A0.1664107).Samuel Coleridge-Taylor is a British composer, who, from a young age, showed talent on the violin and entered the Royal College of Music, studying with Charles Villers Standford. His music become so popular that his Hiawatha trilogy was the second most performed choral piece (joint with Mendelssohn’s Elijah, and only beaten by Handel’s Messiah) with choral societies up and down the British Isles. In fact, Hiawatha was arranged by Charles Godfrey as a test-piece for the 1902 National Brass Band Championship of Great Britain, held at Crystal Palace.
Commissioned by the theatre impresario Herbert Beerbohm, Coleridge-Taylor composed incidental music for His Majesty’s Theatre London production of the Shakespeare play, Othello, in the West End, in 1909. In 1912, the play opened to the public, with a suite of five movements put together soon afterwards. The Dance, arranged here, makes a great concert opener.
This arrangement is for the UK-style brass band, with alternative parts for horns in F and bass-clef lower brass.
