Benjamin Godard’s Berceuse de Jocelyn has been a favourite for many years especially on the slow melody contest circuit. This arrangement stays faithful to the original by Godard with the different rhythms in the first and second recitatives.
From Claudio Monteverdi’s opera L’incoronazione di Poppea. First performed in Venice during 1643, this duet has been popular on many charts compiled by Classic FM and has been described as “one of the most romantic duets of all time.”
Again, not a traditional march but a great opener. Stargazer is the third of Kevin’s space trilogy. Again, this piece shows all the hallmarks of Kevin’s writing with a great melody and plenty of energy with a little twist, as in the middle section the title is spelled out in the cornets using Morse code. A must for any band.
