Eb Tenor Horn Duet with Piano Accompaniment
Jacques Offenbach’s beautiful Barcarolle from Act II of Les Contes d’Hoffmann.
Duet parts played by Kevin Ackford
Score & Parts
A great opener for any section of band.
Written as the signature tune for Kevin’s weekly Brass Band radio programme of the same name.
Bb Cornet, Bb Flugelhorn, Bb Baritone (TC), Bb Trombone (TC) or Bb Euphonium (TC) with piano accompaniment
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.
This duet has long been associated as being a Euphonium duet, here Kevin has arranged this beautiful Duet from Bizet’s ‘The Pearl Fishers’ for two Eb Tenor Horns using the harp influence of the original in the accompaniment.
