A slow dreamy opening followed by a pop/rock finish. Great fun to play, the percussion section can let their hair down and audiences love it.
Takeda no Komoriuta (Lullaby of Takeda) is s beautiful Japanese folk song which tells the story of a young girl. The girl was forced to leave her family and village to go to work for a rich family on the other side of a mountain. As the girl worked carrying a baby on her back she thought about her family. Missing them she sang this song to comfort herself.
Playable by any standard of band this has proved to be very popular with audiences.
This Beautiful melody is a mixture of old and new. The solo starts in classical style before being brought up to date with the feel of a modern ballad then reverting to the classical style to finish.
A great addition to your Soprano Cornet player’s repertoire.
