Broadwood from the singing of Mr. Henry Buretow (of Horsham, Sussex, England) - one of the very finest of all English folksingers. In my setting, the tune is heard twice. The first time (behind the platform), it typifies memories of long-past wars - vague, far-off, poetic. The second time (on the platform), it typifies war in the present - fast-moving, close at hand, debonair, drastic." - Percy Aldridge Grainger. This work can be played by a Brass Band or by the Brass Choir of either a Wind Band or Symphony Orchestra. In all cases, the minimum orchestration is 3 Trumpets, 4 Horns, 3 Trombones, Tuba, and Cymbal, though many optional instruments may be added.

13501ACEB38-A978-4580-AF74-01B6F4E2D7BDA568002Symphony No. 7 in E minorSymphony No. 7 was composed by Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) between 1904 and 1906. Often informally called "Song of the Night" due to the 2nd and 4th movements both being titled Nachtmusik (Night music), the composition was preceded by a long stretch of writer's block, which Mahler broke through suddenly upon returning from a trip to the Dolomites. The premiere took place on September 19, 1908, with the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra in Prague under the baton of Mahler. While the work left audiences confused at the time, the work is recognized today for its innovative use of orchestration.

13701B09CE4-0D40-46B0-9089-EE33E8AFC9D1A929991Violin Concerto No. 1, Op. 19Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953) began his Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major, Op. 19, as a concertino in 1915 but soon abandoned it to work on his opera The Gambler. He returned to the concerto in the summer of 1917. It premiered on October 18, 1923 at the Paris Opera with Marcel Darrieux playing the violin part and the Paris Opera Orchestra conducted by Serge Koussevitzky. Igor Stravinsky made his debut as conductor at the same concert, conducting the first performance of his own Octet for Wind Instruments. Despite the events leading to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and eventually the October Revolution, 1917 became Prokofiev's most productive year compositionally. Along with this concerto he completed the "Classical" Symphony, the Third and Fourth Piano Sonatas, and the Visions Fugitives for piano. He also began the cantata Seven, They Are Seven, based on Chaldean texts, and worked on the Third Piano Concerto. Nevertheless, Prokofiev continued his habit of incorporating previously composed sections in the violin concerto (something he would also do in the Third Piano Concerto). He composed the concerto's opening melody in 1915, during his love affair with Nina Mescherskaya. The remaining movements were partly inspired by a 1916 Saint Petersburg performance of Karol Szymanowski's Myths by Polish violinist Paul Kochanski. Movements: 1. Andantino, 2. Scherzo: Vivacissimo, 3. Moderato - Allegro moderato. Detailed instrumentation: Violin Solo: 2(2dPicc).2.2.2: 4.2.0.1. Timp.Perc(2).Hp: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).Violin and Piano
