Henry Nichols was killed in the First World War and the events surrounding this tragic event provide the subject matter for this concerto. Philip Harper’s evocative and dramatic concerto is a tribute to the great grandfather of Micah Parsons, the young euphonium player who commissioned the work from the composer. In chronological order, Peter Graham’s In League with Extra-ordinary Gentleman is dedicated to three euphonium playing family members, with literary stars titled in each of the three movements. Omaggio is the Italian word for homage or tribute, and as we consider the subject matter of the three solo concerti, this is undoubtedly the thread between them. Recording engineers: Daniel Lock, Melissa Dee Recording venue: Hade Edge Bandroom, Holmfirth In League with Extraordinary Gentlemen - Concerto for Euphonium - Peter Graham It features as it's centrepiece three original concerti for euphonium, two of them brand new (Philip Sparke and Philip Harper).Įuphonium Concerto No. Here is the brand new CD from Steven Mead, Omaggio, in a landmark recording with the 2022 British Open Champions, Brighouse and Rastrick.
**NEW** CD - Omaggio - Steven Mead and Brighouse and Rastrick Band - Cond. Renowned as a performer and composer of new, genre-busting music, Yamaha Performing Artist Rex Richardson has been called “One of the finest virtuosos of our time” (Brass Herald) “a standout soloist with the power, range and flexibility to rival Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw” (DownBeat), and “among the very best trumpet soloists in the world today” (Journal of the International Trumpet Guild).Ī professor at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) since 2002, he has served as International Tutor in Trumpet at England’s Royal Northern College of Music and at Austria’s JAM Music Lab University.Īlthough conceived for the trumpet, we believe that this method has many many outstanding benefits for Euphonium and Baritone players also. Ear training and mouthpiece buzzing, sound production, flexibility, articulation, fingers, range, improvisation, reading and transposition, repertoire, scales and arpeggios. A concept that reveals the meticulous and efficient daily work of one of the great virtuosos. Rex Richardson establishes the structure of a disciplined routine. A true recipe book covering all aspects of trumpet (brass) playing.
