Sunday Bandstand 3 June 2018
As a young cornet player during the 1960s and 70s one of the popular overtures in our band's repertoire was Le Calife de Bagdad by François-Adrien Boieldieu (b: 16.12.1775 - d: 8.10.1834). I am sure many listeners to this show will be able to say the same, a bread and butter good overture for park engagements.
Le Calife de Bagdad is an opéra comique in one act by this French composer. It was first performed at the Opéra-Comique, Paris on 16 September 1800 and soon became highly popular throughout Europe. It was Boieldieu's first major triumph. One member of the audience who was less impressed was the noted composer Luigi Cherubini who reproached Boieldieu, "Aren't you ashamed of such a great success, and doing so little to deserve it?" Boieldieu immediately applied to his critic for lessons in compositional techniques.
The brass band arrangement was written by William Rimmer. On this week's show it is performed by the West Yorkshire based Drighlington Band.
Enjoy the show.....
