Sunday Bandstand 26 May 2024
Hello Brass Banders - The show this week's has a theme which I have called 'One hit wonders'. Many composers of classical music have written a lot of music throughout their musical life. This includes operas, symphonies and even songs but in some cases even though they have written a lot of music the public have not warmed to them.
But in some cases out of the music they have written whilst most of it has long been forgotten or rarely performed there is one of their compositions that touches the nerve of satisfaction and is the one piece of music and often only piece of music the listening public know.
Our photograph is Vittorio Monti who is known throughout the world for just one piece of music. It has been played far more times than anything else he wrote. It has been recorded countless times and arranged for many different instruments - Czardas - and we feature it on this week's show.
Enjoy the show...
