About this arrangement

Brass Band - Grade 3 SKU: BT.DHP-0840013-030 Composed by Jacob De Haan. Applause Series. Concert Piece. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 1984. 26 pages. De Haske Publications #DHP 0840013-030. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-0840013-030). This composition in two parts is one of the first successful works Jacob de Haan published for brass band. Somewhat under the influence of Ted Huggen’s Choral and Rock Out which was an overwhelming success at the time, the still very young Jacob de Haan wrote this composition. The first part (Air) exists of a choral melody with baroque grace notes, supported by a pop rhythm in the drums. The second part (Crazy Music) is a swinging bossa nova, in which various instrument groups present themselves in the continuously varying themes. The famous Black Dycke Mills Band contributed to the success of Crazy Music in the Air by regularly putting the piece on its tour programmes.
