About this arrangement

Large brass ensemble (4 trumpets, 3 horns, 3 trombones, tuba) - Grade 4-5 SKU: ET.ENS153 Composed by Juan J. Colomer. Spanish Brass Repertoire. Contemporary. Score and parts. Composed 2003. Duration 12 minutes. Editions BIM #ENS153. Published by Editions BIM (ET.ENS153). ISBN 9790207003942.“Fierabrass" is inspired by the adventures of Don Quixote, and the title of the piece is taken from an episode in which he is given a placebo called the “Fierabras potion." In a play of words, I added the last “s" so as to make it a compound word from “Fiera (fierce)" and Brass. It has a free structure, divided in 3 movements which, in a very capricious way, emulate different moments in the life of our main character, such as Battle, Procession and Madness. Although it places him in different situations, it is loosely based on specific episodes of the book, in fact those situations are sometimes product of my own imagination, as I would envision Don Quixote being confronted to them. Juan J. Colomer, December 2010, Hollywood.
