Three Spanish Songs by Dmitri Schostakovitch ( out of 7 songs originally ) - arranged for Solo Trombone and Brass Ensemble by Brian Bindner.
Expatriated Spanish children brought with them these traditional Spanish songs and music of their native country, and through one of Shostakovich's friends (who was also a singer) he became acquainted with this music after the friend had recorded a Spanish singer and guitarist as he played the songs on a street corner. The text set to the tunes Shostakovich heard were taken from a volume of Spanish poems translated into Russian. Shostakovich wrote simple and quite conventional arrangements for these tunes to ensure that the tunes themselves would be the main focus.
Three of the songs are here arranged for Solo Trombone and Brass Ensemble. The songs are:
- Little Stars
- Farewell to Granada
- Ronda
