The aria or song is taken from the opera Rinaldo which first appeared in 1711 and was revised in 1733.
It is in ABA form and based on the sarabande rhythm which has the stress on the second beat of the three beats in the bar. When sung the Da Capo section would be an opportunity for the soloist to improvise and ornament the melody and this is option available to the organists although it is important to keep to the style and mood of the piece. This is very appropriate music for a solemn processional in an organ playing context. The use of three registrations is suggested and are indicated in the score. Rests have been indicated in all parts so that players have a clear understanding of the voicing. It is also a movement that invites interpretation and playing in different contexts. The arrangement is in the original key of F major although the tempo for the organ solo is more Larghetto than Largo which was the tempo indication in the opera. The video score plays back at a tempo of 66 half note or minim beats to the minute. Rests are indicated in the score enabling players to have a clear understanding of the voicing of the musical lines.
Moskowski has also arranged the aria for piano. Close

The tempo of the playback on the video score is 84 half note or minim beats to the minute.Players need to take notice of the accent signs marked in the score and keep their hands as light as possible.

Ignacio Cervantes was a Cuban composer born in the capital city of Havana in 1847.

This is a very popular piece of music that in many respects transcends idiom, style and it could be suggested culture. This improver level arrangement for brass quartet of trumpet, horn in f, trombone & euphonium or tuba is in common time while some of the accompanying chords and rhythmic shapes have been updated to give a more contemporary style. This familiar spiritual gained popularity during the 1960’s with the Civil Rights movement and since 1988 it has become associated with the English rugby team. This arrangement explores a gentle rock style whilst the realisation plays back at a tempo of 100 quarter note (crotchet) beats to the bar. The full score includes a piano short score and individual parts for the 4 brass instruments are appended to the full score. Close

This is a charming piece of music in 6/8 time and taken from one of Beethoven's Sonatinas for piano. In this arrangement the trumpet in Bb plays the melody whilst the trombone accompanies playing broken chords with the tuba providing an outline bass line. A tempo of 66 dotted quarter beats to the minute is recommended and as the music sounds in the key of F the part for the trumpet in Bb has been appropriately transposed. Close
