2016 Wingert-Jones Publications All Prices in U.S. Dollars & Subject to Revision Danzas Cubanas—Ignacio Cervantes/arr. Bourgeois. Ignacia Cervantes (1847 - 1905) was a Cuban pianist and composer achieved fame and recognition in his native country of Cuba. Cervantes is best known for his considerable influence in blending various aspects of creole musical culture with that of Cuban music for a totally unique and appealing sound tableau. Four of Cervantes' colorful dances are included in this brilliant setting for wind band. They are Danzas No. 1 and 2, the melancholy Soledad, the lively Picatazos, and a reprise of Soledad. In May of 2017 Colonel Bourgeois will premiere this arrangement when he directs Cuban musicians from the National Band in Havana and American musicians from four leading American Universities in the Inaugural Cuba/US Wind Band Symposium. 3017651 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .MA 90.00 3017652 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10.00 Goldberg Variations, BWV 988 (For Diverse Combinations of Instruments)— J.S. Bach/arr. Bourgeois. Also titled Aria With Diverse Variations, this monumental opus for solo piano was composed late in Bach's career. Few works have excited scholars, performers, writers, and audiences more than the Goldberg Variations have. The composition represents a unique blend of complexity, beauty, and massive scope. In this setting, the aria and all 30 variations are presented in different combinations of instruments making it the perfect vehicle for featuring various chamber ensembles within the larger performing group. It is a significant contribution to the list of serious repertoire for wind bands. This setting was performed prior to publication as part of the memorial service for Loren Maazel at his Castletown Festival Theater in Virginia in 2014. 3017641 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

In commenting about this march, Sousa is reported to have said "(it's) addressed to no particular nation, but to all of America's friends abroad." His words couldn't have been more prophetic as it has become the musical symbol of international friendship and goodwill. As director of the Marine Band, Col. John R. Bourgeois has performed this march on numerous historic occasions such as the 100th anniversary of the dedication of the Statue of Liberty and the International Parade of the Tall Ships (1986), the Marine Band's first overseas appearances in Ireland (1986) and Norway (1989), and their historic tour of the former Soviet Union (1990). It is only appropriate that Col. Bourgeois' edition of Sousa's Hands Across the Sea has been designated the official march of the inaugural Cuba/ United States Wind Band Symposium. 3017631 Band Set & Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Lamb is rightfully regarded as one of the "Big Three" composers of classic ragtime music, the other two being Scott Joplin and James Scott. Lamb, who was of Irish descent, was the only non-African American of the group. Unlike Joplin and Scott, Joseph Lamb's fame outlived the era of classic ragtime and he, along with Eubie Blake, were the only personalities from the original ragtime era that took part in the ragtime revival in the late 1950s. Ragtime Nightingale is described as a "heavy rag" and displays Lamb's individual style, delightful syncopations and jaunty spirit that appear so pleasingly throughout the piece.
