A country meadow : Bb cornet, baritone or euphonium and piano / music by Gregory Michael Butcher.
Library shelf no. 788.96/BUT 1 [Not for loan]
Work Overview
A Country Meadow was commissioned for the 2003 New
Zealand National Band Championships as the 'Open Cornet Test
Piece'. It is a reasonably demanding piece and can be played
using the full range of the cornet, trumpet, baritone or
euphonium. The piano accompaniment is also written in a fairly
standard style, with a 7/8 middle section added for variety.
It was composed in 2002 while living at 'Mumble Cottage', a cosy
little European-styled farm house situated in the small country
town of Burrawang NSW Australia, in the Southern Highlands south
of Sydney.
