About
Old Tyme Songs
The two original tunes in this publication are patterned after two 19th century styles. Waltzes were in vogue in the mid 19th century when the tunes were labeled as being sentimental, hence the title “Sentimental Waltz”. Ragtime hit the charts at the very end of the 19th century and early 1900’s. The second movement is titled “Rambunctious Rag” and the third trombone part has some characteristic glissandos which trombones effectively do, but euphoniums can imitate. This trio is also listed under low brass ensemble, so treble clef parts are provided. Parts are well marked to indicate style, articulations, phrasing and dynamics which will give direction for rehearsing. Range is very playable, from high F to F below the staff. This trio is lots of fun to play and excellent for concert and contest.
