Detailed Description

Concert Band - Grade 5

SKU: ML.013456080

Op. 20 - Portuguese Rhapsody no. 1 for Symphonic Band. Composed by Nelson Jesus. Full set. Duration 15 minutes, 30 seconds. Molenaar Edition #013456080. Published by Molenaar Edition (ML.013456080).

Built as a rhapsodic suite, in the style of the great band composers from the early XX century (also nationalists and proud of their folk music), this piece has 9 small connected parts in a free form, juxtaposing the popular themes with original ones, the folk flavours vs. abstract, chamber music, orchestral and solo parts. Like a symphonic poem, it describes some situations and quotations of Oporto. Here the word Porto refers both to the city and to the harbour, literally a sheltered place.
