Belly dancing has been part of Turkish and Middle Eastern custom for centuries. The music for this was originally played on a flute plus assorted percussion and was of an improvised nature. More recently, melodic responsibilities have been handed on to the violin or accordion. As with so many other countries, cultures collide and much of the musical language ends up as part of the band tradition too. In the Turkish tradition, belly-dancing was referred to as Baladi.

Description

Part of a collection of thirty original compositions and arrangements entitled Ba-Da-Boom Brass.

Inspired by the heritage and culture of world and historical brass-related styles.

We hope this repertoire will prompt a growing inquisitiveness for brass players of all ages and styles and was created with a brass club or gathering in mind.

Set at a moderate / training band standard, these pieces can be played by a flexi group of mixed brass instruments plus assorted optional percussion.

A minimum of 4 brass players is necessary, but the maximum is limitless.

All 4 brass voices have occasional divisi passages; in these instances more texture and harmonic colour is added.

In the instance of using just four brass players, playing just the top part in each case will provide a cohesive performance.

“Another impressive offering then from Superbrass, and a worthy successor to their excellent debut disc”

“All cleverly arranged and beautifully played, with excellent sonics.”

John Sunier

“Exploding onto the brass music scene with their debut album ‘Under the Spell of Spain’, the depth of versatility and virtuosity within the ranks of Superbrass has firmly secured it's place as one of the greatest large brass ensembles of all time”

Tom Davoren

“An absorbing selection of refined choices and inspirational highlights. Marvellous."

Keith Ames

“Under the Spell of Spain defies any category other than: superb.”
