Capriccio Espagnol Legal Use Requires Purchase
GRADE LEVEL— MEDIUM EASY Alfred’s Growing Band Series Capriccio Espagnol Nicolai Kimsky-Korsakov / Arr. by Mark Williams Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio Espagnol is known worldwide as one of the master- works of orchestration. It has been admired and studied by many composers including Tchaikovsky. It was written in 1887 at about the same time as his famous Scheherazade and Russian Easter Overture. This arrangement of the final sections of the work capture its exciting Spanish flavor and rhythms in a format that is very accessible to young bands. This piece can be conducted in one beat to the measure, or in three, or in a combination of the two. It is important that the tempo remain steady and not be allowed to bog down. The optimum tempo will be determined by how well the ensemble can play the fast eighth-note sec- tions at measures 44 and 103 . Generally, a faster tempo will contribute more to the energy and drive of the music.

David Brodbeck The Professor and the Sea Princess: Letters of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and Nadezhda Zabela-Vrubel EDITED BY MARINA FROLOVA-WALKER TRANSLATED BY JONATHAN WALKER I am still filled, my dear, dear friend, Filled with your visage, filled with you! . It is as if a light-winged angel Descended to converse with me. Leaving the angel at the threshold Of holy heaven, now alone, I gather some angelic feathers Shed by rainbow wings . —Apollon Maykov (1852), set by Rimsky-Korsakov as No. 4 of his Opus 50 songs and dedicated to Nadezhda Zabela-Vrubel “I am rather dry by nature,” confessed Rimsky-Korsakov in one of his letters.1 This is indeed the prevailing impression we are likely to draw from his biographies, or even from his own memoirs. We know so much about the externals of his life, and yet the inner man somehow eludes us, obscured by his professorial image: a kindly but reserved man, with a pos- itive outlook on life, dignified and of impeccable morals. The contrast with the wild biographies of Musorgsky and Tchaikovsky allows us to suppose that Rimsky-Korsakov was really rather ordinary, even a little dreary. 1. Maykov’s Russian original of the epigraph above is as follows: Yeshcho ya poln, o drug moy milïy, / Tvoim yavlen'yem, poln toboy!. ./ Kak budto angel legkokrïlïy / Sletal besedovat' so mnoy, / I, provodiv yego v preddver'ye svyatïkh nebes, ya bez nego / Sbirayu vïpavshiye per'ya / Iz krïl'yev raduzhnïkh yego… • 3 • For general queries, contact [email protected] © Copyright, Princeton University Press. -
RIMSKY-KORSAKOV: Pan Voyevoda • Sadko 8.553858
NAXOS NAXOS Rimsky-Korsakov: Rimsky-Korsakov, a naval officer, became a member of the group of Russian nationalist composers known as The Mighty Handful. His mastery of orchestration led to a strong influence on succeeding generations of composers such as Glazunov and Ravel. Orchestral Works: Though best known abroad for his orchestral music, Rimsky-Korsakov made a significant contribution to Russian opera. In the opera Pan Voyevoda he paid tribute to Chopin, with a DDD plot set in Poland, while the orchestral Sadko deals with a Russian legend. May Night treats a comic tale by Gogol and the opera Boyarïnya Vera Sheloga with its lullaby Hush Now, Hushaby, serves as a curtain- 8.553858 RIMSKY-KORSAKOV raiser to The Maid of Pskov.
