Programme Note
This new release of Samuel Barber's First Essay (1937), arranged for band by Joseph Levey, includes newly discovered historical information of Barber's personal edits and revisions — including adding original music — to the arrangement prior to his approval for publication. Set in the original orchestral key, this edition has been performed by several of the most prestigious concert bands and deserves a serious look for mature groups.
