William Walton: Music for Brass
Winwood Music is delighted to announce the publication of the brass music of Sir William Walton.
In association with Walton’s publisher, Oxford University Press, we are able to make available all of the composer’s original music for brass – some are available for the first time!
These newly edited editions draw on the scholarship of the OUP’s Walton Edition, and present the collected brass music in practical performing editions.

Recently released – Stunning New Euphonium Solo!
Antonio Bazzini (1818–97) was admired in his lifetime as both composer and virtuoso violinist by such luminaries as Schumann and Mendelssohn. Later he held a position at the Milan Conservatory, teaching the likes of Mascagni and Puccini, but he is remembered today almost exclusively for this violin showpiece which dates from 1852.
La
Ronde des Lutins Op. 25 is
described as a ‘scherzo fantastique’ and puts the soloist
through their paces using all manner of playing techniques
– ricochet bowings, double-stop tremolos, false harmonics
and so on all wrapped up in a neat rondo structure.
Eric Wilson’s name is
well known to euphonium players as he has made lots of
arrangements and transcriptions for the instrument. While
many of these have featured the mellifluous, melancholic
sounds at which the euphonium excels, this arrangement is
unashamedly for the virtuoso! It assumes facility with the
full range of the modern four-valve instrument and while
some alternatives are provided, the soloist should feel
free to adjust and adapt things to suit their own
preferences.
