  Blue Tango - By Leroy Anderson

  At the height of his career in the mid-1930s, Leroy Anderson began arranging for Arthur Fiedler's Boston Pops Orchestra. Later, Fiedler encouraged him to write his own tunes for the Pops. His compositions, more than 50 in number, virtually define the sound of the contemporary American pops orchestra. Blue Tango was a #1 hit in 1951, juxtaposing the charismatic melody over a traditional tango pulse. The work captured the spirit of an era. This new edition was originally arranged by the composer for concert band and has been freshly re-engraved with a full score for the first time, permitting a uniformity of articulation throughout the work. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

  The Best of Leroy Anderson - Music by Leroy Anderson / arr. Douglas E. Wagner

  From the dean of American light music, this through-played medley is scored to be accessible for young and developing bands. It includes "Plink! Plank! Plunk!," "The Syncopated Clock," "Forgotten Dreams," "Blue Tango," "A Trumpeter's Lullaby," and "Fiddle-Faddle." With ample shifting of melodic responsibility that permits adequate rests for all, Leroy Anderson's unique style remains as young and fresh as the very day on which it was composed. (4:45)
