According to music critic Mark Azarra, Leroy Anderson (1908-1975) was “one of the four best composers of instrumental music in the 20th century, next to George Gershwin, Aaron Copland and Charles Ives”. Many of his nostalgic songs such as Sleigh Ride and Blue Tango are firmly embedded in the American popular music culture. In 1945 at the request of Roger Voisin, the principal trumpeter of the Boston Pops Orchestra, Anderson wrote the Trumpeter’s Lullaby. This version for concert band by will be a sure winner.

Volgens muziekcriticus Mark Azarra was Leroy Anderson (1908-1975) “een van de vier beste componisten van instrumentale muziek in de twintigste eeuw, naast George Gershwin, Aaron Copland en Charles Ives”. Nostalgische songs van zijnhand, zoals als Sleigh Ride en Blue Tango, zijn stevig ingebed in de Amerikaanse lichtemuziekcultuur. Op verzoek van Roger Voisin, destijds eerste trompettist van het Boston Pops Orchestra, schreef Anderson in 1945het luchtige stuk Trumpeter’s Lullaby.

Trumpeter's Lullaby gehört seit seinem Entstehungsjahr 1950 zum unterhaltsamen Standardrepertoire vieler Trompetensolisten. Leroy Anderson komponierte den Titel auf Anregung von Roger Voisin, dem ersten Trompeter des Boston Symphony Orchestras. Dieser wünschte sich ein Solo, das sich vom lauten, triumphalen Klang der meisten Trompetensoli unterschieden sollte. So entstand die Idee zu diesem "Wiegenlied", das nun in einer Bearbeitung für Trompete und Blasorchester vorliegt.

Notre époque a bien oublié celle des musiques légères qui firent l'enchantement des auditeurs de radio peu après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Parmi elles, celles du compositeur américain Leroy Anderson (1908-1975). Descriptives et souvent étonnantes, ces oeuvres ont conservé la fraîcheur et le charme d’antan. Trumpeter’s Lullaby est une oeuvre aérienne et douce où la trompette se veut tendre et éthérée. L’accompagnement tisse un toile sonore soyeuse. Magique.

Ai nostri giorni, la musica leggera che nel primo dopoguerra fece la gioia di tanti radioascoltatori, sta cadendo nell’oblio. Tra i molti brani, spiccava la musica del compositore americano Leroy Anderson (1908-1975). Descrittive e spesso sorprendenti, le sue musiche hanno conservato la freschezza e lo charme di allora. Trumpeter’s Lullaby è un brano dolce dove la tromba vuole essere tenera ed eterea. Un brano magico anche grazie all’accompagnamento.
