Raymond Premru was for many years the principal Bass Trombone of London's Philharmonia Orchestra as well as having been a member of the Philip Johnson Brass Ensemble, an active jazz musician, teacher and composer. He listedhisinfluences as Berg, Prokofiev, Bartok, Ives, jazz and Bach, though what emerged from his sensibility is diatonic, modernist and skillfully suited to whatever instrumentation he chose.The five movements which appear typeset inthisscore A Tale From Long Ago, Blues March, Of Knights And Castles, Le Bateau Sur Leman and Petite March are sometimes performed as a shortened version of the Divertimento to great effect.
