Programme Note
Concertino for Six Trumpets and Timpani (1965) Martin Dalby
Written while Dalby was still a student for Peter White and his friends. Some of the work may well have been written in Rome. It is a companion piece to a number of earlier works for the same combination. The style reflects Dalby's fascination for the musical language of Skalkottas which interested him at the time. In particular, the brevity and nature of the movements are a direct parallel to Skalkottas' Ten Sketches for Strings.

Score and parts: also with Nigel Boddice - and RSAMD?
Computer disk of parts in C with Charles Ketteringham 041 776 5056
First Performance: RSAMD, 16 November 1993, directed by Nigel Boddice.
Dedication: For Peter White
Completion: London, 25 April 1965 (the composer's 23rd birthday)
Original score lost but reconstructed by Charles Ketteringham and Nigel Boddice from composer's original short score.
Dalby remembers that the piece was written early in 1965 for a group of former brass students at the Royal College of Music including Peter White, a trumpet student there. The music clearly shows the influence of Skalkottas's 10 Sketches for Strings which had excited Dalby when he encountered the work during his years in Italy (Sept 1963 to July 1965). Skalkottas's work was to have a profound influence on Dalby's later musical language and style.
Note: Original scoring for 2 trumpets in D, 4 trumpets in B flat and timpani (3 drums). 1st performance: 6 B flat trumpets (no mutes used) and timpani. Original score would have included mutes and these in time will be restored to the score and parts.
