Pierre Gabaye: Recreation

Récréation (1958) by Pierre Gabaye is a piece for Brass Quartet including a Piano: Trumpet, Horn, Trombone and Piano. Ideal for concert and recitals, this very melodious and light-hearted work lasts 12’30 minutes.

The Piano part is as difficult as the Brasses, which are also really harmonious together. It is divided into three movements:
I. Allegretto
II. Largo
III. Presto

Pierre Gabaye (1930-2000) was a French musician who composed both Classical and Jazz music and won the Prix de Rome in 1956.
