Product Details


Product Description

Full score and parts for orchestra. British composer Alice Mary Smith (1839-1884) was in her mid 20s when she wrote her first compositions for orchestra. It is likely Vivian Overture was written during this time, but there is no definitive timeline for the work. Despite the many challenges faced by a female composer in Victorian era Great Britain, Smiths compositions during this period received a high level of praise from the British press. Even with this early praise, Smith never received the long-term recognization her talents deserved. Due to a number of factors, the first of her orchestral compositions was not even published until the early 2000s. This edition is based entirely on Smiths original manuscript. It is highly edited including an update to modern instrumentation and the addition of missing/ inconsistent dynamics and articulations. As with all Zephyrwindmusic publications, parts come with an Unlimited Copy License, thus removing any potential copyright issues. Parts can be used in analog form printed on paper or uploaded as a digital part onto a reading device such as an iPad for performance. Parts can also be legally uploaded onto a website for players to download.
