Hermance: Romantic Serenade for Band

Dos Acordes publishes this edition of Hermance, one of the works of the great Galician master Reveriano Soutullo, which urgently needed an edition so that the public could have access to one of the most beautiful compositions emerged from the muse of Soutullo in his creative youth. This work is written for band ‘as reflected in the only preserved manuscript catalogue of the composer’, and the first dated reference to it dates from 6th June 1909. It was performed in the Avenue by the Municipal Band of Vigo. Soutullo's connection with this group from Vigo, which had the first opportunity to perform a significant number of his compositions for band before they were published, is one of the previously unknown facts about the composer's biography. It was revealed by the researcher María Rosa Arija Soutullo, the composer's granddaughter, president of the Fundación Soutullo, and author of the prologue to the edition.
