"O Summer Night from Don Pasquale" (Band). By Gaetano Donizetti, 1843. Arranger unknown. From "Squire's Cornet Band Olio No. 2." Cincinnati: A. Squire, 1872.

A popular tune found in many collections of the time, including Stephen Foster's Social Orchestra (1854), it serves, in this simple arrangement, as a good demonstration piece for the solo E-flat tenorhorn (sometimes called the E-flat alto). This so-called solo instrument was most often used melodically to double the E-flat soprano saxhorns or cornets at the octave below. It was, therefore, a popular melodic instrument but was rarely heard alone as it is here.
