Commissioned by the Brass Octet of Ensemble Liberte Wind Orchestra in Kawaguchi-City.The Spanish title means "Three Minstrels". As the title reflects, it is in three movements of various Spanish music in styles cheerful to mellow. Tpt. 2 has a flugelhorn part, but if not available, trumpet is acceptable. Trb. 3 could be covered by Euphonium, but considering the timbre, trombone is the better choice.
