La Cinquantaine
"La Cinquantaine" (French, IPA: /la sɛ̃.kɑ̃.tɛn/, transl. The Fiftieth Anniversary) is a piece of light music composed by Jean Gabriel-Marie around 1887. Described as an "air in the olden style" (French: Air dans le style ancien) in the original manuscript, it was originally written for cello with piano accompaniment, but has since been arranged for many other instruments.
"La Cinquantaine" is included in the Suzuki method Cello School, Volume 3, and is commonly performed by beginner Suzuki cello students.
A swing arrangement of the work by James "Jiggs" Noble, recorded in New York City in late 1940 or early 1941 by Woody Herman and his orchestra as "Golden Wedding", became a 1941 hit and a jazz standard. The record is notable for its extended (34-bar) drum solo by Frankie Carlson. Other jazz versions, including those by Adrian Rollini, Barry Wood, and Raymond Scott, use the title "The Girl With The Light Blue Hair".
