For moderately advanced performers. The complete work is almost 17 minutes in length and can be a major work on your concert. Parts are supplied for bass and treble clef readers.

The Serenade, Op. 37 was conceived for Cello with Piano accompaniment, but later in life the composer scored the work for the solo instrument with orchestra. The Low Brass world knows Rimsky-Korsakov for his Trombone Concerto for Band. The Serenade has a very similar mood to the slow movement of the Concerto. It's beautiful lilting rhythm combined with a wonderful melody makes this work very worthwhile.
Mr. Sauer's arrangement brings a beautiful feel to this 4 minute work, which is appropriate for advanced performers.

Parts for Bass and Treble readers are supplied.

Faure is well known for his lyricism and haunting harmonies. In a way, he was the father of French Impressionist music.

The Serenade, Opus 98 was originally written for the great 20th century Cellist, Pablo Casals.

Mr. Ralph Sauer has kept the arrangement in the same key as the Cello. The work is playable by advanced performers.

This arrangement is another example of Mr. Sauer's excellent feel for the subtleties of the composer's style.
