Tuba or bass trombone and piano - moderately advanced
SKU: CY.CC2847
Composed by Georges Bizet. Arranged by Ralph Sauer. French Romantic. Solo part and Piano accompaniment. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC2847).
The Intermezzo & Farandole are both from the 2nd L'Arlesienne Suite arranged by Guiraud in 1879, four years after Bizet's untimely death.
The Intermezzo is slow and powerful, whereas the Farandole, which incorporates the theme from the March of the Kings is fast and bouncy.
Mr. Sauer's arrangement is a joy to perform. The 6-minute suite of two movements is appropriate for moderately advanced performers and does not have any range or endurance challenges.
