Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov completed this programmatic overture in the spring of 1888 and dedicated it to the memory of two of his friends who were also prolific Russian composers, Modest Mussorgsky and Alexander Borodin. He utilized original melodies and traditional melodies from liturgical chants of the Russian Orthodox Church. His brilliance as an orchestrator was showcased in this large work for full orchestra and included multiple time and key signatures in addition to various solos and cadenzas.This arrangement stays true to the original key signatures and includes all main melodic and harmonic voices and structure in a continuous performance that is accessible and challenging. Care should be shown to the changes in meter, tempo and key signatures along with techniques such as divisi and tremolo. Subdivision and counting can be reinforced throughout this piece. In addition, suggested fingerings have been given to help navigate chromatic and shifting portions of this arrangement. Enjoy performing this arrangement of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s masterpiece!

Rimsky-Korsakov composed his three greatest orchestral works over a short period: he completed Capriccio Espagnol in 1887, and he composed Russian Easter Overture in 1888, simultaneously with the symphonic suite Scheherazade. Russian Easter Overture is a magnificent overture in a single movement that was dedicated to the composers Borodin and Moussorgsky. Several hymns of the Russian Orthodox Church create a characteristic atmosphere. Arranger Tohru Takahashi has made the sound even more colourful by using several mallet percussion instruments.

In zijn transcriptie van de Russian Easter Overture van Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov is Takahahsi erin geslaagd de klank extra kleurrijk te maken door de toepassing van diverse mallet-instrumenten.

Rimski-Korsakow komponierte seine drei größten Orchesterwerke alle während der Jahre 1887 und 1888. Eines davon, die Russian Easter Overture ist eine strahlende Ouvertüre in einem Satz, die den Komponisten Borodin und Mussorgsky gewidmet wurde. Mehrere Hymnen aus der russisch-orthodoxen Kirche schaffen eine charakteristische Atmosphäre. Dem Arrangeur Tohru Takahashi gelang es, den Klang durch die Verwendung einiger Mallet-Instrumente noch farbenreicher zu gestalten.

Russian Easter Overture (Ouverture de La Grande P que russe) de Nikola Rimski-Korsakov est une œuvre solennelle qui développe des chants religieux de l’Église orthodoxe russe.

This concerto by the Russian master, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, is one of the most often performed works in the repertoire for trombonists. This edition is an edited version with some changes in the orchestration: a bass clarinet and a euphonium were added to replace some of the instruments in the original Russian military band such as the Bassetti in B-flat and the Corno basso. Concert for Trombone and Wind Ensemble is a great piece to feature a member of the ensemble or a guest soloist.
