Trombone octet - advanced

SKU: CY.CC2851

Composed by Ottorino Respighi. Arranged by Randall Malmstrom. 20th Century. Score and parts. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC2851).

Respighi completed the 4-movement set of Biblical episodes titled Church Windows in 1925. He actually composed the music first and then added the titles, dispelling any theory of specific religious fervor on his part, but rather creating a general mood with the music.

St. Michael the Archangel, the “battle-sc ene” 2nd movement is about 6 minutes in length.

Mr. Malmstrom has once again shown his talent for arranging large works for Trombone octet. It is appropriate for advanced performers.
