Fall 2018
Four orchestral arrangements for 19 players -- 2 flutes, alto flute, alto saxophone, euphonium, trumpet, 2 trombones, timpani, piano, 6 violins and 3 cellos.
- Mozart Wind Serenade in Bb Major, K. 361 (Rondo). Mozart wrote his tenth serenade (aka Gran Partita) for 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 basset horns, 4 horns, 2 bassoons, and double bass, none of which we had. So I arranged it for our wind/brass players, adding timpani and piano parts in the process.
- Tchaikovsky “Waltz” from the Serenade for String Orchestra, op. 48. Tchaikovsky composed his Serenade for full string orchestra (34 violins, 14 violas, 12 cellos, and 6 double basses), the larger the better according to him.
- Mozart Overture to Così fan tutte, K. 588. Mozart’s overture calls for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani, and strings (16 violins, 6 violas, 4 celli, 2 double basses).
- Berlioz “Marche Hongroise” from La Damnation de Faust. Berlioz scored his Hungarian March for piccolo, 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 trumpets, 2 cornets, 3 trombones, tuba, ophicleide, timpani, percussion, and strings (34 violins, 14 violas, 12 cellos, and 6 double basses.
