Le Tombeau de Couperin (I-IV)
By Maurice Ravel / arr. Christoph Enzel 4 Saxophones SATBar Conductor Score & Parts Item: 01-ADV7427Share
Description
For Ravel, the year 1917 was marked by his mother's death and the death of many of his friends who lost their lives in World War I. Hence, the suite he finished that same year can be considered as an elegy. Due to its classical, sonatina-like character, this piece does not radiate an atmosphere of mourning, but rather a light, cool serenity. This arrangement for SATB saxophone quartet is faithful to the original orchestral version. Titles: I. Prélude * II. Forlane * III * Menuet * IV. Rigaudon.
