Description
Concert Band - Grade 3
SKU: WE.GMM219SC
Composed by Gioachino Rossini. Arranged by Jim Mahaffey and Kenneth Singleton. Full score. Midwest Music #GMM219SC. Published by Midwest Music (WE.GMM219SC).Ottorino Respighi (1879-1936) based this ballet suite on the earlier opera music of Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868). The suite of three movements opens with a spirited Can-Can, in the traditional style with an accelerando to the end, followed by a beautiful and melodic Valse spotlighting the woodwind section. The suite concludes with a rousing and dynamic Galop. Mahaffey has done a great job here in bringing the joy of the ballet stage to the modern wind band in this authentic arrangemen.
