Composed by Louise Farrenc. Arranged by Robert Debbaut. 19th Century,Romantic Period. 38 pages. ROBERT DEBBAUT #781763. Published by ROBERT DEBBAUT (A0.1182001).Louise Farrenc (1804-1875) was the only woman to hold a professorship at a European Conservatory (Paris) in the 19th Century. They would only allow her to teach piano, not composition, because she was undeniably a virtuoso pianist. During her lifetime she mainly composed for piano, but also wrote works for the orchestra, including three symphonies, and a great deal of mixed chamber music. She wrote no works for wind band of any kind, yet she lived in a golden age of especially French band music. As such, I felt a new generation of music students should hear the music of this incredibly talented composer who had the misfortunate of being born female in the 19th Century. This work is certainly characteristic of the Romantic Era and would make a lovely concert overture. the main sub ject of her variations is Martin Luther's "A Mighty Fortress is Our God." If you purchase this score (and like it), please write to me at debbaut@gmail.com, subject "Farrenc" and I will send you a copy of the wav file as well as a link to her original piano work (I;'ve not taken too many liberties). If you still like it, parts may be had for $100 via Venmo or personal check. Write to debbaut@gmail.com, subject "Farrenc.".
