Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Ray Thompson. Classical,Holiday,Wedding. 9 pages. RayThompsonMusic #2999097. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.553505).The Five pieces of music which are now known as the "Suite for the Mechanical Organ" or the "Suite for Mechanical Clock" (WoO33) surfaced after Beethoven's death, bringing with them several very puzzling mysteries. Most challenging of them all was the instrument for which they were written. Piano, strings, harp and most other common instruments were instantly ruled out, building on the perplexing mystery and adding to the frustration. Eventually, Albert Kopfermann set forth a convincing argument that their strange scoring seemed a perfect fit for the Flötenuhr or Spielühr, a mechanical organ or clock. He observed that the notation in No. 1, in F, matched that in Mozart's K. 608 Fantasia (for Flötenuhr), the score of which Beethoven possessed. Other circumstantial factors pointed to the Flötenuhr as the instrument Beethoven designed these pieces for. None of these five pieces was published until the twentieth century, and, not surprisingly, all are rarely heard.
This is my arrangement of Mvt 3 Allegro for a brass trio of 3 trumpets.
It will work work equally well with any three similar treble clef brass instruments (i.e all 3 must be in the same key either Bb or Eb)
e.g 3 treble clef reading trombones/euphoniums/tubas/cornets or a mixture of cornet/euph/tbn/tuba.
Sim. a mix of 3 Eb horns/Eb tubas
I have simplified some of the semi quaver passages, and moved some of the notes to fit within the range of the instrument(s).
Fun for all 3 players.
Enjoy!!
