"St Anne" Fugue in E-flat BWV 552 for quintet of clarinets by Johann Sebastian Bach Clarinet Quintet - Digital Sheet Music

By Johann Sebastian Bach

Johann Sebastian Bach’s five-voice triple fugue in E♭ major from BWV 552 became known as the “St. Anne” fugue due to its similarity to the hymn of the same name by William Croft. It is presented here for five clarinets. If an alto clarinet or basset horn is not available, a fourth B-flat clarinet part has also been included. The bass clarinet uses the extended low C range in the end section, but an 8va ossia is provided if an instrument with this range is not available. The arrangement can also be played as a larger clarinet ensemble or choir with the additional contra-alto and contrabass clarinet parts. Extended ranges are not necessary for the contra clarinets.Instrumentation:B-flat clarinet 1B-flat clarinet 2B-flat clarinet 3Alto clarinet/Basset Horn/B-flat clarinet 4Bass clarinetopt.E-flat contra-alto clarinetB-flat contrabass clarinetLength: 6-8 minutesDifficulty: Intermediate
