Description
SKU: A0.976714
Composed by Erik Satie. Arranged by Robert Myers. 20th Century. Score and parts. 36 pages. WheatMyer Music #4793377. Published by WheatMyer Music (A0.976714).Near the end of his career, Erik Satie wrote five pieces for piano designated as nocturnes. Contrary to most of his oeuvre, these were serious works lacking the satire, wit, and non-conformity Satie usually exhibited. Still, they are unmistakably Satie: soothing, floating, and very French. This work is a straightforward arrangement of Satie’s 4th nocturne, applying the color and dynamic ranges of the orchestra to his piano writing. It maintains the enchanting dance-like character of the original work while the musical lines move among and between the instrument families to exploit the variety of orchestral timbres. 4th NOCTURNE is suited for the concert hall among a program of impressionist or French music, an exploration of lesser known works, or wherever a charming and brief movement would be fitting.
Instrumentation: 2d1,1+1,2+1,2 2,2(Bb or C),3,1 Glock/Chimes, Perc Strings
