SKU: A0.796846

Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Stephanie Daige. Romantic Period. 17 pages. Stephanie Daige #3072257. Published by Stephanie Daige (A0.796846).

There is little music on the planet as gorgeous and powerful as Beethoven's beautiful piano sonata no. 8 op. 13, the Pathetique Sonata.  Here, I have arranged the second movement, the Adagio Cantabile, for a woodwind quartet consisting of flute, oboe, clarinet, and bassoon.  The simple melody passes through each instrument in turn, and the ensemble creates a backdrop of passion and drama behind the singing melody.  If you like this piece on piano, you will love the richness and depth the sororities of the woodwinds bring to the music.  

Also available as a wind quintet.
