Trepak (Russian Dance):
Chinese Dance (with piccolo)
Arabian Dance
Dance of the Reed Flutes
Waltz of the Flowers:: Abridged (slightly)
(The original version of the Waltz of the Flowers as written for orchestra is quite long, and if transcribed fully would be bit of an endurance test for the wind player.
I have removed some of the reprises of the main theme, and also removed the opening harp arpeggio. All the original melodies are still there.
I have in certain sections omitted the relentless "oom pah pah" of the waltz., which can sound quite heavy on wind instruments.
I have attempted to give all the players places to breath, and have not transcribed it for "tutti" all the way through. (It is still quite a blow, but is now more manageable)
Some of the movements are available separately, or in different combinations.
Also available arranged for wind quintet.
This arrangement is for double wind quintet and double bass/tuba.
It will work without the double bass, as a stand alone wind dectet.
There are 2 clarinet parts..... one is noted Clarinet 1 & 2 (this part is for Bb and A clts, as in the original)
and the other 2 parts are noted Clarinet 1 & 2 in Bb (they are entirely in Bb)
