Petit Quatour (Score and parts)
Description
arranged for wind octet by Sebastian Manz (2016)
based on the original version for saxophones (1935)
The clarinetist and winner of the ARD music competition, Sebastian Manz, presents, with this arrangement, a virtuosic and varied expansion of the repertoire for wind quartet. The work by the only 23-year-old Jean Françaix, fascinating with its irony, is ideal as a charming opening piece or as an effective encore. In this arrangement with its multi-faceted instrumentation, each instrument can distinguish itself in an effective and varied way.
