Offenbach-Cocktail (Souvenir Musical)
Description
Melodien aus "Orpheus in der Unterwelt", "Die schöne Helena", "Die Großherzogin von Gerolstein" und "Pariser Leben"
string quartet (double bass, flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn ad libitum)
Now then: hitch up your skirts and get your legs kicking - ready
for the cancan! Of course this dance has to be one of the
ingredients of an Offenbach Cocktail, along with other lively tunes
from his operettas "Orpheus in the Underworld", "La belle
Hélène", "The Grand Duchess of Gerolstein" and "La Vie
Parisienne".
Best of all: this arrangement can be mixed together like a
cocktail. One or more of the following instruments may be added to
the string quartet: flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn and/or
double bass.
So get playing!
