L’ARLESIENNE SUITE No. 1 – Movement 2 – Menuetto
by Georges Bizet
Score 13 Pages 8 ½ x 14 (Legal)

Instrumentation: 2 Flutes, 2 Oboes, 3 Bb Clarinets, 1 Bass Clarinet, 2 Bassoons, 1 Soprano Sax, 1 Alto Sax, 1 Tenor Sax, 1 Baritone Sax, 2 Bb Trumpets, 2 French Horns, 3 Trombones, 1 Baritone TC/Euphonium BC, 1 Tuba, 1 String Bass, Timpani, Piano/Harp

The Menuetto in ¾ has two different themes. Energetic and full of crisp articulations, the first theme has a distinct question and answer format. The second theme contrasts with a flowing moving eighth note scaler flight by both upper woodwinds and also the harp. Meanwhile, a beautiful and lyrical sustained theme rides the wave. The movement is in an ABA form and the first theme reappears and concludes with a delicate pianissississimo. That’s 4p’s.

When ordered, an e-file will be sent to you with both score and parts. Because of the size of the score (Legal) a professionally spiral-bound printed score can be sent to you for an additional $ 50.00 and ordered separately.
