Description
Three of Handel’s best loved tunes arranged for flexible quartets or ensembles.
1. March from Scipio
2. Air from Rinaldo (Lascia ch’io pianga)
3. See the Conquering Hero (Thine be the Glory) from Judas Maccabeus
These arrangements are suitable for school orchestras and ensembles and more experienced players. The arrangements allow for a great deal of flexibility in presentation and will sound complete with as few as four players yet the scoring allows for expansion up to a full symphonic orchestra, concert band or brass band. Very suitable for brass or string quartets or mixed wind groups. The generous set of parts included in the download is listed below.
As with all music available from Opus 3 Music these arrangements have been well tried and tested in performance
