Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quintet - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.787485 Composed by Edvard Grieg. Arranged by Fran Griffin. 20th Century. 18 pages. Gryphon Music Australia #3536093. Published by Gryphon Music Australia (A0.787485). Here is an arrangement for five alto saxes of Grieg's very well known movement from his Peer Gynt suite, In the Hall of the Mountain King. It is suitable for young players who are enjoy ensemble playing. Sax 4 is slightly easier, but the other parts are of equal difficulty, and the work is shared around so that everyone gets to play the tune and also be the goblins and trolls. Nobody has to play the quaver passages alone, so this arrangement is a good confidence builder.It is a good introduction to playing in an ensemble whilst maintaining a constant accelerando without getting out of control.
