Woodwind Ensemble Bass Clarinet,Contrabassoon,Flute,Oboe - Digital Download SKU: A0.889022 By Richard Byrnes. By Johannes Brahms. Arranged by Richard Byrnes. Romantic Period. 61 pages. Richard Byrnes #493984. Published by Richard Byrnes (A0.889022). Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) was a German composer who crafted his works using the techniques of musical counterpoint within traditional forms. Within those strictures he created many beautiful and powerful works. A romantic period ballade usually implies a poetic narrative and often composed without a specific form. Completed in 1893, Brahms has set this Ballade in ABA form and is a part of his later piano works displaying a forceful opening contrasted with a light middle section. It finishes quietly and, as some have posited, introspectively. This is an arrangement for Flute, 2 Oboes, 3 Clarinets, Bass Clarinet, 2 Bassoons, & Contrabassoon. In addition to many works by Brahms, we offer works by Bach, Debussy, Dvorák, Fauré, Glazounov, Glinka, Gottschalk, Granados, Griffes, Lotti, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Ravel, Richard Strauss, Turina, & Vierne.
