Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quartet Bassoon,Clarinet - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.914246 Composed by Giuseppe Verdi. Arranged by Craig Buying. Classical,Concert,Romantic Period,Standards,World. 17 pages. No Squeak Publishing #4413115. Published by No Squeak Publishing (A0.914246). Prestissimo, the third movement from Verdi's String Quartet in e minor is an excellent opener or closer for a program! The movement is approximately 3 minutes and is filled with excitement throughout. This arrangement is designed for mature players, as every part is demanding. That being said, this arrangement is very easily rehearsed and performed. Tutti sections of long eighth note passages from the original have been adapted for winds, so while challenging the parts are all playable and accessible. Other changes have been made throughout to allow for breathing. Early college students could perform this piece easily or even advanced high school students with proper guidance. This work is a real showcase for both the clarinets and bassoon! Audiences really enjoy this one as every member is equally showcased.
