Bizet composed L'Arlésienne as incidental music to Alphonse Daudet's play of the same name, usually translated as The Girl from Arles. It was first performed on 1 October 1872 at the Vaudeville Theatre (now a cinema known as the Gaumont Opéra).The incidental music has survived and flourished, however. It is most often heard in the form of two suites for orchestra.The finale of Suite No.2 the farandole, incorporates the theme of the March of the Kings once again. This is an expanded combination of numbers 21 and 23-24 of the original incidental music, in which the farandole appears first on its own. It is afterwards briefly combined with the march.It is arranged here for wind dectet and double bass.Alt Cls. in Bb are provided
