Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quintet - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.955719 Composed by Henry Purcell. Arranged by Phil Thrift. Baroque,Contemporary. 19 pages. Phil Thrift #5314603. Published by Phil Thrift (A0.955719). H.P. Takes Five is a cheeky take on Henry Purcell’s famous trumpet tune. Instead of 4/4 time, it’s in 5/4, with a few 7/4 measures thrown in for a bit more fun! Purcell (1659–95) wrote much incidental music for plays and so-called semi-operas performed in London’s theaters, and often included a trumpet tune as a signal for the next act. A trumpet was the only instrument that could be heard above the noise of the audience! This is the wind quintet adaptation of the arrangement originally written for brass quintet. The lead moves around the parts and so this is indicated to make sure that the appropriate line remains prominent. Pay attention to all the tenuto and staccato marks. Make sure that the ff in measures 26, 42, 52, and at the end are as loud as you can get them without overblowing. The fluid lines of the lyrical middle section will test your powers of concentration.

Andrew Middleton #1031659. Published by Andrew Middleton (A0.1452336). Take Five Maurice, is a tongue and cheek arrangement that combines the orchestral forces and the gradual increasing instrument forces of Ravel’s Bolero, with the melodies and chordal pattern of Take Five by Paul Desmond. Following the instrumental structure of Bolero, the piece begins with softer timbres of the woodwinds in the same manner Ravel uses the orchestra, gradually becoming much more raucous. The finally of the piece follows a similar key change to heighten the climax of the music as well as a similar trombone glissando motif found in Bolero as well the jazz styles Paul Desmond would have played.The piece is scored for: Piccolo, 2 flute, 2 oboes, cor anglais, 2 clarinets in B flat, Bass Clarinet in B flat, 2 bassoons, contrabassoon, soprano saxophone, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone 4 horns in F, 3 trumpets in B flat, 2 Trombones, Bass Trombone, Tuba Timpani, Cymbals, Tam-tam, drum kit, harp, celesta and strings.For more updates on new arrangements follow my Facebook page on https://www.facebook.com/a.middletonmusic/ Or subscribe to my Youtube page at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCClIYqddA2wMpdaxSq3BKEw?view_as=subscriber.
