Product Details


Product Description

There is a Third Violin Part as an Alternative to Viola as well as an Optional Contrabass part so the piece can be performed by a String Orchestra.
Jean- Philippe Rameaus Tambourin was originally a keyboard arrangement in his E Minor Suite. It has subsequently become well known in its own right. The style of the music evokes a dance rhythm being played by a tambourin, a small drum found in the Provence region of France. The staccato nature of the notation is also suggestive of its original performance on a Harpsichord. The lead player can include gruppettos or grace notes which was common practice in the late Baroque period or in the early 18C .

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
