Product Details

Product Description

This exclusive arrangement of Danse Macabre by Saint-Saëns meticulously crafted for Woodwind Quintet, masterfully recreates the supernatural atmosphere of the original through innovative solutions that preserve its macabre essencethe iconic glissandos are reinvented with special woodwind effects, while the rhythmic bones gain new life, offering musicians a challenge as rewarding as it is thrilling. Perfect for Halloween concerts or themed events, this adaptation retains the full dramatic intensity of the 1874 composition, including the infamous devil's interval (tritone) that sets the tone for the chilling medieval legend of Death personified, playing its violin at midnight to summon the dead to dance. With expertly balanced parts that blend technical demands and soloistic moments for each player, this version serves as both a pedagogical treasure for teachers developing advanced students' musical expression and a showstopping centerpiece for professional ensembles. Meticulously edited with precise articulations, detailed dynamics, and all the necessary special effects to recreate the orchestral version's dark magic, it guarantees unforgettable performances that will captivate any audience.

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.
