Product Description

"The Blue Danube" is the common English title of "An der schönen blauen Donau", Op. 314 (German for "By the Beautiful Blue Danube"), a waltz by the Austrian composer Johann Strauss II, composed in 1866. Originally performed on 15 February 1867 at a concert of the Wiener Männergesang- Verein (Vienna Men's Choral Association), it has been one of the most popular pieces of music in the classical repertoire. In this arrangement, inspired by Robert Longfields adaptation, a woodwind quintet was added. It is mainly adapted for performers at the elementary school level. The composition is reduced to only the string section and woodwind quintet, retaining the main melody sections of the entire work, so that students can feel the charm of classical music. At the same time, according to the actual situation of the orchestra, it can be transformed into a string orchestra or a woodwind quintet to perform separately, or the number of string players or woodwind players can be increased according to the occasion. It can be transformed into a chamber symphony orchestra or a small ensemble. String players only need to master the first position to play this adaptation, and wind players need to reach grade 2 or grade 2.5.
