Product Description
This arrangement of spirited madrigals by Renaissance master Claudio Monteverdi showcase all brass quintet members and will add excitement and drama to performances. As one of the most creative composers leading the musical changes from the Renaissance into the Baroque, Claudio Monteverdi instilled into his noteworthy madrigals not only the contemporary explorations of dissonance and form but also mastered the art of tone-painting of human emotions to an extraordinary level. Scored for a brass quintet of two B-flat trumpet with alternate C trumpet parts, horn with substitute flugelhorn part, trombone and tuba, this arrangement provides an opportunity for performances using all conical brass instruments (cornets, horn, euphonium and tuba). The recording is of the entire edition.
