Brahms: Serenade No.1 in D Op.11 Mvt.IV Minuetto 1 - Minuetto 2 - wind quintet (arr. Ray Thompson) by Johannes Brahms Sheet Music for Woodwind Ensemble at Sheet Music Direct

Product Details

Product Description

The two Serenades, Op. 11 and 16, represent early efforts by Johannes Brahms to write orchestral music. They both date from after the 1856 death of Robert Schumann when Brahms was residing in Detmold and had access to an orchestra.

Brahms had a goal of reaching Ludwig van Beethoven's level in writing symphonies, and worked long and hard on his first symphony, completing it only in 1876 when he was 43 years old. As preliminary steps in composing for orchestra, he chose early on to write some lighter orchestral pieces, these Serenades. The second was first sent to Clara Schumann, who was delighted by it.

This is the 4th Movement:
Minuetto 1 in G major is followed immediatly by Minuetto 2 in G minor, and then repeats Minuetto 1 and finishs with the ending of Menuetto 2 rewritten in G major.

The original is very thinly scored so I have attempted to do the same, the the quintet DO NOT play tutti all the time.

The horn part is an original and has been created in G ( as Brahms did).
An alternate horn in F is provided.
