Product Description

Chopin's most instantly recognisable Polonaise, the "Military Polonaise" is lively and full of energy, and works very well as a piece for string ensemble. This arrangement can be performed with or without the double bass, and can also be performed as a string quartet (in this instance, the lower octave of the 1st violin double-stopping can be omitted). The change from A major to G major utilises the natural resonance of the string ensemble and avoids double-sharps.

This arrangement was first performed by the String Orchestra of the Lancaster Community Music Centre, Lancashire, UK.

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.
