Product Description

"La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin" is part of Debussys First Book of Preludes for piano. Named for a poem by Leconte de Lisle, "The Girl with the Flaxen Hair has been set in multiple formats. I have here arranged this simple piece for woodwind quintet in the key of C major rather than the original Gb major. I feel that this key sets well with this grouping allowing each instrument to be displayed at its finest. The piece is deceptively challenging. It must be performed very quietly and with a thorough understanding of the original. It can be very beautiful and moving if performed correctly or it can simply become "Some Blonde Chick".

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
