Product Description
This trumpet feature of the familiar and impassioned tenor aria Che Gelida Manina from Puccini's beloved opera La Boheme is a solo showcase in the tradition of Opera Without Words instrumental arrangements. The brass quintet arrangement is scored for two trumpet in B-flat with alternate C trumpet parts, horn in F with flugelhorn/trumpet substitute for horn, trombone and tuba. The audio file is an actual performance by a brass quintet of the entire work and not a computer playback of the score.
