Product Description
Rondo Alla Turca is the title W A Mozart gave to the last movement of his
11th Piano Sonata in A Major
K331. It has become one of the most instantly recognisable of Mozarts
melodies. It derives its title from the Turkish style marching bands that were
fashionable in Vienna at the time. This version is arranged as a duet for one Clarinet and one Alto Saxophone.
Musicians at an advanced intermediate level and
above will find this ideal for formal and informal performances, with both
parts enjoying melodic interest. The duet format gives solo instrumentalists an
opportunity to play music written for piano. The overall performance time is
around three and a half minutes.
Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help
with ensemble skills. There are various ornaments to negotiate, detailed
articulation and a wide range of dynamics. Both the short audio sample and the full-length youtube video performance is from the Clarinet version of this duet.
