Product Description

La Gazza Ladra (The Thieving Magpie) opera is best remembered as are most of Rossini's works - by the wonderful overture! This one is no exception. A true audience pleaser, this will also provide a serious challenge for collegiate to professional level musicians.

This work is scored for an unusual instrumentation for a sax ensemble. The work calls for 2 soprano, 2 alto, 2 tenor and 2 baritone saxes, but is actually divided into 2 sax quartets. This is to allow for use as a side-by-side work for student and professional ensembles.

There are also percussion parts.  Although they may be considered optional, the piece works best with at least the snare drum.
