Arranged by Richard Byrnes. Romantic Period. 92 pages. Richard Byrnes #652969. Published by Richard Byrnes (A0.1048563).   Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) was a German composer who crafted his works using the techniques of musical counterpoint within traditional forms. Within those strictures he created many beautiful and powerful works.   Barely 20 years old, Brahms wrote this in 1853. It is the second of five movements. Being his last piano sonata, it is his biggest solo piano work.   This movement begins with a quotation from a poem by Otto Inkermann:   Through evening's shade, the pale moon gleams While rapt in love's ecstatic dreams Two hearts are fondly beating.   This is an arrangement by Richard Byrnes for Piccolo, 3 Soprano Saxes, 2 Alto Saxes, 2 Tenor Saxes, 2 Baritone Saxes, Bass Sax, & Contrabassoon.   In addition to many works by Brahms, we offer works by Bach, Debussy, Dvorák, Fauré, Glazounov, Glinka, Gottschalk, Granados, Griffes, Lotti, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Ravel, Richard Strauss, Turina, & Vierne.   This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
