About this arrangement

Concert Band/Harmonie - Grade 2.5 SKU: BT.DHP-1125240-140 From Les Contes d'Hoffmann. Composed by Jacques Offenbach. Arranged by Wil van der Beek. Great Classics. Classical. Score Only. Composed 2012. 6 pages. De Haske Publications #DHP 1125240-140. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-1125240-140). 9x12 inches. English-German-French-Dutch.The famous Barcarolle from Offenbach’s The Tales of Hoffmann opens the fourth act of the opera, which takes place in Venice. For this reason Offenbach chose a barcarolle - a Venetian gondolier song with its characteristic swaying rhythm. Wil van der Beek’s arrangement gives this romantic song an alternative, lighter beginning, making it suitable for almost any wind orchestra. Jacques Offenbach (1819 - 1880) was een Franse componist van Duitse afkomst. Hij geldt in het algemeen als een van de belangrijkste scheppers van de operette, een term, die hijzelf nooit gebruikte, hij sprak liever van opéra bouffeof opéra comique. Hier mogen zijn alom bekende werken genoemd worden zoals “Orphée aux enfers”, “La belle Hélène”, “Barbe-bleue” en “La vie Parisienne”.Die berühmte Barcarolle aus der Oper Hoffmanns Erzählungen von Jacques Offenbach eröffnet den vierten Akt der Oper, der in Venedig spielt. Daher wählte Offenbach eine Barcarole - ein venezianisches Gondellied mit seinem charakteristischen wiegenden Rhythmus. Mit einem alternativen, leichteren Beginn macht Wil van der Beeks Bearbeitung das romantische Lied fast jedem Blasorchester zugänglich. La célèbre Barcarolle des Contes d’Hoffmann ouvre le quatrième acte de cet opéra d’Offenbach. Celui-ci se déroulant Venise, le compositeur a choisi une barcarolle - un chant typique des gondoliers vénitiens dont le rythme évoque le balancement d’une barque. Wil van der Beek a arrangé cette chanson en lui donnant une introduction plus légère convenant tout orchestre d’harmonie. La famosa Barcarolle dall’opera I racconti di Hoffmann di Jacques Offenbach, apre il quarto atto dell’opera che si gira a Venezia, con una barcarola, canzone dei gondolieri veneziani dai ritmi molto ondeggianti. Optando per un inizio più accessibile, l’arrangiamento di Wil van der Beek di questa romantica canzone è adatto alla grande maggioranza delle bande.
