About this arrangement

Woodwind Ensemble Contrabassoon,English Horn,Oboe - Digital Download SKU: A0.1040862 By Richard Byrnes. By Johannes Brahms. Arranged by Richard Byrnes. Romantic Period. 29 pages. Richard Byrnes #645632. Published by Richard Byrnes (A0.1040862). 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.   This Intermezzo was published in 1893, the last set of pieces that he composed for piano. It was given as a birthday present to Clara Schumann (a famous piano virtuoso in the 19th century). Brahms admitted to writing these just for himself, casting them with an introverted and somewhat melancholic tone.   This is an arrangement by Richard Byrnes for 3 Oboes, 2 English Horns, 2 Bassoons, & 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. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
