About this arrangement

Chamber Orchestra - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.939402 Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Robert Debbaut. Classical,Contest,Festival,Historic,Opera. 57 pages. ROBERT DEBBAUT #6342173. Published by ROBERT DEBBAUT (A0.939402). This overture would make a lively concert opener for a group with smaller forces, or work just as well with a large string section.  In the opera itself (Il re pastore, "The Shepherd King;" 1775), Mozart's overture  segues directly into the opening scene of Act One.  Other Mozart overtures that segue thusly have been arranged with concert endings, such as The Abduction from the Seraglio (arr. Anton Andre) and Idomeneo, King of Crete (arr. Carl Reinecke).  Most of the music contained in this arrangement is Mozart's, including the existing material from the original overture, developmental material of that music, and a segment extracted from the opera's final section.  The work is about six minutes in length and is scored for one flute, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns in F, two trumpets in C, timpani, and string orchestra.  A NotePerformer3 audio file is available from the arranger, as are parts in pdf format. If you purchase, please write to the arranger at [email protected], subject "Mozart" and I will send you a copy of the parts for $30 via Venmo or personal check.
