About this arrangement

Concert band Flute and Wind Ensemble - Grade 3 SKU: BF.BM956-SET For Flute and Orchestra. Composed by Camille Saint-Saens. Arranged by Jos van de Braak. Baton Music instrumental series. For Flute and Orchestra. Full Score and set of parts. Baton Music #BM956-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM956-SET). In 1920, about a year before his death, Camille Saint-Saéns composed 'Odelette' for Flute and Orchestra. The title - 'Odelette' - is a term for a woman of the Turkish harem. Obviously, in this piece Saint-Saëns displays his interest in authentic music of oriental countries. 'Odelette' is a graceful, rather dignified six-minute piece in oriental mode, completely in good taste, extremely attractive, easy listening, and in a style that would not have sounded out of place if composed half a century earlier. Dutch arranger Jos van de Braak transcribed this fine composition for Flute with accompaniment of a Wind Ensemble.
