About this arrangement

Brass Ensemble - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.792740 Composed by Dmitri Shostakoich. Arranged by Wes Ballenger. This edition: audio, pdf. 20th Century, Classical. Score and parts. 38 pages. Gordon Cherry #6190513. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.792740). After the Second World War, Shostakovich was expected to compose a great "Ninth Symphony" with giant forces to be dedicated to the great leader, Stalin and the "greatness of the Russian people." Instead, he wrote an abstract, almost Neoclassical work full of mockery, playfulness, and bombastic gestures. The first movement of this great work is featured in a fantastic arrangement by Wes Ballenger for Brass Quintet with optional Percussion (only one performer needed) and can be performed by advanced artists. The instrumentation is for: 2 Trumpets in C, Horn in F, Trombone, F Tuba or Bass Trombone and Percussion (snare drum and triangle). The arrangement is about 4 1/2 minutes in length.
