Concert,Contemporary. 27 pages. Sonata Grendel Publishing #5360153. Published by Sonata Grendel Publishing (A0.837489). The Passage of Orpheus was originally composed as the second movement of a Suite for Wind Ensemble. The original suite, Mortals, Gods, and Heroes, consisted of three short tone poems depicting three tales from Greek mythology. The Passage of Orpheus depicts Orpheus’s trip to the underworld to bring back his wife, Eurydice. The music is composed as set of variations that intertwines Orpheus’s theme with each of the characters he meets along the way: Charon the ferryman, Cerberus the three-headed dog, Sisyphus forever rolling a boulder up a hill, Persephone the queen of the underworld, and finally, his beloved Eurydice. Tragically, he fails to bring her back. This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
