Product Description

Pièces pittoresques (Picturesque pieces) are a set of ten pieces for piano by Emmanuel Chabrier.

Four of the set were later orchestrated by the composer to make his Suite pastorale.

This is my arrangement of mvt 2 of that suite: Danse Villageoise (Village Dance).

It is arranged here for dectet (decet/double wind quintet)/bass.

Flute 2 plays piccolo and flute.

The Clarinet parts are for Clarinet in A.

This peice is in A minor in 2/4 marked Allegro risoluto.

(The decisive scherzo is in A minor while the hesitating trio in the major.) (dedicated to Yvonne de Montesquieu)

it is written in a more traditional ternary form and provides a slightly heavy-footed contrast to the orher mvts and illustrates the rustic spirit of Chabrier with precise polyphony (with some elements of Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 25).
