Claude Debussy – Sarabande (Saxophone Octet + Flutes & Contrabassoon)
Published in 1901, it is referred to as being a ‘Memory of the Louvre’, which is the inscription at the head of the score. Whether is written as an impression of a specific painting or other work of art, it is a noble and elegant work.
A sarabande is a court dance from the 17th and 18th centuries. Set exclusively in triple meter, the dance requires a slower tempo. Debussy was drawn to older forms and sonorities, always recasting them with his unique melodic and harmonic language.
This is an arrangement by Richard Byrnes for Flute, 2 Soprano Saxophones, 3 Alto Saxophones, Tenor Saxophone, 2 Baritone Saxophones & Contrabassoon.
It may be purchased at sheetmusicplus.com and sheetmusicdirect.com.
