Composed by Camille Saint-Saens. Arranged by James Haynor. Romantic Period. Score and parts. 114 pages. James Haynor #5709197. Published by James Haynor (A0.782339).Danse Macabre, Op. 40, is a tone poem for orchestra, written in 1874 by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. It is in the key of G minor. It started out in 1872 as an art song for voice and piano with a French text by the poet Henri Cazalis, which is based on an old French superstition. In 1874, the composer expanded and reworked the piece into a tone poem, replacing the vocal line with a solo violin part.
Dance Macabre is scored here for Double Brass Quintet and Timpani.
The piece should be considered advanced in nature but the reward is worth the effort.
