Large Ensemble Bassoon, Clarinet, Double Bass, F Horn, Flute, French Horn, Oboe - Level 4 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1605703
Composed by Edward Elgar. Arranged by Ray Thompson. This edition: pdf. 20th Century. 35 pages. RayThompsonMusic #1175869. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.1605703).
The Wand of Youth (Music to a Child's Play) Second Suite, (Op. 1b) is dedicated to Hubert A. Leicester.
The music was drawn from material written by the composer in his youth and orchestrated forty years or so later.
This is my arrangement of the first mvt:
1. March
The opening of the march is variously described by musical analysts as "tense and hesitant",[having "an air of pensive expectancy", and "in sombre mood ... in the key of G minor in 4/4 with much use of triplet rhythms".
(It reminds me of one of the minor movements from Dvorak’s Legends.)
The trio section, in G major, gives the strings a jaunty, skipping rhythm. (This arrangement gives the trio to the flutes, later played as tutti.)
Elgar's 1929 programme note records that the march was composed to conclude the family play.
Arranged double wind quintet (dectet/decet) and bass
