Sjoerd van der Veen #988389. Published by Sjoerd van der Veen (A0.1405336).Experience the virtuosity of the North German Baroque with this transcription of Nicolaus Bruhns’ Praeludium and Fugue in G minor, arranged for Brass Quintet.
Bruhns, a star pupil of Buxtehude and a significant influence on J.S. Bach, wrote this masterpiece originally for the organ. It is a quintessential example of the Stylus Phantasticus, characterized by bold harmonic shifts, rapid scale passages, and a brilliant interplay between free improvisational sections and strict fugal writing.
In this arrangement, the "pedal" parts are expertly handled by the tuba and trombone, while the trumpets and horn take on the dazzling manual flourishes. It is a true test of stamina, clarity, and Baroque style for any professional or advanced brass ensemble.
Instrumentation: Brass Quintet (2 Trumpets, Horn, Trombone, Tuba)
Style: Baroque / Stylus Phantasticus
