By Philip Le Bas. Composed by Maurice Ravel. Arranged by Philip Le Bas. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, Chamber. 41 pages. Philip Le Bas #1226890. Published by Philip Le Bas (A0.1660742).
A wind decet arrangement of the Rigaudon from Maurice Ravel's sparkling suite "Le Tombeau de Couperin" by Philip Le Bas.
A rustic French dance, the Rigaudon is lively, exuberant and fast (marked Assez vif.) The original tricky second flute part has been reassigned to two alternating clarinets in order to make it simpler, but otherwise it is all quite playable and "sits under the fingers" for the decet players. The middle section suddenly slows down and the oboe takes the lead in a sensuous dance accompanied by a gentle rhythmical feature, until the first theme breaks through once again. The ending is subtely different from the first section, however, leading to the different key of F major, only to be replaced - satisifyingly - in the final two bars by the original key of C major.
For the companion arrangement Menuet from the same suite see elsewhere on this site.
