6 guitars, guitar sextet - Intermediate - Digital Download
SKU: ZZ.DZ-4608
Composed by Sergei Rachmaninoff. Arranged by Raymond Burley. Score and parts. Les Productions d'OZ - Digital #DZ 4608. Published by Les Productions d'OZ - Digital (ZZ.DZ-4608).Rachmaninoff's beautiful Vocalise is the final piece from the set of 14 Songs or Romances op.34 composed in 1915. It is essentially a Song Without Words. The composer invites the vocalist to sing using just one vowel sound throughout. It's dedicated to soprano Antonina Nezhdanova.
Over the years there have been numerous arrangements of the piece although, as far as I'm aware, this is the first for guitar ensemble.
Although the upper part of the arrangement should be prominent the lower parts all have their share of melodic interest.
I hope you enjoy performing it as much as I did arranging it.
La magnifique Vocalise de Rachmaninov est la dernière pièce du recueil de 14 Chansons ou Romances op. 34, composée en 1915. Il s'agit essentiellement d'une Romance sans paroles. Le compositeur invite le chanteur ou la chanteuse à n'utiliser qu'une seule voyelle tout au long de l'œuvre. Elle est dédiée à la soprano Antonina Nezhdanova.
Au fil des années, de nombreux arrangements de cette pièce ont vu le jour, bien que, pour autant que je sache, celui-ci soit le premier pour ensemble de guitares.
Bien que la partie supérieure de l'arrangement doive être prédominante, les parties inférieures possèdent toutes leur propre intérêt mélodique.
J'espère que vous aurez autant de plaisir à l'interpréter que j'en ai eu à l'arranger.
