- Beschreibung
- Written in 1874, Danse Macabre is a tone poem from Camille Saint-Saens depicting the ancient myth celebrating the brevity of life. According to this myth, the Devil appears in the graveyard on Halloween and has the deceased dance for him to the tune of his violin (In this case a devilish clarinet.)
Originally scored for a very full orchestra, I have attempted to compress this score into five voices without loosing the essential tonal quality from the original. The addition of a struck bell (pitched D4) is the only sound not normally found in a quintet. Even so, the oboe playing D5 is quite adequate.
I hope you will enjoy playing this rather challenging arrangement. I certainly enjoyed the challenge of writing it.
