Adagio in G Minor Brass Octet and Organ

This arrangement is unique in its design. It was made for an octet of brass with the mellow tone of the euphonium and flugelhorn added to the classic sound of the quintet of metals, with two trumpets, horn, trombone and tu. The obligatory organ was added to provide a solid harmonic part and a liturgical ambience to the Adagio of Albignoni. The arrangement was based on the original arrangement of Giazzotto, but combining the beautiful timbres, sonorities and possibilities of the metal instruments. The limits of the tessituras were respected but widely exploited. Your group will need a lot of breath to play this arrangement because time is slow. There are spaces for the soloists to rest between their solos. Your group will love to play this song. The level of difficulty is intermediate-advanced.
