Barcarolle from Les Contes d'Hoffmann, Jacques Offenbach arr. Wil Beek. Concert Band

Barcarolle

Description
The famous Barcarolle from Offenbachs The Tales of Hoffmann opens the fourth act of the opera, which takes place in Venice. For this reason Offenbach chose a barcarolle - a Venetian gondolier song with its characteristic swaying rhythm. Wil van der Beeks arrangement gives this romantic song an alternative, lighter beginning, making it suitable for almost any wind orchestra.
