Contrapunctus No. 3

Description

The famous Art of the Fugue by Bach has been arranged for string orchestra and brass quintet. This new version uses the brilliant colour of the 2 trumpets against the warmer sound of the horn, trombone, and tuba. There is a significant section in the middle in which just the bottom three voices are playing and that dark rich sound is truly a successful scoring. There is an optional e-flat trumpet part to keep the upper lines more light.
