Delle Cese: L'Inglesina (The Little English Girl) - for Woodwind Quintet

ISMN # 979-0-3071-0061-9

This advanced intermediate woodwind quintet arrangement of the charming Italian symphonic march, "L'Inglesina (The Little English Girl)" by Davide delle Cese, is similar to Julius Fučík's "Florentiner March." Both pieces are established band classics, popular with high school and college ensembles. This transcription of a Classical Era work is perfect for recitals, contests, competitions, weddings, special events, background-dinner-music gigs, and educational outreach performances.

It is a short, engaging piece that can break up a long program and give the ears a brief hiatus from some of the heavier pieces on the program. This arrangement was written for groups ranging from college ensembles to professional quintets. As always, I have included an alternate bass clarinet part in lieu of a missing bassoon. Bring a taste of Italy to your special music events with this band classic transformed here into a charming woodwind quintet.
