Schubert: Scherzo (mvmt III) from String Quartet No. 14 "Death and the Maiden" - for Woodwind Quintet
ISMN#979-0-3071-0031-2
ASCAP WORK ID# 925552573
This is a delightful, fiery, advanced intermediate woodwind quintet arrangement of the third movement Scherzo from Franz Schubert's String Quartet No. 14, "Death and the Maiden." This transcription of a Romantic Era work is perfect for recitals, contests/competitions, background dinner music gigs, weddings, educational outreach, and formal events. The arrangement was written for most advanced ensembles, from college groups to professional quintets. I have included an alternate bass clarinet part in lieu of a missing bassoon. Originally set for strings, I hope you enjoy this unique transcription for woodwind quintet.
COMING SOON: In 2026, look for the remaining two movements as I complete my set from Schubert’s chamber music masterwork. You can purchase them separately or the four-movement set. Save 30% when you purchase the entire quartet. The “Presto” is available now from CMP. Click here to purchase it.
