Fučík: Florentiner March - for Woodwind Quintet

ASCAP WORK ID# 925552656

This advanced intermediate woodwind quintet arrangement of Julius Fučík's Florentiner March is originally an Italian symphonic march from the early 20th century, a standard concert band work known to many music students, and a great part of the international band repertoire. This transcription of a Romantic Era work is perfect for recitals, contests, competitions, graduations, weddings, ceremonies, and background-dinner-music gigs. 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 advanced high school and college ensembles and professional groups. I have included an alternate bass clarinet part in lieu of a missing bassoon. Bring a taste of Europe to your special music events with this band classic transformed here into a charming woodwind quintet.
