Valse Romantique DEBUSSY CLAUDE

Classique

Description :

Claude Debussy: Valse romantique - arranged for clarinet and piano by Zoltán Kocsis.
Zoltán Kocsis, who died recently, was not just a phenomenal pianist. He is mourned also as a musical polymath, whose genius embraced the activities of a composer, conductor, editor, and not least instrumentalist and arranger. In the last capacity, he added some 150 works to the symphonic, chamber, song and piano repertoires. He gladly adapted music of the turn of the 20th century, as appears from his transcriptions of Richard Strauss, Ravel, Rachmaninoff, Enescu, and above all Debussy. (Many of these are distributed by Editio Musica Budapest.)
The arrangement pinpoints superbly the sensitive, almost ingratiating tunefulness of the Waltz, adding to the clarinetists repertoire a piece that plays well and is rewarding to perform.
