Trombone Octet - advanced

SKU: CY.CC2742

Composed by Richard Wagner. Arranged by Randall Malmstrom. German Romantic. Score and parts. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC2742).

Liebestod (German for "Love Death") is the title of the final, dramatic music from the 1859 opera Tristan and Isolde by Richard Wagner. The music is actually an aria that Isolde sings over Tristan's dead body before she herself is consumed in death.

The music is lush, with rich harmonies and undulating rhythms as the agony of death is also meshed with the passion of love.

Randall Malmstrom has scored this 7-minute work for Trombone octet of advanced performers.
