This unique Gem of the Concert Band features a brass sextet accompanied by band. A great example of the bel canto style of brass performance, your sextet of two trumpets, horn (or trombone/euphonium), two trombones (or euphoniums), and bass trombone will wow audiences! Transcribed from the famous operatic vocal sextet, this brilliant work from the golden age of the concert band is a real crowd-pleaser. Our highest recommendation!

One of the most dramatic selections ever presented for band, Andrea Chenier has been a staple of mature and professional bands for over a century. This intense and exciting work includes some of the most passionate moments from the Italian opera into a breathtaking tour de force for mature bands. Prominently featuring bel-canto solos for euphonium and cornet/trumpet, the gorgeous melodies and dramatic musical climaxes will both thrill and excite performers and audiences alike. This striking new arrangement includes full score, and is carefully re-orchestrated to be more idiomatic to the wind band medium. Not for the faint-of-heart, and musically challenging, Andrea Chenier is ideal for experienced bands, and is not to be missed!
