From Stage Flop to Concert FavoriteThe story of Alphonse Daudet's drama L'Arlesienne to which Georges Bizet composed several pieces in 1872 focuses on the story of love and suicide and was inspired by true events. The musical drama had flopped at its premiere, but the suite that Bizet arranged shortly afterwards from its stage music enjoys great popularity to this very day. After Bizet's death, his friend Ernest Guiraud put together four more movements of themes and motives by Bizet for a second suite establishing a musical connection to Provence und Arles especially in the outer movements, the Pastorale and the effective Fandarole. With this edition, Breitkopf & Hartel continues its successful collaboration with Eulenburg.

Themes from the brilliant 4th movement of L'Arlésienne Suite No. 2 are solidly scored in this easy arrangement for younger ensembles. Easy fingerings and good bowings make this piece sound very professional. Bizet's inclusion of the carol tune The March of the Kings will work well for holiday concerts, festivals, or as an opener or closer.
