Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Joel Jacklich (ASCAP). Classical,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 24 pages. Joel Jacklich #5304807. Published by Joel Jacklich (A0.723152).

Beethoven wrote a number of ecossaises for the piano. These two had been scored for military band.  It can be played by the full orchestration here, or by just the strings.  

The ecossaise is an energetic country dance in duple time in which couples form lines facing each other.  Ecossaises were usually danced in 2/4 time.  Although the word "ecossaise" is derived from the mid-Fench term for Scotland, any connection with Scotland is unclear.  

The orchestration is for Flute (with Piccolo doubling at the octave), 2 Oboes, 2 Clarinets in A (Clarinets in B-flat are also included in the set), 2 Bassoons; 2 Horns in F, 2 Trumpets in B-flat; Timpani (G2, A2, D3), Triangle, Snare Drum, Bass Drum, Crash Cymbals; Violin I, Violin I, Viola, Violoncello, and Contrabass.
