Composed by Claude Debussy. Arranged by Richard Byrnes. 20th Century. Score and parts. 38 pages. Richard Byrnes #6826111. Published by Richard Byrnes (A0.830846).

"Sarabande" is the second piece in a set of 3 under the title "Pour le piano".  Published in 1901, it is referred to as being a ‘Memory of the Louvre’, which is the inscription at the head of the score. Whether is written as an impression of a specific painting or other work of art, it is a noble and elegant work.

A saraband is a court dance from the 17th and 18th centuries. Set exclusively in triple meter, the dance requires a slower tempo. Debussy was drawn to older forms and sonorities, always recasting them with his unique melodic and harmonic language.

This arrangement is for 5 Violins, 2 Violas, 2 Celli, and Contrabassoon.

In addition to works by Debussy, we offer works by J.S. Bach, Brahms, Fauré, Glinka, Gottschalk, Granados, Griffes, Lotti, Mozart, Ravel, Richard Strauss, and Turina.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
