The Suite Bergamasque  is a piano suite composed by Claude Debussy. It was first composed around 1890, at the age of 28, but was significantly revised just before its publication in 1905.

The third and most famous movement of Suite bergamasque is "Clair de lune".

The Suite bergamasque consists of four movements:

  1. Prélude (Moderato, F major, 
  2. Menuet (Andantino, A minor,
  3. Clair de lune (Andante très expressif, D♭ major, 
  4. Passepied (Allegretto ma non troppo, F♯ minor, 

This arrangement for double wind quintet/bass of the last movement.

A passepied is a type of dance which originated in Brittany. Debussy's "Passepied" is a happy, strangely medieval piece, which is surprisingly faster than its Baroque counterparts. Throughout most of its duration, on the piano, the piece is played with staccato arpeggios in the left hand.

The Other 3 movements are available arranged for symphonic wind.
