Program Notes
Classical windquitet: Flute, Oboe, Bb clarinet, Horn in F and Bassoon
Arrangement for Wind Quintet of “Seguidillas del Mantón de la China” from La verbena de la Paloma, a zarzuela (Spanish opera) by Tomás Bretón.
1’30’’ of bright and spirited music with a distinctly Spanish character, built around the lively seguidillas rhythm that gives the piece its light, dance-like character. The arrangement captures the playful spirit and theatrical flair of the original number while remaining accessible for beginner-to-intermediate or intermediate-level wind quintets, depending on the chosen tempo.
Ideal for concert programs, short demonstrations, rehearsals, or educational settings, offering a brief, colorful, and rhythmically engaging piece that works perfectly as a quick encore or contrasting number.
* The original piece has lyrics (not included), so you can easily find the song and sing along with the quintet.
