“O mio babbino caro” and the Mozart Kyrie canon are now both up on the print music page under Brass Quintet. Score Exchange apparently had an issue over the weekend that created a huge backlog of unprocessed scores. That cleared up sometime in the last day or so, and so I was able to finish putting them up for your perusal.
In other news, I’ve been working on a brass quintet arrangement of Richard Wagner’s Meistersinger overture. This has easily been my biggest challenge so far. There’s a ton going on in that overture, of course, and the process of distilling it down to five parts has made me appreciate even more than I already had the amount of talent the great arrangers have and the amount of hard work that they have to put into their craft. I am not on that level–at least I don’t believe that I am–but I hope that my attempts are passable rather than offensive at the very least.
