Overture to H.M.S. Pinafore

Description

The delightful and witty music of Gilbert and Sullivan is perfectly captured in this arrangement of the Overture to H.M.S. Pinafore. David Marlatt has masterfully adapted Sullivan’s sparkling orchestral score for the brass band, preserving the jaunty nautical themes and operatic flair. It is a quintessential “light classical” favorite that is ideal for concert openers or encores, providing a touch of British theatrical history and infectious tunefulness.

Difficulty 4

(Medium) A level 4 difficulty rating brings very challenging rhythms to the piece. Syncopation will be freely used, as will the more extreme ranges for all instruments.
