Divertimento By Mozart Arr. Stephen Chin
Originally composed for wind ensemble and later adapted for pianoforte, these delightful movements have been meticulously arranged to create a coherent and seamless work of art. The composer has skillfully incorporated elements that are reminiscent of Mozart's famous "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik," which was written several years later. The music requires a high level of proficiency from intermediate players, who will be challenged by intricate techniques such as spiccato quavers, martele crotchets, measured tremolo, and lifted upbows. These techniques are essential for developing precision and clarity in a more advanced string ensemble. Overall, this composition is a beautiful and engaging piece that will captivate both performers and audiences alike.
