Feature your flute player with this well-known solo from Bizet’s l’Arlesienne Suite #2 and add a novel scoring to a quintet concert by substituting guitar for the oboe. The languid flute solo drifts over the guitar for the opening and closing of the work with a countermelody in the clarinet on the repeat. The more energetic mid-section provides a contrast.

The guitar part uses standard tuning with the E string lowered to D and a capo on the first fret. This provides much simpler fingering than if the piece were played in Eb.

This arrangement has the added benefit of giving the oboist a much-needed rest and allows for thinner scoring in the other winds than does the standard wind quintet version. If desired, the guitar part could be played by harp or synthesizer.

Score: 8 pages Parts: 11 pages

Also available in an arrangement for standard woodwind quintet.
