Ouverture from Nabucco - Arr. Nico Samitz/Clement Schuppert

For Brass Quintet
www.musicroom....
The overture from "Nabucco" is a well-known masterpiece by Giuseppe Verdi. The brass quintet gives it unique dynamics. From chorales to the grand finale, everything unfolds with special effect in this instrumentation, making the hearts of the audience beat faster. In particular, the prisoners' chorus "Va, pensiero" is one of the catchiest melodies in opera literature and gave hope and courage to the Italian population in times of oppression. This makes this overture a very special musical experience.
