Wow! I always liked your smart arrangements and superb 'orchestrations' for the 30+ years I know you. But this reworking of a masterpiece is exceptional. I was waiting for the disappointment of missing the virtuoso piano part, but it never came. The whole piece sounded logical and 'complete' from the first bar to the last. Chapeau.
Top-tier virtuosity and a stunning arrangement. I appreciate the recreation of the piano part in great detail, not just the orchestral material. (And as a saxophonist, I'm always proud to see such superb writing by a fellow alto player.) You guys are truly one of the most formidable chamber ensembles on Earth -- and you had to build it all from scratch!
Super!!! I play the bass clarinet in a reed quintet in Argentina called Torre7ensamble. We have a version with piano. Thank you very much for being the pioneers and our inspirers.
Thanks Bertolini for your compliments! This is a new arrangement by our saxophonist Raaf. We're so thankful that we can be an inspiration for reed quintets like yours. So proud! Keep on going with your great work 🎶
I was hoping you would make an arrangement of this! My reed quintet just performed your arrangement of An American in Paris. Do you plan on selling your arrangement to this too?
In the future, yes, but first we want to play it ourselves on several concerts. We will post it on our socials when the sheet music becomes available in our shop!
@@CalefaxReedQuintet Wow Raaf - another brilliant arrangement. Thank you so much for enriching the chamber music repertoire as you and Calefax do. Superb.

Just got home from a performance in Hamilton NZ. It was fabulous. Thankyou so much for a great evening. Looking forward to playing my CDs
@@brucejohnston6184 thank you! It was a great concert for us as well 🎶
Wat een waanzinnig geweldig arrangement. En natuurlijk ook prachtig uitgevoerd! Zo fijn dat 't die kenmerkende Gershwin-sfeer uitstraalt!

Hi Emily, great news! The sheet music of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue in now available in our shop: www.calefax.nl/shop
Since there's already a Bass Clarinet there, why give that solo to the basson?
