Pavane pour une Infante Défunte

Pavane pour une Infante Défunte (Pavane for a Dead Princess) is one of Ravel’s most popular pieces alongside Boléro. Written in 1899, the original piano version was arranged for orchestra by the composer and became a highlight of the French classical repertoire. Johan de Meij has created a special version for the world-famous trombone soloist Joe Alessi. This unique arrangement for solo trombone (Difficulty: 5) and wind orchestra sounds as if it was originally intended for this instrumentation. This work can also be performed with solo flugelhorn (Difficulty 3+), or wind orchestra only. Breathtakingly beautiful!
