Faure, Gabriel - Elegie in C minor

Difficulty:  III-IV

Length:  6:00

Drawing influence from the paintings of French Romanticists and Impressionists, Gabriel Fauré never completely recognized his appeal to audiences. Combining his personal harmonies and hauntingly memorable melodies yielded his Elegié in C Minor, Op. 24. An expansive and beautiful work, it was originally written for violoncello and piano. This adaptation tries to bring the demands of the piece within the grasp of the euphonium player. A beautiful work that will challenge all and contains numerous ossias for adjusting to various playing levels.
