Beschreibung

This eBook presents the Eb Alto Clarinet part of La gazza ladra ( The Thieving Magpie) overture by Gioacchino Rossini, offered as an alternative to the Bb Clarinet 3 part in the full clarinet quintet transcription by Enrico Zullino. Designed for advanced-level performers, this part allows flexibility in ensemble configuration while maintaining the integrity of the original arrangement.
The full transcription includes:

• Eb Piccolo Clarinet
• Bb Clarinets 1, 2, and 3 (or Eb Alto Clarinet in place of Clarinet 3)
• Bb Bass Clarinet

Set in concert key F, this arrangement captures Rossini’s dramatic and energetic style, with a performance duration of approximately 9 minutes. The alto clarinet voice offers a warm and rich timbral alternative, supporting harmonic depth within the ensemble.
This digital edition includes a multilingual introductory page in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Polish, providing historical background and practical insights into the piece and its transcription.
The part is part of a complete series that also features all individual parts and the full score. An audio demo of the full arrangement is available at www.glissato.it to assist in performance preparation.
