    Marin Marais – Arranged by Melanie Thorne

    ‘The Bells of Sainte-Geneviève du Mont de Paris’ is a work by Marin

    Marais written in 1723, originally  for viol, violin and harpsichord with

    basso continuo.  The original is written as a passacaglia or chaconne.

    This arrangement for clarinet choir is a slightly shortened version

    of the original with rhythmic and melodic interest in all parts.

    Considering this work is nearly 300 years old, this ensemble gives

    the music a surprisingly contemporary sound. (Grade 6-8)

    [E♭/4 B♭ Cl/B♭ or Alto E♭ Cl/Bs B♭ Cl/Bass B♭ Cl or Contr Bass B♭ Cl]
