Work Overview
This is an arrangement of the Strauss sublime work, which expands the composer's previous arrangement (for soprano, clarinet, violin & piano, published by Wirripang) to allow chamber ensembles to perform it in an intimate setting, but with a broader acoustic than his earlier arrangement (which version has been previously performed in Newcastle & Paris).
