AT THE OPERA
Opera favorites arranged for Brass and Percussion
In an era when "faithfulness to the original" is considered by many to be the only acceptable approach to musical performance, a recording of arrangements for brass instruments of opera music probably will seem blasphemous to the stalwarts of authenticity. Historically, however, arrangements or transcriptions of the masterworks of classical music have played an important role in the life of our culture, and have been accepted as a legitimate source of musical enjoyment and artistic expression.
