One of Beethoven’s most memorable and beautiful melodies, the Adagio Sostenuto from Sonata No.14 is sure to delight any audience. This arrangement inverts the original structure by placing the delicate moving line in the tenor section and giving the bulk of the melodic material to the more resonant double seconds. Multi-octave arpeggios are cascaded across the entire range of the ensemble to an enchanting effect.
Although one of Gossec’s most popular works, this playful melody from the Classical period may be best recognized from its use by arranger Carl Stalling in several Warner Brothers cartoons.
