Hello

On this occasion, and to increase my skills with regard to brass instruments, I have orchestrated a song by Mendelssohn, Op. 19 No. 3 (Hunting Song), originally for solo piano.

The ensemble consists of four French horns, two trumpets, two trombones, and one tuba.

I had to improvise to resolve some passages where the registers were very high, but it is not a literal copy, rather a version with certain liberties taken.

I have respected the original key (A major, which is not bad for brass). But another might have been better, such as B flat major (but some notes were too high for me).

Everything is untransposed and in separate systems (I am working on condensing it with the programme, but it's a bit of a nightmare...).
