Summary of This Book
This collection brings together essential excerpts from the orchestral repertoire, organized into two main categories: Tuttistellen (tutti passages) and Solostellen (solo passages). It includes many emblematic movements and overtures frequently requested in competitions, orchestra auditions, and section rehearsals.
The "tuttis" section covers a very wide panorama: Bartók (Divertimento for String Orchestra), Beethoven (Symphonies No. 3 "Eroica", No. 5, No. 9, "Coriolan" Overture), Berlioz ("Roman Carnival", "Symphonie fantastique"), Bizet ("Carmen"), Brahms (Symphonies No. 3 and No. 4, Haydn Variations), Bruckner, Debussy ("La Mer"), Mahler (Symphonies No. 1, No. 5, and No. 10), Mendelssohn ("A Midsummer Night's Dream"), Mozart (Symphonies No. 40 and No. 41 "Jupiter", overtures to "The Marriage of Figaro" and "The Magic Flute"), Prokofiev ("Classical Symphony"), Rossini ("The Barber of Seville"), Schubert, Smetana, Richard Strauss ("Don Juan", "Till Eulenspiegels lustige Streiche"), Tchaikovsky (Symphonies No. 5 and No. 6 "Pathétique"), Verdi, Wagner, and Weber.
The "solos" section complements the work with passages drawn from ballet and opera, such as Adam ("Giselle"), Berg ("Lulu"), Delibes ("Coppélia"), Humperdinck ("Hansel and Gretel"), Puccini ("Manon Lescaut"), Richard Strauss ("Arabella", "Don Quixote"), and Weber ("Der Freischütz"). An excellent resource to consolidate stylistic mastery and sound quality in varied orchestral contexts.
