Beethoven 9 Strings AND Quintet?
Posted: Wed May 31, 2017 4:47 am
So I just completed (and uploaded my arrangement) of the fourth movement of Beethoven's 9th Symphony for string quintet. It was accidentally filed under "for Strings" and that got me thinking, would it be worth the edit to go in and make a version that actually is for strings? Will anyone actually play the string quintet version (and same question to strings)?
On another note, I only did the 4th movement as it is the grand showcase of the symphony (it's nearly a symphony itself ), but would this arrangement be more valuable if I arranged the entire symphony? Would it ever get played? Is it worth my time? I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but I just want to honestly know so I don't waste (well not waste but not spend well) my time. Thank you!
