Choral, Instrumental and Chamber Music Compositions and Arrangements

Welcome to this portfolio of musical compositions and arrangements, and thank you for your interest!
In the right-hand column beneath here you should see an alphabetical list of works. You can also choose a list of works with a particular label. Alternatively, you can search for a keyword. (Transcriptions and unpublishable works are listed in a page linked at the bottom, if you are interested.) The files here are all freely available. They do carry copyright, but feel free to adapt and/or perform them as you wish, as long as you print/acknowledge the originator (me!) It is always nice to hear from you if you use any of these compositions and arrangements (my email: philiplebas@gmail.com), but this is not a requirement. My main hope, as for many composers, is simply that the works are performed and appreciated. Happy music-making!
Philip

Flower Duet (Delibes)

Scoring: 2 flutes, 2 clarinets in A, 1 bassoon, optional double bass

Date: 2023

The lovely "Flower Duet" from Delibes' "Lakmé" is here arranged for small wind ensemble (2 flutes, 2 clarinets, 1 bassoon) and (optional) double bass. A solo clarinet opens the original singer's introduction, but it is the two flutes who take over the well-known duet melody (particularly after decades of BA adverts) for the rest of the short piece. Careful attention to the dynamic markings (especially the ppp accompaniment at the end) should make this a special moment in any chamber concert.
