Trauermusik - By Richard Wagner / arr. John Boyd, Michael Votta

Renowned for his timeless additions to the world of opera and orchestral repertoire, Richard Wagner composed Trauermusik to accompany Carl Maria von Weber's remains to their final resting place. Using themes of Weber, it is a significant addition to the wind repertoire and Dr. Boyd's adaptation for modern ensembles makes it a true classic. A terrific recording is also available through Ludwig Music/ELF CD, Masterworks, 30991010.
