4 Trumpets; F/Eb Horn ; 4 Trombones (BC/TC); Tuba (C BC/Eb TC). These are delicious pieces, images of old-fashioned childhood, written in 1871 originally for piano duet. Bizet died of a heart attack at the age of 36, the composer of the immortal opera Carmen which was deemed a failure after its first performances. The music of this Suite is of the same calibre as Carmen. Includes: The Top; The Doll; Rocking Horses; Little Husband and Little Wife; Trumpet and Drum; The Ball.
