Le Tombeau de Couperin

One of the greatest showpieces for any orchestra, I arranged Ravel's incredible

Le Tombeau de Couperin for my colleagues in Ensemble Q in 2020. The ensemble

performed the arrangement for the first time on October 12, 2021 in the

Conservatorium Theatre on Brisbane's SouthBank. You can see the performance on YouTube. I am indebted to the members of Ensemble Q, not only for their wonderful playing, but for their patience and help with the arrangement of this very detailed work. The performers at the first performance were:

Virginia Taylor flute

Huw Jones oboe

Paul Dean clarinet

David Mitchell bassoon

Peter Luff horn

Natsuko Yoshimoto violin 1

Sonia Wilson violin 2

Imants Larsens viola

Trish Dean cello

Phoebe Russell bass

I hope you enjoy this wonderful music, Best wishes, Paul Dean
