About
Penderecki's opera 'Ubu Rex' contains a small wind band functioning as King Ubu's 'military band'. Therefore the idea to arrange parts of the opera for large concert orchestra readily presented itself. Henning Brauel selected suitable material and arranged scenes from the opera into a suite of five movements without titles. The best of contemporary music for top ranking orchestral performances.
