The “Egyptian March” by Johann Strauss (son), arranged for brass quintet by Andreas Simbeni, is an artistic reinterpretation of one of the exotic and rousing works by the great waltz king. In this arrangement, the fascinating melody and rhythmic charm of the original is transferred to the compact and versatile format of a brass quintet, creating a new, dynamic level of musical performance.

Simbeni’s arrangement captures the spirit and atmosphere of the “Egyptian March” by combining the oriental-like melodies and lively rhythm with the characteristic timbres of the brass instruments. The individual voices of the quintet are carefully arranged to ensure harmonious interplay and at the same time give each instrument the opportunity to develop its individual qualities.

This version of the “Egyptian March” is ideal for concerts, social events and educational purposes. It offers a fascinating opportunity for brass quintets looking for a technically challenging yet entertaining repertoire piece that embodies the exotic beauty and verve of Strauss’s music.
