Details
Giacomo Puccini composed Crisantemi (Chrysanthemums) for string quartet in one overnight sitting in January of 1890 after hearing of the unexpected death of his close friend Amadeo di Savoia, the former King of Spain. This poignant 6-minute elegy, an early work, soon afterwards shows up in Puccini's first great opera, Manon Lescaut. The white chrysanthemum is traditionally brought to the cemetery to mourn loved ones in Italy and other European countries.
Appropriate for moderately advanced performers and beautifully scored by Cory Mixdorf for brass quintet of 2 Trumpets in B-flat, Horn, Trombone and Tuba.
Live performance below on YouTube at the 1:00 mark by the University of Arkansas Brass Quintet from March 2024.
