Overture for six double basses. Score and parts, edited by Stefan Schäfer.
»Orphée
aux Enfers« is one of the most famous operettas. In Offenbachs version
the antique lovers Orpheus and Eurydike are far away from passion and
harmony. The persiflage of the Greek legend starts with a lyrical
melody perfect for a bass ensemble.
