The operetta "Orphée aux enfers Ouverture (Orpheus in the Underworld)" (commonly known in Japan as "Heaven and Hell") was composed and premiered in 1858. This scandalous parody play is based on the Greek myth of "Orpheus and Eurydice" and incorporates sharp social satire. Despite its controversial nature, the operetta gained popularity with each performance and eventually achieved great success. The overture, which includes music from various scenes in the play, has become a well-known piece today.

About the Wind Band Arrangement

This arrangement is one of the few I have created, commissioned by the Central Band of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. The request was to keep the original key and to score for a large ensemble. Consequently, the clarinet parts remain with A clarinet due to the range of the cadenza. However, it is acceptable to perform with Bb clarinets if the cadenza is omitted or altered.

I have aimed to retain the original orchestral atmosphere as much as possible. I hope performers will explore the original score and performances to achieve a well-informed interpretation.
