Die Fledermaus, Ouverture, Johann Strauss (jr.)

Professor P plays the arrangement for accordion quintet, by Paul De Bra, of the overture from the operetta Die Fledermaus by Johann Strauss (jr.).
The overture is quite difficult (more difficult than existing arrangements of medleys of song from the operetta) but is an interesting concert piece.
I'm hoping that some ensembles will take up the challenge to play this arrangement.
The arrangement is of freely available from www.de-bra.nl/... and from imslp.org.
Enjoy!

Beautiful. My orchestra is currently playing the Waltz (around 2:30) for an opera concert this weekend! So cool to hear it on accordion.

Geweldig gespeeld Paul, zeker omdat je alle stemmen zelf speelt en dat met al die tempowisselingen! Petje af 🧢

I love this arrangement so much! I hadn't listened to the original Die Fledermaus before listening to this, and I like your arrangement more! Sadly, I couldn't find the sheet music, neither on your website nor IMSLP. Could you make it publicly available?

[@pdebra]

Sorry, the sheet music was missing on my site (it is available now), but it was (and still is) available on IMSLP.

@@pdebra I am sorry that I couldn't find it, but thank you so much. It's so wonderful that you have so many of your arrangements available online.
