Sicilienne (Pélleas et Mélisande)

I heard this work, as transcribed by Louis Robilliard, in an organ recital several years ago and was so attracted to it that I bought the score. I then compared this transcription to the original orchestral score, added some additional double pedal notes to facilitate including a few more orchestral notes, and then instead of using the mostly “foundational” organ registration Robilliard suggested, I orchestrated it as closely to the original score as possible using the sounds of the Father Willis organ in Salisbury Cathedral.

I hope you enjoy it.
