Guise Jean François de
music for chamber ensemble
Op. 23, number 8

Jean François de Guise conceived this work as a nonet.
In its execution, however, this music for chamber ensemble turns out to be a small orchestral work.
Although the chamber music system consistently paves its way, this piece brings all the colors of the orchestra with it and the brass section in particular reinforces this impression.
Usually such complicated pieces are then also conducted,
another indication of an orchestra.
If a conductor leads the performance, it would even be possible to reinforce the string apparatus, i.e. to have multiple casts.
Since Jean François de Guise also works very carefully in his orchestral works, i.e. dispenses with parallel or even duplicated passages, this use of the piece could be called legitimate.
But if you dare to give space to the transparency of your music, you will be amazed at the listening experiences this piece is able to convey.
