Abstract

Musical Suite for clarinet in B flat, French horn, violin, piano and percussion. Suite taken from the ballet 'Ayoub wa Naasa: Gentle Waves of the Sea'. There is an Egyptian folksong that tells the story of Job and his wife Naasa. This is very similar to the story as it occurs in religious texts but is actually an independent folk story. This folk song is repeated in various forms throughout the ballet as a linking theme, and it also appears in the suite. Each movement of the suite depicts a different scene in the story. Includes parts for clarinet in B♭, horn in F, violin, percussion. In this score the clarinet and French horn parts are in C. However in the parts they are transcribed in B flat and F respectively.
