The Austrian clarinetist Peter Forcher is conductor of
the ‘Pannonisches Blasorchester’ and docent at the
Musical Institute Oberschützen, part of the Art
University Graz. In order to support basset horn play
he arranged pieces of famous and beautiful music for
this instrument. Franz Schubert in 1822 composed the
song ‘Sei mir gegrüßt’ (I greet you) (D 741) for
voice and piano. Forcher arranged this piece for
clarinet and 3 basset horns.
