City of Lovers from ‘Casino Royale’

flute, 3 bassoons, contrabassoon

David Arnold's sumptuous City of Lovers, from Casino Royale, is arranged here for flute, three bassoons and contrabassoon.

This beautiful, delicate piece accompanies the arrival of James Bond and Vesper Lynd in Venice - a particularly fitting choice for us, as anyone who knows The Wandering Winds will know of our enduring love of the city.

The flute takes the lyrical lead while three bassoons and contrabassoon provide a rich, velvety harmony, creating an atmospheric and sophisticated ensemble arrangement that captures the intimacy of Arnold's score. A beautiful choice for Bond fans, film-music lovers and anyone who has ever fallen a little under Venice's spell.

As far as we can discover, this may be the first arrangement of City of Lovers to feature bassoons.

Score and parts included.
