The Holst Suites for Military Band have both been arranged for a traditional
orchestra. Contemporary wind pieces that have been transcribed from wind
ensemble to orchestra include Karel Husa's Music For Prague 1968, Schoenberg's
Theme and Variations, and Husa's Apotheosis of This Earth (SATB Chorus added
to it as well).
