Simon:
I conducted the serenade with 12 players at the Sadye Bronfman Chamber Orchestra of which I was the conductor in 1977. We took the full orchestra set of parts and carefully scaled them down and it went very well. How different can any arrangement of this superb work sound, using its original parts.. It is a reasonable way.
I would have loved to do the other serenade, which seems a more sophisticated work, in which I have only played.
