Rosenblatt - BUMBLE-bee-bop - Piano

Description

The popular 'Flight of the Bumblebee' by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov is a welcome opportunity for every musician to demonstrate his or her technical skills.The Russian composer-pianist Alexander Rosenblatt composed a virtuoso piano arrangement of the famous theme which moves masterfully back and forth between jazz and classical music, thus being a 'cross-over' work: bebop (a jazz style from the 1940s and 1950s) is added to 'Bumblebee' which makes this work not only an amusing play on words ('Bumble-Bee-Bop') but also a virtuoso concert piece which ought to be enjoyable for both performers and listeners alike.Année : 2012Pages : 12Niveau : avancé
