Instrumental Duet Cello,Instrumental Duet,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.802591 Composed by Louis-Hector Berlioz. Arranged by Peet du Toit. Contemporary. Score and parts. 1 pages. Peet du Toit #5828393. Published by Peet du Toit (A0.802591). Symphonie Fantastique (Fantastical Symphony: Episode in the Life of an Artist â€¦ in Five Sections) Op. 14, is a program symphony written by the French composer Hector Berlioz in 1830. It is an important piece of theearly Romantic period. The first performance was at the Paris Conservatoire on 5 December 1830. Franz Liszt made a piano transcription of the symphony in 1833 (S. 470).Leonard Bernstein described the symphony as the first musical expedition into psychedelia because of itshallucinatory and dream-like nature, and because history suggests Berlioz composed at least a portion under the influence of opium. According to Bernstein, Berlioz tells it like it is. You take a trip, you wind up screaming at your own funeral.Symphonie Fantastique is a piece of program music that tells the story of an artist gifted with a lively imagination who has poisoned himself with opium in the depths of despair because of hopeless, unrequited love.The original way in which Berlioz fused all the ingredients and elements into his music with great emotional intensity and musical brilliance makes this symphony such a masterpiece. It was truly revolutionary in that nothing like it had ever been heard before.

David McKeown #5728681. Published by David McKeown (A0.589134). Huapango de Hannah is an exciting original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for one Violin and one Cello. The Huapango is a traditional Mexican style of music and dance, often mixing triple and duple metres. It is played on violin, accordion, and local 5-string variants of the guitar such as the vihuela, huapanguera and jarana. The Huapango rhythm famously inspired the song America in Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story.If you play to an intermediate standard and upwards, then you and your audience will enjoy this piece. The mixed metres, alternating between 6/8 and 3/4, will present a rhythmic challenge, while following the precise articulation in the score will help convey the dance style of the Huapango. Huapango de Hannah has a performance time of around two minutes.
