Playing the classical repertoire in a new guise is a very good way of bringing great music to a wider audience quickly. The arrangement has to be skilled though, or the piece loses its focus. No such worries here - this really works! All the main themes are covered and you get to play the string and brass parts too! This is quite a workout but brilliantly enjoyable!
Something to get your fingers flying, this is an abridged version of Felix Mendelssohn's well-loved overture, also known as Fingal's Cave.
