Gypsy Airs (Stephen Chin) for String Orchestra

Description

PabloSarasate(1844 – 1908) was a brilliant Spanish violinist and composer.His works, although often fiendishly difficult, are very evocative and display a wide range of emotions and violin pyrotechnics. His more famous works include “The Carmen Fantasy”, a number of Spanish Dances andZigeunerweisen(Gypsy Airs). This arrangement, retaining the expressive and virtuosic elements of the original work, is eminently playable by younger musicians. Grade 2.
