Meyer. Hailed by Tchaikovsky as a colossal masterpiece of instrumentation, Rimsky- Korsakov's "Capriccio Espagnol" has delighted audiences since its premiere in 1887. The melodies used in the piece go back to themes sketched by the composer for a virtuoso work for solo violin and orchestra. After changing his mind, Rimsky-Korsakov decided to make the work a display piece for the entire orchestra. This arrangement features two sections of the original capriccio: the Alborada (morning serenade) and the Fandango of the Asturias, a dance traditionally played with guitar and castanet accompaniment. Tastefully arranged by Richard Meyer, Rimsky- Korsakov's flashy showpiece is now playable by the less-experienced orchestra. 10015175 Full Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . 58.00 10015175E Full Orchestra ePrint . . . . . 58.00 H Dance of the Tumblers (from "Snow Maiden")—Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakoff / arr.
