too. Sure to be a good time for one and all!

a wacky, fast-and-furious barn burner reminiscent
of a circus march or "screamer." It was written as a

n Thunder and Lightning (Unter Donner und
Blitz)Johann Strauss/arr. Larry Daehn. Written
in 1868, Unter Donner und Blitz is one of the most
popular, and the noisiest, of all of Strauss' dance
pieces, evoking the sound of thunder and lightning
through incessant timpani rolls, cymbal clashes
and bass drum thunder claps. This sparkling new
arrangement is sure to prompt thunderous applause!
