Summary of This Score
This score brings together classics from the repertoire with a dark, theatrical, or fantastic character, carefully arranged by Kevin Olson. The goal is clear: to offer music that "tells a story" from the very first measures, ideal for creating tension, a mysterious atmosphere, or a spectacular grand finale during a Halloween concert. But these pages are equally suited for an end-of-year concert, a themed audition, or simply the pleasure of playing famous melodies that leave a lasting impression.
You will find a true journey through eras and styles, with iconic titles: "Danse Macabre" (Saint-Saëns), "Funeral March" (Chopin), "Funeral March of a Marionette" (Gounod), "In the Hall of the Mountain King" (Grieg), "Lacrymosa" (Mozart), "Night on Bald Mountain" (Mussorgsky), "Ride of the Valkyries" (Wagner), "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" (Dukas), and "Toccata in D minor" (Bach). This selection allows working on character, contrasts, and rhythmic setup, while offering a musical output immediately recognizable to the audience.
