Your
orchestra will love the
chance to play these
ever-popular tunes from
Ponchielli's opera La
Gioconda, as arranged by
Richard Meyer. Instantly
recognizable to any
audience, this
arrangement retains the
sound of the original and
gives students a chance
to develop the variety of
techniques needed to
perform two very
different styles of dance
music. The key has been
changed (from E major to
G major) and the time
signature simplified
(from 4/8 to 4/4), but
none of the fun is
missing! (3:20).
