Danse Macabre
is a tone poem for
orchestra written in
1874. According to
legend, Death appears at
midnight every year on
Halloween. The Dead come
out of their graves to
dance till dawn when the
cock crows and they
return to their graves
until the next
year.
Mr.
Chasanov has done a
hair-raising job of
scoring his 3-minute
arrangement for 10-piece
Brass Ensemble of 4
Trumpets, 2 Horns, 2
Trombones and 2 Tubas for
advanced performers.
