This work is a fantastic showcase for the Solo Cornet section, featuring clever “terraced entrances” that highlight the section’s precision and agility. Clive Lewis captures the festive, rhythmic energy of the original dance, making it an absolute audience favorite. The arrangement moves from its recognizable, catchy opening to a high-speed, exhilarating finale. Perfect for light concerts or as a high-energy encore, this piece adds a touch of international flair and technical sparkle to any program.
