Description
Step into the thrilling world of the bullring with “La Virgen de la Macarena,” a Traditional Spanish masterpiece made famous by the legendary Rafael Mendez and arranged here by David Marlatt. This arrangement includes a clever introduction quoting Bizet’s Carmen, perfectly setting the stage for the iconic “bull” tune. It is a virtuosic showcase for the Solo Trumpet or Cornet, requiring immense technical facility, rapid-fire articulation, and a bold, heroic style. David Marlatt’s orchestration provides a colorful and high-energy backdrop that captures the heat and drama of Seville. This is a premiere choice for soloists looking to demonstrate world-class virtuosity in a professional and immensely popular concert setting.
