Product Description
The original version of this music was
written for piano in 3 hands (teacher and student). I have orchestrated
this for a large symphony orchestra. Equally important is participation
of a child of 4-5 years old as a soloist, who will be playing on the piano the
main theme of Tati-Tati at the beginning and at the end.
It all started as a musical joke from Borodin in a circle of his
friends-composers: Rimsky-Korsakov, Cui and Lyadov. The joke turned into collective
work which resulted into 24 variations with the finale paraphrasing "Tati-Tati".
I usually tell this story to the audience
before performing.
"24 Variations with Finale" is an
composition that is oriented for family and children symphonic concerts, when
the educational part is of great importance for the young listeners to
understand classical music, the sound and characteristics of individual musical
instruments and groups of the orchestra, what development principles are used
by each composer, etc.
F. Liszt gave the best assessment
to this composition. He pointed out to how the composers skills of the
above named composers cold transform such insignificant musical theme-joke
"Tati-Tati" into a brilliant and vibrant composition!
