Can-Can
Offenbach arr Marshall
3 SAB. Steve says: 'Offenbach's famous Can-Can from his operetta 'Orpheus in the Underworld' is two minutes of riotous fun. It was a major challenge to arrange the orchestral piece for just three recorders, but it was great fun to do, and I hope and believe that the result retains some of the joie de vivre of the original. I wrote this arrangement for the recorder trio Bella Musica, and they report that it goes down very well with audiences! I have also arranged this piece for recorder octet (MHE 40113a).'
