This arrangement of the popular Polovtsian Dances by Russian composer Borodin contains seven dances from the original manuscript, some of which have been used in the musical Kismet, as well as being performed by such famous names as Tony Bennett and Bing Crosby. Includes a solo for snare drum! Masamicz Amono bewerkte de ´Polovetser Dansen´ van de rus Alexander Borodin voor harmonieorkest. Borodin begon in 1869 aan de opera, Prins Igor, volgens sommigen zijn voornaamste werk. De opera bevat deze Polovetser Dansen,die meestal als een zelfstandig stuk wordt uitgevoerd en in deze vorm waarschijnlijk zijn meest bekende compositie is. Bij zijn dood was de opera niet volledig, daar hij onvoldoende tijd had voor componeren, gezien zijn werkals scheikundige. De opera werd postuum afgemaakt door Nikolaj Rimski-Korsakov en Aleksandr Glazoenov.Masamicz Amano nahm sich die beliebten Polovetzer Tänze des russischen Komponisten Alexander Borodin vor, die auch schon im Musical Kismet verwendet und als Lied von Tony Bennet, Bing Crosby und den Four Aces interpretiert wurden. Amano schuf daraus ein überzeugendes Arrangement für Blasorchester, in dem die Snare Drum solistisch glänzen darf. Les Danses polovtsiennes offrent l’exemple le plus spectaculaire de l’exotisme musical russe, d’une sensualité pre, sauvage, et d’une rare virtuosité orchestrale. Ce divertissement dansé et chanté en plusieurs épisodes, quintessence de l'opéra Le Prince Igor (1879), contient tout ce qui suscita la faveur de l'Europe fin XIXe : désir d'ailleurs, attraction pour un Orient plus rêvé que réel. Masamicz Amano en a réalisé une version étonnante pour Orchestre d’Harmonie avec un délicieux solo de caisse claire.Le Polovtsian Dances offrono l’esempio più spettacolare dell’esotismo musicale russo, fatto di una sensualit selvaggia e di una rara virtuosit orchestrale. Questo divertimento ballato e cantato in vari episodi, quintessenza dell’opera Il Principe Igor (1879), contiene tutto ciò che l’Europa del XIX secolo adora: desiderio di posti lontani, attrazione per un oriente più sognato che reale. L’arrangiamento di Masamicz Amano propone un delizioso assolo per rullante.
