The Hallowe’en season is upon us. While preparing my orchestra’s fall concert with spooky themes–Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, Saint-Saens’ "Danse Macabre," Dukas’ "Sorcerer’s Apprentice," Grieg’s "In the Hall of the Mountain King;" I thought to myself that one of the other works on the program would make a nice arrangement for string quartet. So, here it is: Charles Gounod’s "Funeral March for a Marionette." Except for one A6 in the first violin, all notes fall withtin a generally comfortable range. Listen, and enjoy!
