FAVORITE TUNES
Anything from the Balcans! This is the New Zealand Balkan Gypsy Brass Band Niko Ne Zna. The tune is Nebuchadnezzar's Nine Wives
Nino Rota. Colonna Sonora per Fellini 8 1/2. La Passerella d'Addio is for the last scene of the movie: the most Buddist you can get as an Italian.
The Dirty Dozen Brass Band. Li'l Liza Jane. We used to sing this for fun in an ear training class: this New Orleans Style Marching Band is, unavoidably, much more fun!
Jacques Offenbach. Gaité Parisienne (arr. Manuel Rosenthal): Allegro. Well ... Offenbach.
Claude Debussy. La Mer ... Dialogue du vent et de la Mer (Excerpt - BBC Orchestra, Toscanini conducting) ... cosa dire ...
Johan Strauss Junior.Tritsch-Tratsch. Polka Op. 214 (Das Orchester der Wiener Volksoper, Alfred Scholz conducting). Can't beat this one.
