Programme Notes / Performance Details : The flight of the 2nd Bumblebee was written during several months` work on two larger orchestral pieces - a peripheral project that lent variation to my other writing. The piece was originally written for two pianos and takes its inspiration from Witold Lutosławski’s Paganini Variations, a highly original transformation of the 24th Caprice for solo violin by Niccolò Paganini. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov wrote the well-known Flight of the Bumblebee as part of his opera The Tale of Tsar Saltan, and I have taken the liberty to borrow the main theme from it - my sincere thanks and apologies to Rimsky-Korsakov! Following the presentation of the original and second themes, the development section witnesses the two engaging in intense battle! The piece is three minutes of busy, buzzing music, with the chromatic fragment of the original theme a constant presence.
Patrick Raab, percussionist at the Royal Danish Orchestra The second flight of the bumblebee is first of all a very funny to piece to perform. The mix of the original melody from Nikolaj Rimskij-Korsakov and the new theme composed by BrostrC6m, complement each other very well and the result speaks for it self. |
