Hugo Alfven - Rhapsody No 1

[MultiTimV]

Kewl!

[TsrniMacak]

Much of this sounds very similar to the version by Eugene Ormandy--and for me it would be wonderful if someone could post the entire version by Ormandy.

[JOAVARGAS612]

you can listen to RAPSODIA SUECA PACHO GALAN it´s a fantastic latinoamerican version from this song. Pacho Galan is a Colombian Composer.

Eu realmente não conhecia nenhum compositor sueco de música erudita,mas Hugo Alfvén é encantador.Muito boa as composições,pois jamás conhecia essa fera na música erudita aquí no Brasil.Esse composições é dos bons!Muito linda essa composição,nunca conhecia antes.

[Duudeabides]

Stop the Calvary is based loosely on this.

[Sveavivaldi]

Svensk musik på sin höjd!

[brunefors]

This is an arrangement by Percy Faith from 1953.

[philidor3]

Spectacularly used by Ritchie Blackmoore (Deep Purple) in "Lazy" from "Made in Japan" 1972.

[Duudeabides]

@philidor3 First thing i thought when i heard it.!

[Stalacyn]

@philidor3 And in Yakety Axe by Chet Atkins ! Really good theme :D

[rossyxan]

This used to the ice cream van's theme in my area hehe

[TheGreatMirage]

This is truly a great short interpretation of this piece :D

[ViitorulVaslui]

Inte jag heller tror är den ursprungliga versionen

Men det är ett välförtjänt utförande. Excellent!

Ma è un meritato di esecuzione. Eccellente!!

[Bizetfan]

Who conduct this piece. I think it's not the original version. There are melodies and instruments who aren't printed in the partitur ( sorry for my bad language). From which CD do you have this version?

[SalvoIgnacio]

the introduction ....is Strauss's music????

[richardz117]

i dont belive this is the whole rapsody.

[WithoutTomEvans]

No, is not.

[RoscioTube]

@richardz117 No, it isn't.
