Igor Stravinsky - "Preludium For Jazz Band"

[manchowsco]

un delicado y tenue preludio

[MrAkihiros]

First time to listen to this and it's beautiful. Way too short though.

Love this piece! Lost the record I bought in the late 60's with this cut on it. Glad to hear it here!

[Composerland]

Interesting impressions. Now, I want to listen to Xavier Cugat.

[xqsabes]

Un gato haciendo la ronda nocturna.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but from 0:33 to 1:01 sounds as though it is from either Jeu de Cartes or Symphony in D.

@IncaRoad01 More obviously, the end sounds a bit like the end of the first mvt of the Ebony Concerto, don't you think?

[matiaslourenco]

incredible!

[ehwhat0]

love this piece. thanks for posting.

[EuchridEucrow1]

You're most welcome.

Glad to know it was of interest to someone other than me.

[polymath7]

I would presume -or at least hope- that at present there are 475 other people to whom it was of earnest interest.

Much thanks. I'd never heard this before.

Oh, and I like also that you chose Picasso's portrait of Stravinsky for your screen image.
