Rossini: Il Signor Bruschino

Informatie

Less well known, perhaps, but no less brilliant, is the overture to the one-act farce Il Signor Bruschino in wich Rossini apparently caused a near scandal by directing the violins to beat out rhytms with their bows on the music stands. In this fine arrangement of Christiaan Janssen this effect is reached by clapping the keys of the Klarinet and saxophones.
