Wilhelm Tell - Galopp | Gioachino ROSSINI
Wilhelm Tell - Galopp, after Gioachino Rossini: an arrangement for percussion ensemble, published in the Hits in Percussion series.
Arranged by Christoph von Bergen. The closing gallop from Rossini's overture, the tune everyone hums, arranged for fourteen to fifteen players. Each of the three marimba parts is played by two musicians on a single five-octave instrument. Three minutes of guaranteed effect, ideal for opening or closing a concert. An accessible alternative to the full overture, which calls for a higher level.
