| Ferrucio Busoni's mammoth Piano Concerto is spread over 5 | |
| movements (with a male chorus in the finale!), taking about | |
| an hour to perform. This is the 4th movement, a Tarantella | |
| ("All' Italiana"). | |
| The sequence was done for a Proteus 2 (the orchestral | |
| instruments) and a Korg P3 piano module. The .mid file | |
| has transposed the basses track down an octave and the | |
| piccolo track up an octave, since these instruments sound, | |
| respecively, an octave lower and higher than written. | |
| The Proteus 2 allows for this, but most sound modules don't. | |
| The A Clarinets and French Horns have also been transposed to | |
| concert pitch. | |
| To keep the orchestral tracks down to 16 channels, I've | |
| had to do a lot of program changes in the Tremolo Strings | |
| track. They're annotated in the Comments part of the track, | |
| but not all sequencers display this information, so I've | |
| given it below: | |
| Instrument Bars: | |
| Pizzicato Violins 286-291; 739-742 | |
| Glockenspiel 296-308; 614-619 | |
| Pizzicato Cellos 353-365 | |
| Pizzicato Violas & Cellos 383-395 | |
| back to Tremolo Strings 520-577 | |
| Snare Drums: single hits are a C; rolls are an A. | |
