Au Revoir Budapest (Stephen Chin) for String Orchestra
Literally meaning ”Good-bye Budapest”, this work is in the typical Hungarian czardas style.  It opens with a soul searching melody accompanied by languid strings.  This eventually erupts in a frenetic free for all where various sections of the orchestra share the main theme.  A joyous D major section is quickly truncated by the return of the compelling czardas. A gloomy rendition of the opening with solo violin, tremolo upper strings and pizzicato lower strings adds a mysterious element to the work.  It finally concludes with a ferocious presto. Grade 3.
