Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790261708982). Tortoises from “The Carnival of the Animals” is a brand new arrangement of this movement from the orchestral suite by Camille Saint-Säens.The slow and goofy turtle is given a hip-hop groove to speed up a bit but also face some competiton by afast rabbit, presented by the woodwind-section.This arrangement let the low brass play a slow, and veiled melody which are going to played a bit slower compared to the accompaniment.For the daredevil conductor, this piece can be akind of a “schizophrenic” exercise where one have to conduct the melody one and a half beat behind the accompaniment and rhythm group.
