People are Talking: UMS Presents Yuja Wang at Hill Auditorium [plus AUDIO]:
Just to let you know, the Gluck was actually arranged by Sgambati, although she made a few changes in the harmonies here and there.
The Gluck is commonly referred to as “Melody”. It was arranged by Rachmaninoff and is the “meldoy” from the B section of the ‘Dance of the Blessed Spirits’ or Elysian Fields music from “Orfeo ed Euridice.” The B section is the extended flute solo section…one of my desert island picks. A magical way to end a set of encores.
