Hacia Belén (Towards Betlehem) - ARRANGEMENT

 

NOTE: This is not an original composition by José Elizondo, but rather an arrangement of a composition by a well-known Christmas Carol.

 

·        Dedicated to Julie Reimann and Ellyses Kuan

·        Length: 4 minutes

·        Mood: playful, energetic, with flamenco influence in the intermediate section of the piece

·        Description: This is a playful and fanciful arrangement of a well-known Christmas Carol from the XVIII Century by Antonio Soler (“Hacia Belén va una burra, rin rin”). This arrangement presents a fun and unexpected take on the Christmas carol that requires virtuosity from the pianist and the cellist, and can be very good as an ice-breaker or a closing piece in a Christmas program.
