Siciliana

Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale.  This is the final movement of the suite for oboe and orchestra. This piece was conceived as a scene from a festival, masquerade. The crowd feels exited, dancing and intermingling. Suddenly, Pierrot occurred, but even his plaintive theme ends in lightful major with a hope for love, and the mass happily rushes to party again.

Reminiscences of the Ballet

Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale. This piece was conceived as a movement of a suite for oboe and orchestra (III, Scherzo). Its dancy character and theatrical imagery gives a positive association with a scene from a ballet. Lush orchestration helps create a powerful and festive climax.

The excerpt between 1:01 and 1:14 strongly associates with a festive event like a victory or a massive celebration, and could, probably, be used separately.
