Carmen Fantasy

I fell in love with this piece right after watching Nodame Cantabile.

This is a violin concerto, where the performance of the violinist would be the main one along with the orchestra as the “background”. Carmen Fantasy is a extremely hard piece where the ones play it can show off their skills, so I guess one needs to achieve a certain level before touching the music sheet. But I love it so much that I have decided that I’ll go to violin class this summer ~

Carmen Fantasy, Op. 25, by Pablo de Sarasate, is a violin fantasy on themes from the opera Carmen. <wikipedia>

Carmen Fantasy – violin soloist: Gil Shaham

I prefer the Carmen Fantasy I’ve listened to in Ochestra De Nodame Live, but this performace happens to be the best live so far I could find on youtube.
