Program Notes

"I don’t mind telling you that I enjoyed very much writing my Tambourin Chinois. The idea for it came to me after a visit to the Chinese theater in San Francisco—not that the music there suggested any theme, but it gave me the impulse to write a free fantasy in the Chinese manner." — Fritz Kreisler

Originally composed in 1910 for violin and piano, Tambourin Chinois has become a very popular showpiece in the repertoire. Edward Bach has reimagined it here as an exciting solo xylophone feature with brass quintet accompaniment.
