Price:  $575.00

The Mad Composer explores some of the most iconic music in the Classical repertoire… with a twist.  Things don’t go exactly as expected as pieces take unexpected turns when the mind of the “composer” wanders.  This piece is a great way to expose students to some of the greatest composers and compositions, while also letting them have fun and perform characterizations.

Featured pieces:

  • Brahms – Hungarian Dance No 5
  • Beethoven – 5th Symphony (Opening)
  • Beethoven – Fur Elise
  • Mussorgsky – Night on Bald Mountain
  • Mozart – Eine Klein Nachtmusik
  • Bizet – Carmen
  • Grieg – In The Hall of the Mountain King
