Rafael Aguirre performs Waltz No.2 from Suite for Variety Orchestra No. 1 by Dmitri Shostakovich (1906 -1975) at the Palau de la Música Catalana, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. This comes via Aguirre’s YouTube channel. This work is an arrangement from an orchestral work sometimes mistakenly referred to as the Suite for Jazz Orchestra. I don’t always feature repertoire like this but it is a nice and successful arrangement of this crowd pleasing fifth movement of the suite and well played by Aguirre. Beautiful concert hall and video shoot as well.
