Galop By Bohm Arr. Stephen Chin

Carl Bohm (1844 - 1920) was a highly respected composer and teacher whose works were specifically designed to develop the skills of violinists. One of his most famous compositions, "Moto Perpetuo," has been played by countless violinists worldwide. In addition, Bohm's "Galop" is a piece that is similar in style but with a lyrical middle section that provides a beautiful contrast. In this arrangement, the cellos take on the central role, adding depth and richness to the performance. The piece itself is incredibly challenging, with double semiquavers that require a high level of technical skill. Nonetheless, the work is shared around in such a way that every musician has the opportunity to showcase their abilities and shine.
