This instrument plays in a different tempo in Carl Nielsen’s Fifth Symphony “as if at all costs to stop the progress of the orchestra.” (10[1])In one symphony, a solo for this instrument [emphasize] accompanies an extended E-flat major theme that starts with pianissimo violins and violas playing col legno (“LANE-yo”) and pizzicato, and which quotes “Da geh’ ich zu Maxim” (“dah GAY ikh tsoo mahk-SEEM”) from Franz Lehár’s The Merry Widow. (10[2])This instrument begins and ends the “Game of Pairs” in Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra. An “insistent” two-bar, 3/4 (“three-four”) theme (-5[1])for this instrument recurs 169 times in (10[1])an orchestral piece that Bronislava Nijinska choreographed as a dance in a Spanish tavern. This instrument underscores the “invasion theme” in Shostakovich’s (-5[1])“Leningrad” Symphony. (10[1])For 10 points, a slowly crescendoing (10[1])ostinato is played by what percussion (-5[1])instrument throughout Ravel’s Boléro? ■END■ (10[1]0[2])
