{"product_id":"extreme-make-over-4000196","title":"Extreme Make-Over","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis new work by Johan de Meij consists of a set of metamorphoses on a theme from Tchaikovsky's well-known\u003ci\u003eAndante cantabile\u003c\/i\u003e (from \u003ci\u003eString Quartet No.1 in D\u003c\/i\u003e). Tchaikovsky stated, “Never have I been so proud of my creative powers as when Leo Tolstoy sat in the chair next to mine listening to my \u003ci\u003eAndante\u003c\/i\u003e, and the tears ran down his cheeks.” De Meij states the theme, followed by the first metamorphosis, which emanates from a single tone. There is a transition to \u003ci\u003eAlla Marcia\u003c\/i\u003e, which is in a neo-classical style. The following movement features the playing of tuned bottles, leading into an extensive marimba solo. This joins seamlessly to the finale, a canonic treatment of the theme, leading to a festive conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amstel Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53489241817406,"sku":"04000196","price":81.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/themusiciansclub.net\/en-au\/products\/extreme-make-over-4000196","provider":"The Musicians Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
