tune by Alberto Taule
arranged for orchestra by Michael E. Ekbladh
Quoting "Habanera" from Bizet's Carmen, this fun and light concert piece is perfect for your Holiday Concert. The Spanish carol "Toda la Tierra" by composer Alberto Taulé provides a beautiful folk-style tune blending the agrarian images of the Spain countryside.
