- This is the finale of the Piano Concerto of German Galynin,
- a pupil of Shostakovich. Unfortunately, Galynin died at the
- age of 44, reportedly a victim of Soviet repression.
-
- The concerto is much in the style of Shostakovich's Concertos.
- This is a very infectious piece, and here's how to set it up:
-
- The sequence presupposes you have a Proteus 2. If you have the
- .MID version you do not need to transpose any tracks. The track
- names merely reflect the key in which the instrument plays.
-
- I've done some track-sharing as follows: the trumpets and muted
- trumpets share a track. An extra track near the end for trumpets
- shares a track with the percussion track. Cellos and basses share
- tracks with their pizzicato counterparts. In all cases, program
- changes in the tracks switche between programs, so if you don't
- have a Proteus 2, you may have some work to do, but you can tell
- where to expect them by viewing where the music switches from one
- to the other. In addition to the above, I have used the Proteus 2
- Marcato 1 program to simulate a col legno effect required by the
- score in bars 135-143.
-
- I use a Korg P3 on a separate MIDI out for the piano. If you do
- not have a multi-port MIDI setup, simply combine two tracks using
- different MIDI channels to free up a track for the piano. Obvious
- choices are the violins and violas.
