March to the Scaffold Hector Berlioz / Arr. Michael Story

Hector Berlioz was one of the few important composers in the history of music whose early musical education could be described as 'sketchy.' His self-taught forms could turn out either brilliantly successful or, at times, not well at all. SYMPHONIE FANTASTIQUE is considered a major triumph, and MARCH TO THE SCAFFOLD from this same symphony has achieved the prominent position of being a work that is very well known, appearing often on concert programming and recordings.
