The Guinness Book of Music by Robert Dearling
(Piano). The eight movements of Dmitri Shostakovich's Suite No. 2 for Jazz Orchestras are mostly clips from film music from the years 1940 to1956. Especially well-known from this suite is the waltz no. 2, originally a background music in the movie The First Season by Mikhail Kalatozov (1956); The waltz is cited in many other films, such as in Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut of 1999. The arrangements for four-handed piano keep close to the original, the term transcription fits best. The Primo part is technically more demanding than the Secondo Part.
