Later and contemporary composers and musicians have continued the practice of taking themes from operas and presenting them in ever more virtuosic guise. They include Stefan Frenkel whose technically very demanding arrangements of songs from Kurt Weill's 'The Threepenny Opera' provide a dazzling showpiece in the nineteenth-century virtuoso tradition of Paganini and Liszt. The haunting 'Desde mi ventana (From my window)' from Osvaldo Golijov's fusion opera 'Aimnadamar (Fountain of Tears)' is heard in an arrangement for two violins and piano by the composer and Stephen Prutsman.\u003cp\u003eFantaisie Brillante On Bizet's Carmen, Op.3, No.3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuo On Theme's From Wagner's Lohengrin, Op.63, No.3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eParasha's Aria\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom My Window\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMedley: Song Of Human Isufficiency\/Mack the Knife\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFantasy Extract On Themes From Richard Stauss's Der Rosenkavalier\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Palpiti: Introduction And Variations On Di Tanti Palpiti From Rossini's Tancredi\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAu Fond Du Temple Saint\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAubade: Vainement, Ma Bien-Aimee\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55375785296257,"sku":"922405","price":14.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51N8Ls7pP1L._SL1500.jpg?v=1772426400","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/922405","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
