Flight Of The Bumblebee by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov
Flight of the Bumblebee is an orchestral interlude by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov from the opera The Tale of Tsar Saltan, composed around the turn of the twentieth century. In the opera, the music accompanies Prince Gvidon's transformation into a bumblebee. Its restless, rapidly moving line later made it a natural standalone virtuoso excerpt, even though its original home is the opera. The catalog entry points to a community score titled Flight of the Bumblebee. The frozen evidence does not establish whether that score is for piano, another solo instrument, or an orchestral reduction.
