Laugh With Classical Music - Delos Compilation

Over the years, music that we can definitely peg as humorous or comic in nature has taken many forms. We at Delos have combed through our CD catalog to identify some prime examples, and bring them to you in this collection of music that is sure to make you smile, giggle, or even laugh out loud.

Virtuoso performers have always loved to show off, and – especially in encores – have enjoyed bringing smiles to their listeners’ faces with flashy antics that will both impress and amuse. One famed Belgian violin virtuoso-composer, Henri Vieuxtemps, wrote his Souvenir d’Amérique, Variations on “Yankee Doodle,” after his first American tour. He performed it often during later tours, prompting inevitable laughter – especially in America! Violin sorcerer Dmitry Khakhamov, performing with Constantine Orbelian and his Moscow Chamber Orchestra, delivers it to happy perfection.

They say that laughter is the best medicine. So file this collection in your virtual medicine cabinet, and – whenever life gets you down – let Delos help you feel better!

SHOSTAKOVICH: Symphony No.10 In E Minor, Op.93 - II. Allegro (쇼스타코비치: 교향곡 10번 E단조, 작품번호 93 - 2악장)

Beautiful reconstruction of this great but(not-too-famous)classical piece from  Camille Saint-Saéns. The virtual orhcestra is Kirk Hunter as usual.

Zig, zig, zig, Death in a cadence, Striking with his heel a tomb, Death at midnight plays a dance-tune, Zig, zig, zig, on his violin. The winter wind blows and the night is dark; Moans are heard in the linden trees. Through the gloom, white skeletons pass, Running and leaping in their shrouds. Zig, zig, zig, each one is frisking, The bones of the dancers are heard to crack— But hist! of a sudden they quit the round, They push forward, they fly; the cock has crowed.
(Based upon an old french superstition by Henri Cazalis)


Camille Saint-Saéns - Danse Macabre

Melodies of St. David
Originally written for the Band of the Welsh Guards, this exciting piece is based on the tune, ‘David of the white rock’. The music begins with a fanfare which is later used in counterpoint with the main theme. There are small extracts of other Welsh melodies which proved a strong feature when the piece was premiered on March 1st 2024 at Guards Chapel to celebrate St David’s day.
