Mozart’s Symphony No. 40… but Cinematic & Modern

Sound familiar? Handel wrote the original Passacaglia in 1720, the final movement of his Suite in G minor for harpsichord. Halvorsen arranged it for violin and viola in 1893 — and that's the arrangement most people know, even if they can't name it. It's been performed in concert halls, films, and services for over three hundred years. Where did you first hear it? A movie, a wedding, a service, a recital? Tell us the moment in the comments — we read them. 🎹 Latest release:
