Default Will o the Wisp chamber ensemble arrangement

This is a super cool and eerie tune that has origins in Spanish folklore. I thought I would share it with you all in case anyone is looking for a unique string ensemble piece to work on. It is arranged for violin, cello and guitar and the parts are pretty easy on each instrument as long as the violinist is comfortable improvising chromatically at the end. Sophia, the violinist does a great job in the video.

I became enthralled with the version of this song from Miles Davis' Sketches of Spain album. Then I realized that Manuel de Falla also used it in a ballet that is full of other great spanish classical music, called El Amor Brujo.
