The Devil's Trill Sonata - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

Long ago and far away, there was a composer named Guiseppe Tartini. One night after cathing a flu, he was dreaming and in his dream Satan himself appeared to him, playing a violin. So inspired was he by this musical vision that he wrote a little of it down upon waking. This later became known as "The Devil's Trill" and was an instant classic. Here is the cadenza from the song, and no, it is not perfect but it was the best version I could find. A better version appears in the Blackjack episode "Snowfield's Violin". Enjoy!

I just got this other version from Mrs. Peel. Be forewarned, this is the WHOLE song and it lasts about 14 minutes, but to some it may be worth the time.
