Played by Grimethorpe at Brass In Concert 2006 (2.5 minutes), this is virtuoso music to start a programme.

The original, from which this short, exciting and technically demanding piece is created, is the Mephisto Waltz N° 1. Yet another piece of music attached to the Faust legend... briefly, about selling one's soul to the Devil... the subtitle is 'The Dance in the Village Inn'. The poem behind this piece of primitive psycho-babble will only interest the scholar or historian. The music itself is powerful and enjoyable.
