any Debussy fans out there?

I am all ears when classical music morphs outside its traditional execution form. Because Debussy's compositions were written for piano, it's a treat to witness his works in orchestral form: remember Clair de Lune in the closing fountain scene of the movie Ocean's Eleven? I heard Deux Arabesques performed on the harp--amazing! I was priveleged to play Children's Corner in a symhonic band. I can even (mildly) appreciate some cool ring tones that manage to capture his quirky harmonies.

Ryan, one of my cool brothers, told me about this sweet rendition of Golliwog's Cakewalk. Check it out!

Lucky for everyone that I didn't recommend Charlie the Unicorn...
