The "Walpurgisnacht" Scherzo in Raff's 8th Symphony ('Sounds of Spring') contains a quite splendid tune which deserves to be heard on its own. Here it is, edited down from the complete performance. I think any enterprising songsmith could take this tune, add suitable lyrics to it, and come up with quite a popular hit! (From the 'Marco Polo' CD with the Czecho-Slovak State Philharmonic conducted by Urs Schneider. The complete movement has also been uploaded here recently by me).
