Seeing as today's Halloween, I can think of no more fitting day to upload this.
This is an arrangement of a piece I wrote back in 2008 called "Homage to Barrie Cabena". I won't go into the technical details of the chord progression than inspired the piece, but I will quote my original description of it: "Framed within a waltzing calliope like rhythm, the piece seems to evoke a merry-go-round from hell."
I decided to run with that description in this arrangement. Unfortunately, most of the calliope-like instruments didn't have a strong bass, so I opted for bagpipes instead. Making this sound convincing required a bit of fooling around with transposing parts, doubling some voices, and general tweaking of minutiae, but the end result left me laughing, so I figure it's good to go.
Hope you get a kick out of it!
