dmitri shostakovich walts No 2
In Dmitri Shostakovich's "Waltz No. 2," the melody at the very beginning is primarily played by the saxophones, not listed among your options. However, if you have to choose from the options given:
- the entire ensemble
- drums
- bassoon
- trumpet
The closest correct answer would be the entire ensemble, as the piece features a rich orchestration and the melody is passed along through various instruments, but it does not solely originate from the specific instruments listed. The initial melody is also recognizable by its distinct style, often associated with the trumpet. However, it's important to note that the saxophones have the lead at the very opening.
