   This is the finale of the Piano Concerto of German Galynin,
a pupil of Shostakovich. Unfortunately, Galynin died at the
age of 44, reportedly a victim of Soviet repression.

   The concerto is much in the style of Shostakovich's Concertos.
This is a very infectious piece, and here's how to set it up:

   The sequence presupposes you have a Proteus 2. If you have the
.MID version you do not need to transpose any tracks. The track
names merely reflect the key in which the instrument plays.

   I've done some track-sharing as follows: the trumpets and muted
trumpets share a track.  An extra track near the end for trumpets
shares a track with the percussion track.  Cellos and basses share
tracks with their pizzicato counterparts.  In all cases, program
changes in the tracks switche between programs, so if you don't
have a Proteus 2, you may have some work to do, but you can tell
where to expect them by viewing where the music switches from one
to the other. In addition to the above, I have used the Proteus 2
Marcato 1 program to simulate a col legno effect required by the
score in bars 135-143.

   I use a Korg P3 on a separate MIDI out for the piano. If you do
not have a multi-port MIDI setup, simply combine two tracks using
different MIDI channels to free up a track for the piano. Obvious
choices are the violins and violas.
