Yngwie Malmsteen:
”(Si Vis Pacem) Parabellum is a piece of great difficulty. Drawing inspiration from Paganini’s 4 octave arpeggios it is very satisfying to apply this extremely challenging violin technique to my own composition. Starting in B harmonic minor, it transposes to D natural major and then into F# Phrygian. It is a natural flow within the chord progression of relative keys and modes. It was very challenging and exciting to perform this piece and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.”
