My favorite piece of music in The Red Violin is the traveling music of the gypsies as they made their way from continental Europe to England. No disrespect to the inimitable Mr. Pop, but the gypsies had much lust for life - there's an immediate exuberance in the music matched only by the hint of impending danger.
Not for those with an aversion to accordions or gypsy music.
Good stuff otherwise.
