Round 4: Tossup 13

While rehearsing a symphony named for this country, Gustavo Dudamel reinvigorated the LA Philharmonic by asking them to play “Allegro guerriero.” That tempo marking appears in the final movement of a four-movement violin fantasy on tunes from this country by Max Bruch. This country’s distinctive (15[1])snap rhythm is used in music for a (*) “Great highland” (10[1])instrument from this country that has three drones and a chanter. This country names a symphony that comes before its composer’s Italian Symphony. For 10 points, a visit (10[1])to what country’s Fingal’s Cave (10[1])inspired Felix Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture? ■END■
