Product Description
Turn on the Alarm and Pound It
A Cinematic EDM Mashup for Full Pops Orchestra
Arranged by Dr. Arthur Field
Unleash your orchestra with this explosive, genre-blending chart that fuses the pulse of EDM with the drama of Hollywood scoring. Turn on the Alarm and Pound It transforms the hit by David Guetta & Nicki Minaj into a symphonic thrill ride complete with pounding rhythms, cinematic brass, DJ-scratch effects, and a jaw-dropping dead-bar transition that sets the stage on fire.
Featuring bold orchestration, theatrical pacing, and a percussive groove that never lets up, this piece is perfect for concert openers, pops shows, or youth outreach programs looking to bridge the gap between classical and contemporary.
