Highly recommended! 10280122 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .48.00 10280123 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .7.00 The Sorcerer's Apprentice—Paul Dukas/arr. Andrew Balent. Here it is!

Robert D. McCashin. In Beethoven's words, the Pastoral symphony is more an expression of feeling than painting... pleasant feelings which awaken in men on arriving in the countryside.” A perfect introduction to Beethoven's major works, the music is exquisitely orchestrated to retain the true nature of the original masterpiece while remaining playable by intermediate students. 10877067 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .60.00 10877068 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 l Tales from the Vienna Woods—Johann Strauss II/ arr.

Students will love the simplicity of Mahler's haunting melody, while being challenged to maintain a slow, steady tempo. 10304743 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .59.00 10304744 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . .10.00 H William Tell Overture (Finale)—Rossini/arr. Sandra Dackow. One of the most famous of all overtures, thanks in part to its use as a TV theme.

What a concert opener this would make! 2172062 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .70.00 Classical Selections Medium H The Abduction from the Seraglio (Overture)— W.A. Mozart/arr. Jamin Hoffman. From the comic opera filled with pirates, Turkish princes, kidnapping and daring rescues, Mozart's The Abduction from the Seraglio is the piece of music that generated the (possibly fictional) "too many notes" story. It is written in the Turkish "janissary" style, a style of music that fascinated Europe at the time. In this arrangement, the right hand of the piano is frequently written 8va to help re-create the piccolo that figured prominently in the original. 10185412 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .45.00 10185413 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 Adagio—Thomaso Albinoni/arr.

Rick England. Absolutely perfect for cross-curricular study in middle school or high school! Prometheus, through trickery, stole fire from Zeus, gave it to mortals and was punished daily for eternity for his crime. Beethoven's melody itself has a bit of trickery and a good deal of moxy as it weaves through each section of the orchestra. The story and Beethoven's marvelous music will provide good discussion among the players and even your audience. 10280397 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .49.00 10280398 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .7.00 Allegretto Grazioso—Antonin Dvorak/arr. Robert Sieving. Here's the 3rd movement from "Symphony #8," one of Dvorak's most famous works and it certainly carries his penchant for memorable melodies! Allegretto Grazioso, is actually based on a song from an earlier opera, and the coda in a faster tempo recalls the Slavonic Dances. These infectiously joyous melodies will be loved by students and audiences alike. 10015096 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .56.00 10015097 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .7.00 Allegro—Sigr.

Your students will thrive on the energy and unique sounds of music by a twentieth century master. Harmonically complex and extremely compelling - once you listen to this, you'll be hooked! 10366783 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .55.00 10366785 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 Allegro from Jupiter—W.A. Mozart/arr. John Caponegro. Containing selected themes from the first movement of Symphony No. 41, this Grade 4 arrangement of Mozart's last symphony clearly shows his brilliance. Mozart's adventurous approach to the material paves the way for Beethoven and other symphonic composers to follow. 10752480 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .56.00 10752481 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .6.00 Allegro from Serenade No. 1 in D—W.A. Mozart/ arr. Robert D. McCashin. This delightful Serenade in D was completed in 1769, when Mozart was a mere 13 years of age (an ideal fact to share with young students)! The first movement, even though composed at such a young age, provides challenges for every musician in the ensemble and is musically appealing to players and audience. 10752880 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .60.00 10752881 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 Allegro (from "Sinfonia No. 6 in G Minor")— J.C.

Certain to be a favorite with performers and audiences! 10366786 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .55.00 10366787 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 H Allegro in D—Vivaldi/arr. Steven Frackenpohl. In this fine arrangement of Vivaldi's "Concerto in C for Two Trumpets," the solo trumpet lines have been transferred to first and second violins. It's a stirring adaptation which retains the characteristic "trumpet" sound of the original, and a delightful concert selection for string orchestra! Recorded by Michigan State University Orchestra on the CD, Teaching Music Through Performance in Orchestra, Volume 1 - Pepper # 5973728. 2276202 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .35.00 Allegro Spiritoso from Symphony No. 32— W.A. Mozart/arr. Francis J. Caravella. Written in 1779 after his return from Paris, Mozart's lively Symphony No. 32 loosely follows the form of an Italian overture.

Robert Longfield. The best-known piece of the young composer George Butterworth is a pastoral setting based on two English folk-song melodies, The Banks of Green Willow and Green Bushes, and is similar to the compositional approach of Holst, Vaughan Williams, and Grainger.
