Brahms captures the fire and passion of Romanian culture in these folk songs set to dance styles. Intensity and drama is created with dynamic exaggeration, abrupt tempo changes, and contrasting bow styles. An excellent way to encourage students to listen and watch the conductor as they engage with all the wonderfully rich sections of the piece. 10877043 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .55.00 10877044 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 4 Hungarian Dance No. 3—Johannes Brahms/ arr.

Alla Danza Tedesca (German dance) is the fourth of six movements in Beethoven's quartet, Op. 130, composed in 1826, the year before his death. While the complex original is simplified here, the delightful character is maintained. Following the form of standard quartets, all parts have interest as they weave back and forth with imitative motives. Effective dynamics and three-beat slurs make great teaching points in all parts. 10998716 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

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 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 49.00 10280398 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .7.00 H Allegretto (from "Symphony No. 7")— Ludwig van Beethoven/arr.

A wonderful addition to your concert repertoire! 10284930 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Crafted into a sturdy string orchestra arrangement, the striking and oh so familiar movement of Beethoven's seminal "Symphony No. 5" is the model introduction to one of the poignant works in Classical music history. Condensed from the movement's usual seven-minute average playing time into a tidy 2:20, Beethoven's impressive mastery resounds! 10307139 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 45.00 10307140 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .5.00 H A Beethoven Lullaby—Brian Balmages.

Robert D. McCashin. Magnificent! String players have gained a new addition to the string repertoire with this arrangement of Beethoven's most famous overture. The strings have been split in 8 voices: 4 violin, 2 viola, 1 cello, and 1 bass, making this ideal for larger, more mature string programs, combined or mass string orchestras, or even to be played as an octet in chamber music programs. 2474330 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

VE 42.00 Romance in G Major (for Two Solo Violins and String Orchestra)—Ludwig van Beethoven/ arr. Robert McCashin. Beethoven's Romance in G Major was originally penned as a solo violin work with orchestra. In this arrangement, it has been craftily reworked for two violins and string orchestra. It maintains the entirety of the solo line (creatively shared by the two soloists) as well as the full "Beethoven sound" in the orchestration. The greatest benefit provided by this arrangement is that it is now much more accessible - not only to younger violinists, but also to the string orchestra setting. 10568203 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
