Bach and Before for Strings
Four-Part Chorales from the 16th, 17th,
and 18th Centuries
David Newell. Four-part chorales are a great way to improve ensemble playing.
And, since each book includes all four voices - soprano, alto, tenor, and bass
- there are a number of programming options. In addition to this, as the voice
parts are individually rehearsed and learned, the students discover that all voice
parts of a chorale are important. When played in four-part harmony, the chorales
become naturally expressive, because all students know all four parts and they
understand which voice should predominate at any given time. Students love
playing chorales, because they sound so good! The chorales range in difficulty
from very easy to very sophisticated and are suitable for year two through
high school string orchestras. This is the perfect book for helping students
master the important concepts of chorale performance.
