This is a straightforward bit of Baroque writing for cello solo (optional double bass or bassoon solo) with string orchestra. It's fairly short, making it a great choice for a quick change of pace selection. (Solo ME, Orch ME) 2334175 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . ME 45.00 Ashokan Farewell—arr. Bob Cerulli. The PBS series The Civil War was one that captured America's attention. This beautiful lament from that documentary has taken on a life of its own. Bob Cerulli's arrangement opens with a feature for solo violin, continues with strings alone, and includes the option of using piano, winds, and brass for a full orchestra version. A timeless melody that captures the hearts of all who hear it! 2416840 String or Full Orchestra . . . ME 58.00 Blackberry Blossom—Gary Gackstatter. Feature your top player on this famous American tune! The first time through, the soloist takes the lead accompanied by some pizzicato and the occasional foot stomp. The second time through, first violins play most of the tune along with the soloist. The third and final time through the soloist gets some nice variations on the tune. And, oh yes, the faster the better! 2702541 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . M 48.00 H Celtica (for Solo Violin and Orchestra)— Brian Balmages. What could be more inspiring to your young players than playing with an advanced musician? Offer the solo to a local high school or college student, or even a pro in the area, and have them guest star at your next concert. Or, inspire your players by offering an easier version of the solo to be played by a member of your orchestra. It's a win- win situation for everyone! Your players will love the chance to play the lyrical lines and powerful, driving rhythms of Celtic music. 10008662 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . .

Taken from "Concerto Grosso, Op. 3," L'Estro Armonico (Harmony of the Soul), this unique edition offers the opportunity to feature three of your best players - two violins and one viola - as soloists accompanied by string orchestra. A great opportunity to perform a distinctive Baroque work. 10057760 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . ME 45.00 H Concerto for Triangle—Mike Hannickel. Here's a unique way to add some fun to your program.

VE 35.00 H Concerto in D Minor (The "Bach Double") —J. S. Bach/arr. Moore. We're sure you're familiar with this one! It's the standard piece known as the "Bach Double" that every Suzuki student eventually learns. And chances are you have two students who would love to be featured! Arranged for string orchestra with optional piano (or harpsichord), the viola, cello and bass sections play throughout, and the two violin parts alternate between tutti sections and solo sections. It's a very practical design that allows you to make the most of all your violinists while still featuring your two "stars!" 2445864 String Orchestra 1st Movement . . . . . . . . . . MA 45.00 Danza Latina—Brian Balmages. The ultimate in performance flexibility: you can feature a violinist or violist at the advanced level, or the easy level!

E 45.00 H Gabriel's Oboe (from "The Mission")— Ennio Morricone/arr. Longfield. This melody became so popular that Italian lyrics were added and it has a second life as the song, Nella Fantasia. Oscar winning composer Ennio Morricone has provided Hollywood with some of its monumental film scores, including this engaging music from "The Mission." This memorable theme can feature either an oboe, a flute, or solo violin backed by an impressive, rich string orchestral accompaniment. 10033632 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . ME 45.00 H Gloria in Excelsis Deo—Antonio Vivaldi/ arr. Don Brubaker. It's Vivaldi's Gloria - without all those pesky singers! This string orchestra arrangement of Vivaldi's choral masterwork is the perfect introduction for young string players. It retains the composer's key of D Major and features solo/soli parts for your advanced players! The opportunity to teach or reinforce hooked bowing and the bow lift is present in each section of the orchestra.

Written by Robert Kerr and arranged for strings by Soon Hee Newbold, this air and jig is a dramatic finale to any concert. Dazzling violin solos (both lyrical and technical) and highly rhythmic passages accompanied by drum set really set this work apart. Optional piano and harp add to the sound of a work destined to bring down the house. A great closer! 10047958 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . M 60.00 It Takes One to Tango—Brian Balmages. Here's a unique feature for that exceptional student cellist (or euphonium player). All the drama of a tango, with intricate mystery and plenty of rhythmic variation. The orchestra provides accessible accompaniment and response to the vibrant solo. Sure to receive a standing ovation! 10307197 String Orchestra with Cello or Euphonium Solo. . . . . . . ME 60.00 Japanese Lullaby—Larry Clark. This dramatic music is based on an authentic Japanese folk song Mori no Fukuro (The Forest Owl). This pensive and beautiful tune becomes the inspiration for a truly unique arrangement. Textures change mysteriously as a solo violin and solo cello exchange, melodies, followed by 2 solo violins soaring over pizzicato accompaniment. This builds into the final statement of the folk song with an obbligato in the first violins. Highly recommended! 10013227 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . E 50.00 Momentium—Paul Barker. This powerful original work utilizes driving rhythms, harmonies laced with irresistible suspensions, and an emotional solo for violin in the middle section. Add the orchestral percussion and piano to have a superb choice for concerts. 10568195 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . M 50.00 My Shot (from "Hamilton")— Lin-Manuel Miranda/arr. Larry Moore. "Hamilton" is without question the most creative, talked-about musical to hit Broadway this millennium.

This arrangement for strings and a vocalist is a clever way to connect students with American history! 10628859 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . M 50.00 Oblivion—Astor Piazzolla/arr. Longfield. Originally composed for chamber ensemble, this sultry tango features a violin, flute or oboe solo with string orchestra. A lovely piece that is incredibly expressive and emotional. 10374202 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . ME 50.00 One Bow Concerto—Richard Meyer. Your audience will laugh out loud! A violinist, a violist and a cellist have soloist seats in front of the orchestra, and they share just one bow, passing it to one another just in the nick of time. The orchestra is all pizzicato, so there really is only one bow. "But a cellist shouldn't use a violin bow," you think. Right, so they stop passing it to him and the cellist shows what he thinks of that! By the end the bow is in the hand of the conductor. Recommended as a show-stopper! 2475422 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . E 62.00 l Polish Dance (for Solo Violin and String Orchestra)—Edmund Severn/ arr. Robert S Frost. Polish Dance is the perfect selection to showcase your concertmaster, concerto winner, or guest artist.

This work represents one of Frost's final and finest arrangements, completed shortly before his passing. 10758267 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . M 65.00 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 . . . . . . . . . MA 55.00 H Theme from "Schindler's List"— John Williams/arr. Longfield & Barlowe. This special edition of John Williams' eloquent theme is arranged to feature a violin solo, violin duet, or a violin and viola duet. Set in its original key, the solo part is the original version as played by Ithzak Perlman, and accompanied by the duet part and a rich string orchestra backdrop. A powerful and dramatic program piece! 10041857 String Orchestra for Violin Solo, Violin Duet or Violin/Viola Duet . . ME 60.00 H Winter from "The Four Seasons" (Second Movement)—Antonio Vivaldi/arr. McCarrick. This arrangement is simple enough for the violin, viola, or cello soloist of your choice! Vivaldi's lyrical second movement, now in G Major, stays true to the original with the famous melody over pizzicato accompaniment. The violin solo is entirely in first position, and the viola and cello soloists only need to know the first three notes they learn in third position: D, E, and F sharp on the A string! 10049864 String Orchestra Violin, Viola or Cello Solo . . . . E 49.00 SOLO FEATURES Feature your students in these exciting solos with orchestra!
