4 German Dance No. 12—Ludwig van Beethoven/
arr. Deborah Baker Monday. This is the final work
in a series Beethoven wrote in 1795, predating
his monumental symphonies. This arrangement
remains in the original key of C major and includes
much of the material from his extended coda
section. A very approachable selection that features
classical bowings and style without too much
technical difficulty. Optional 8va notes are given for
advancing players.

Habanera (from "Carmen")—Georges Bizet/arr.
Jerry Brubaker. This aria, probably the most
popular habanera ever, lends itself in a superb
fashion to the string orchestra. Even in the opera
score, the cello is the anchor, providing the
rhythmic and tonal structure on which the aria is
built. Incorporating many special effects, including
optional tambourine and triangle, this new setting
is as fun to play as it is to listen to. Truly a must for
any string library!

has a technical ease that leaves the player free to
concentrate on communicating Faure's vision of
emotion and expression. An optional harp/keyboard

Molly on the Shore—Percy Grainger/arr. Sandra
Dackow. A rollicking good time! Not another
"Celtic clone," this is actually a setting of two
Irish reels Grainger arranged for string quartet
in 1907. It retains much of its quartet flavor by
giving each section lots to do. But don't worry, the
second violins and violas remain in first position
throughout. The Dackow/Grainger combination
ensures a crowd-pleaser that you can feel confident
programming! Very nice!

Ocean Storm (La Tempesta di Mare)—
Antonio Vivaldi/arr. Tom Fritz. Feel the power of
"The Tempest Of The Sea" (Vivaldi) in this work
for strings. Ascending and descending passages

exercise in melodic shaping and tone production for
an intermediate high school group. Major teaching

16th-note rhythms, and slurs. A beautiful concert
selection for any time of the year.
