l Out of Time—Sean O'Loughlin. This intense
work for string orchestra is an exhilarating piece of
music. Moments of lush tutti playing are pierced
by fresh-sounding rhythmic interplay between all
voices of the orchestra.

Overture to the Wind—Kirt Mosier. Expressing
the many different moods and events of a storm,
the opening begins with the violins playing a
gripping ostinato pattern suggesting that a storm
is coming. The first two themes convey the erratic
tendency of powerful gusty winds. The storm
moves into a peaceful lull with a melancholy third
theme played by a solo violin and viola. The storm
then grows in intensity as the final statement
combines all the elements (or themes) of the storm.

H Palladio—Karl Jenkins. This is the enchanting
music used in the De Beers "Diamonds"

of three separate movements, each eminently
attractive and using some "minimalist" techniques.

written by the composer.

fortification. Songs used in the fantasy include: The

and When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again.
The piece is tied together with excerpts from

Red Rhythmico—Kirt Mosier. Show off multiple
soloists with this slick, original jazz piece for
experienced strings. Kirt Mosier brings the heat
in this follow up to Blue Rhythmico with the
kind of textures that only strings can create with
highlighted pizzicato and spiccatto for emphasis.
Written solos are included, or players can explore
how the music moves them.

Bonnet Trimmed with Blue; O Waly Waly (The

Vanishing Pointe—Richard Meyer. This original
selection will challenge every section of your
more accomplished high school string orchestra
both musically and technically. Jazz rhythms and
an intense mood dominate much of the piece,
but make way briefly for a lyrical middle section
featuring lush, beautiful harmonies. The "vanishing
points" are rendered by contrary motion, crescendos
and decrescendos through the work and a brief solo
section for two violins adds to the interest.
