7th Street Beat—Lauren Bernofsky. A beatbox
piece for orchestra! Beatbox percussion sounds
imitate effects normally made by a drum set, and
these vocal syllables are woven into the parts of
each section of the orchestra. The same parts are
also written out separately for a guest "soloist" or
two. A section for optional improvisation - either
instrumental or vocal - makes this piece extra-fun
and creative!

Arachnid's Lair—Kirt Mosier. Though perfect
for Halloween, Arachnid's Lair can be performed
any time of year. The dark, subtle introduction with
molto crescendos and decrescendos hint at the
sinister plan an arachnid has for its prey. Dissonant
harmonies, dramatic dynamics, and tempo
changes add to the movement on the spider's web.
A brief but hauntingly beautiful viola solo is offered

a glorious time of year! The air is crisp and cool,

contrast. Shifting in violin 1.
