GPS—W.A. Mozart/arr. Richard Meyer. Imagine a
live, off-stage voice interjecting driving directions
during a performance of Mozart's Eine kleine
Nachtmusik. Your audience will love this fun
and educational ride as the orchestra follows
directions to "turn right onto Viola Avenue" or
"merge together and play in unison." As the trip
progresses, the directions get more and more
outlandish with hilarious results. Guaranteed to
give everyone the ride of their life!

H 1812 Overture—P.I. Tchaikovsky/arr. Carrie
Lane Gruselle. Finally, an arrangement of
Tchaikovsky's masterwork that includes themes
from the entire work, not just the ending! Themes
include the Opening Hymn, Pastoral Interlude,
Russian Folk Dance and the famous jubilant
Victory Melody set over an exultant Russian
anthem. It follows the form of the original while
keeping the work quite accessible for younger
players. Epic!

H 1812 Overture—P.I. Tchaikovsky/arr. Sandra
Dackow. This is an excellent selection for an
important concert with your string orchestra!

violins require some third-position work, but all
other parts can be played entirely in first position.
Fun for players and audiences alike! In addition to
the medium-level string parts, this arrangement
also includes optional parts for easy violin,
beginning violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, timpani,
and percussion.

H Allegretto—Ludwig van Beethoven/arr.
Robert D. McCashin. The second movement of

Allegro con Brio—Ludwig van Beethoven/
arr. John O'Neill. Crafted into a sturdy string
orchestra arrangement, the striking and oh
so familiar movement of Beethoven's seminal

one of the poignant works in Classical music
history. Condensed from the movement's usual
seven-minute average playing time into a tidy
2:20, Beethoven's impressive mastery resounds!

Handel/arr. Ken Selden. This spirited Allegro
comes from the overture to Handel's 1738 opera

style within a simple imitative texture, with

H Allegro Giocoso—Brahms/arr. Deborah Baker
Monday. This Brahms masterpiece is a joy to
hear and a thrill to play! Set in the bright key of D
major, it retains the slur over the beat that gives
the descending line its character. This line is then
offset with strong unison rhythmic motives that
drive the music ahead. An outstanding work to
open or close any concert! Highly recommended!
