Bach and Before for Strings (Four-Part
Chorales from the 16th, 17th, and 18th
Centuries)—David Newell. Four-part chorales
are a great way to improve ensemble playing. And,
since each book includes all four voices - soprano,
alto, tenor, and bass - there are a number of
programming options. In addition to this, as the voice
parts are individually rehearsed and learned, the
students discover that all voice parts of a chorale
are important. When played in four-part harmony,
the chorales become naturally expressive, because
all students know all four parts and they understand
which voice should predominate at any given time.
Students love playing chorales, because they sound
so good! The chorales range in difficulty from very
easy to very sophisticated and are suitable for year
two through high school string orchestras. This is
the perfect book for helping students master the
important concepts of chorale performance.
