the end of the rousing conclusion.

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

Dazzling violin solos (both lyrical and technical) and highly rhythmic
passages accompanied by drum set really set this work apart. Optional
piano and harp add to the sound of a work destined to bring down the house.
A great closer!

Broadway this millennium. In this stand-out selection from the show, the lead
characters lay out their plans for a victory, despite their personal hardships.
This arrangement for strings and a vocalist is a clever way to connect

One Bow Concerto—Richard Meyer.
Your audience will laugh out loud! A violinist, a violist and a cellist have
soloist seats in front of the orchestra, and they share just one bow, passing it
to one another just in the nick of time. The orchestra is all pizzicato, so there
really is only one bow. "But a cellist shouldn't use a violin bow," you think.
Right, so they stop passing it to him and the cellist shows what he thinks of
that! By the end the bow is in the hand of the conductor. Recommended as
a show-stopper!

Phantom Waltz—Chris Thomas. Inspired by a photo of a ghostly,
forgotten ballroom in Shanghai, Phantom Waltz is a melancholy echo of the
past. This 6/8 piece features two solo cellos, melodramatic melodies, and
colorful accidentals for dramatic effect. A cinematic, emotional, and richly
textured work for string orchestra. Optional viola solo parts are included.

a violin solo, violin duet, or a violin and viola duet. Set in its original key, the
solo part is the original version as played by Itzhak Perlman, accompanied
by the duet part and a rich string orchestra backdrop. A powerful and
dramatic program piece!

Vivaldi Rocks—Mark Wood. Combining the traditional Baroque style and
rock and roll, this piece for solo violin and orchestra will dazzle the concert
hall. This exciting piece works great with strings alone, but it also includes a

Winter from "The Four Seasons" (Second Movement)—
Antonio Vivaldi/arr. Tim McCarrick. This arrangement is simple enough
for the violin, viola, or cello soloist of your choice! Vivaldi's lyrical second
movement, now in G Major, stays true to the original with the famous melody
over pizzicato accompaniment. The violin solo is entirely in first position, and
the viola and cello soloists only need to know the first three notes they learn
in third position: D, E, and F sharp on the A string!
