CLASSICAL SELECTIONS medium-easy
The Sleigh Ride (from Three German Dances,
K. 605)—W.A. Mozart/arr. Ken Selden. A
brilliant, accurate, and very playable adaptation
for young string orchestra of the classic
Mozart masterpiece. With meticulous editing
of bowings and fingerings, your ensemble
will gain invaluable experience playing in the
classical style.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice—Paul Dukas/
arr. Andrew Balent. This orchestral classic was
the only selection to be featured in the original
Fantasia film and sixty years later in Fantasia
2000! Now it is arranged in a version your
students can play. Playable by string orchestra
or full orchestra, this arrangement avoids much
of the introductory material to get right into the
most familiar parts.

2472122 Additional Score . . . . . . . . .10.00
Suite in D Major (from Sonata a Quattro
(WoO 4))—Archangelo Corelli/arr. Robert
D. McCashin. This authentic and accessible
arrangement is an excellent introduction to
the compositional style of Corelli as well as
the styles and form of the Baroque period.
Containing four of the original five movements,
this work may be played as a suite or presented
in separate movements.

11349015 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 6.00
Swan Lake—P.I. Tchaikovsky/arr. Michael
Hopkins. This unabridged arrangement
remains very true to the original while
making this beautiful music playable by string
orchestra. The key has been changed from
B minor to E minor so all parts remain in first
position. This is a great piece for teaching
legato and tremolo bowing, expressive
phrasing, triplet rhythms, accelerando and
ritardando. A stirring arrangement!
10305939 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .49.00
10305940 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 6.00
Symphony No. 1—Ludwig van Beethoven/
arr. Christina Hans. Add the thrill and energy of
Beethoven to your next concert without having
to shift! This simplified setting offers many
learning opportunities, including dynamics,
bowing style, dotted notes, accents and
sixteenth notes.
10453635 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .49.00
10453683 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 7.00
Symphony No. 19 (Movement 4)—Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart/arr. Carrie Lane Gruselle.
Written by a 16-year-old Mozart, this movement
in rondo form has distinct key centers
to establish hand patterns and excellent
intonation. True to the Classical style, the
energetic melody and accompaniment figures
reinforce off-the-string bowing and develop
speed and facility. Rich with pedagogical and
musical opportunities!
11203129 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .60.00
11203130 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 5.00
Symphony No. 7, Mvt. 2—Ludwig van
Beethoven/arr. Tai Fraction. This arrangement
of the timeless Beethoven theme, set in the
key of D minor, is a great opportunity to give
young orchestras access to essential classical
literature. Students will reinforce high and
low second fingers, hooked bowings, and
keeping a steady tempo. Cellos use minimal
second position.
11355514 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .45.00
11355515 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 8.00
Symphony No. 8, D.759 "Unfinished" -
Mvt. 2—Franz Schubert/arr. Jeff Bailey. The
Andante movement showcases Schubert's
genius for composing beautiful and flowing
melodies. This well-crafted arrangement
captures the warmth throughout the movement
just as it was originally composed. A must for
developing orchestras.
11398770 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .52.00
11398784 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 7.00
Telemann Allegro—Georg Philipp Telemann/
arr. Steven Frackenpohl. From Concerto
for Two Horns and Strings, TWV 52:Es1 by
Georg Philipp Telemann, this arrangement
gives players the opportunity to experience the
energy of Baroque music. Perfect for working
on Baroque bowing and terraced dynamics.
Duration 2:50.

Theme from Symphony No. 1, Mvt. 3—
Gustav Mahler/arr. Brad Pfeil. This versatile
arrangement is a great showcase for your
bass players and also provides an optional
harp feature. The famous opening solo can be
played in first position or thumb position and as
a bass solo or soli with an optional timpani part.
While mostly in first position, this piece offers
great opportunities for all instruments to explore
higher positions. Students will love the simplicity
of Mahler's haunting melody, while being
challenged to maintain a slow, steady tempo.
10304743 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .65.00
10304744 Additional Score . . . . . . . . .10.00
The Viol Habit (A Feature for Double Bass)—
Paul W. Whear/arr. Jennifer Davenport. This
staple of the bass solo repertoire is now
available as a feature for your bass section.
The orchestral accompaniment is very light
and requires good counting skills, but nothing
over a Grade 2. The robust, bouncy first theme
in D major and 2/4 is followed by a lyric waltz
section in G major. The first theme returns for
the grand finale.
11355516 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .45.00
11355517 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 8.00
Viva Amadeus! (based on "Eine Kleine
Nachtmusik")—Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart/
arr. Richard Meyer. What begins with the
universally recognizable introduction to Eine
Kleine Nachtmusik makes an unexpected turn
"south of the border" in this fresh and creative
Latin take on the classic Mozart masterpiece.
Latin rhythms with syncopations and triplets are
explored. Optional Latin percussion provides
the perfect spice. Sure to be a concert favorite!
11354972 String Orchestra . . . . . . . . .50.00
11354973 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 9.00
Waltz No. 2 (Young Edition)—arr. Stanley
Hoffman. The great masterpiece expertly
scored for young string orchestra.

11523028 Additional Score . . . . . . . . .10.00
William Tell Overture (Finale)—Rossini/arr.
Sandra Dackow. One of the most famous of
all overtures, thanks in part to its use as a TV
theme. While somewhat challenging, there
are optional easy string and percussion parts
included that make this a very useful edition.
What a concert opener this would make!
2172062 String Orchestra,
Percussion Optional . . . . . .70.00
8057002 Additional Score . . . . . . . . .12.00
Zadok the Priest (Coronation Anthem No.
1)—G.F. Handel/arr. Douglas E. Wagner.
Handel's four coronation anthems have
been a cherished part of British coronation
services from George II in 1727 to Charles III
in 2023. This, Handel's first, is a magnificently
resplendent work that embodies the essence of
British pride and spirit. This terrific arrangement
for string orchestra and piano encapsulates the
majesty of the original. This arrangement is
also part of a larger festival setting with optional
brass, timpani, and choir. The choir settings in
several voicings are available separately.
