for string or full orchestra, both new and
experienced students get to enjoy the
excitement of Offenbach's famous dance.
The piece can be performed with strings only,
with parts for beginning, intermediate, and
advanced levels. Or, add optional advanced

advanced players only. The perfect grand
finale to your pyramid concert that will motivate
young musicians with a great sense of pride
and accomplishment!

Cumberland Cross—Carl Strommen. Sure
to delight, the central portion of this original
piece brings the unrestrained exuberance of
bluegrass fiddling to the orchestra. In a lovely
contrast, the piece opens and closes with a
slow chorale, bringing to mind sunset and
sunrise over the mountains.

Dark Adventure—Ralph Ford. It's ghostly! It's
creepy! Your orchestra will love it! From the
driving opening motives to the quirky gypsy-
sounding theme, this is haunted-house music
at its best! You can play this with either full or
string orchestra, but the percussion section is
really vital and should be used in both cases.
This is recommended and will thrill and delight
your audience! A winner!

Engines of Resistance—Larry Clark. You
will want to program this thrilling music often!
As the title implies, there is dramatic tension
between opposing forces in the orchestra:
a light ostinato pattern opposes a heavy,
aggressive melody; bursts of percussion ring
out against quieter moments in the orchestra,
and all these conflicting elements come
together for an incredible finish! Can be
performed as strings and percussion, or as a
full orchestra. A contest winner!

Field Day—Chris M. Bernotas. Your

orchestra. A fantastic piece for your students'
first full-orchestra experience!

exciting piece will transport your intermediate
orchestra to the ancient civilization of the Incas.

rhythmic accompaniments, and exciting
percussion parts, this piece can be performed

added winds and percussion as possible, up

Millennium—Richard Meyer. This

playable tour de force for the student orchestra.

5730296 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . . 9.00
Prairie Dance—Zachary Docter. In Zach
Docter's Prairie Dance, every instrument gets
a chance to shine. A simple tune starts in the
clarinets. As the melody passes through the
ensemble, it grows louder before culminating
in a rhythmic Americana-esque fiddle tune
that would make Copland proud. After this
spirited climax, the music winds down before
ending quietly with the clarinets, precisely as
it began. Transparent orchestration allows
students to gain experience playing in thin
textures, which may be a new experience at
this grade level. (2:30)

11568788 Additional Score . . . . ME 10.00
Second Storm—Robert W. Smith. Inspired by
the devastating hurricane season during the
summer of 2004, this begins with a melodic
"calm before the storm" introduction; and as the
fury of Mother Nature is unleashed, the work
develops using strong unison impacts with
driving rhythmic figures to capture the intensity
of the event in sound. Your intermediate
orchestra will sound big and bold.

Slavonic Dance No. 7—Antonin Dvorak/arr.
Richard Meyer. Faithful to the original, Richard
Meyer's arrangement of Dance No. 7 retains
Dvorak's bold and brilliant orchestration, with
exciting and meaningful parts for every
instrument. Your students and audience will
love the immediately appealing melodies, the
delightful shifts from major to minor modes, and
the imaginative canonic effects that permeate
this work. (3:30)
11511851 Full Orchestra . . . . . . ME 75.00
11511930 Additional Score . . . . ME 10.00
Slingshot—Michael Story. This flexible original
work will provide the opportunity for an entire
instrumental program to perform together. Also
perfect for a first full orchestra experience with
plenty of doubling, it can be performed by string
orchestra alone or with almost any combination
of winds or percussion. Includes optional piano.
