Symphony No. 1 in D Major (Movement
II)—Gustav Mahler/arr. Sandra Dackow.
This scherzo-like 2nd movement from
Mahler's "First Symphony" is a vigorous,
exuberant work that evokes rustic good
times. Excellent for building confidence
and teaching aggressive playing, this is
a superb selection for both rehearsal and
performance!

Symphony No. 8 "Unfinished" - First
Movement—Franz Schubert/arr. Robert
D. McCashin. This works beautifully
with strings alone! From the mysterious
opening, to one of Schubert's best
melodies, to the dramatic conclusion, this
arrangement captures the essence of
Schubert's "Unfinished!" A powerful addition
to the string orchestra repertoire that your
students will enjoy performing.

Symphony No. 1—Joseph Bologne/arr.
Todd Parrish. One of only two symphonies
Bologne composed during his time in
France, this work reflects the influence of
his teachers and fellow composers in the
burgeoning Classical period. This joyful
Allegro features a spirited theme that is
developed mainly in the violin section,
supported by the lower strings. Originally
scored for two oboes, two horns, and
strings, this approachable arrangement
for string orchestra retains the original key
while seamlessly blending the wind and
string parts.

Symphony No. 2, Mvt. 1—Joseph
Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges/
arr. Dion Morales. This arrangement is a
wonderful introduction to the music of one
of Mozart's lesser-known contemporaries.
This work teaches sonata-allegro form
and provides a great opportunity to teach
classical bowing techniques including
multiple down-bows.

Symphony No. 39 in G Minor (First
Movement)—Joseph Haydn/arr. Stephen
Chin. This is the second of the Haydn
symphonies in a minor key. It is a classic
Sturm und Drang and accordingly reflects
strong changes of emotion. An excellent
choice for expanding classical repertoire
as well as reinforcing classical playing
techniques and playing in the key of G
minor.
11355429 String Orchestra . . . . . 55.00
Symphony No. 7 in D Minor (Third
Movement)—Antonin Dvorak/arr. Todd
Parrish. Though not as well known as
his famous eighth and ninth symphonies,
Dvorak's Symphony No. 7 is a masterpiece
worthy of serious study and performance.
The Scherzo movement has been abridged
and simplified from 6/4 to 6/8 for playability,
but the spirit of Dvorak comes through
clearly. Full of the composer's trademark
hemiola, this arrangement gives melody
and countermelodies to all parts and ends
with an exciting, powerful conclusion. The
optional timpani part gives even more
strength to your performance.

Symphony Op. 11, No. 2 (II. Andante &
III. Presto)—Joseph Bologne, Chevalier
de Saint-Georges/arr. Jennifer Meckler.
The two movements of this symphony are
to be performed attacca, with no pause
in between. The Andante movement
features a lyrical melody that is first heard
in the violins and then echoed by the violas,
cellos, and basses. The first violin part
requires shifting as high as third position,
and fingering suggestions are included.
The second violin part is active and requires
strong players; however, there is no shifting
involved. Both movements should use
tapered phrasing and light, clean, off-the-
string bow strokes. The cello part includes
a number of viola cues that can be helpful
if there is a smaller viola section in the
ensemble.

Themes from American Quartet
(Movement 1)—Antonin Dvorak/arr. Jamin
Hoffman. Composed shortly after his iconic
"New World" symphony, Dvorak's American
Quartet reflects the composer's fondness
for America acquired during his tenure in
New York and vacation in Iowa. Featuring
pentatonic scales and American folk-like
melodies, the quartet has emerged as
Dvorak's most popular chamber work.

Themes from Carmen—Georges Bizet/
arr. Carrie Lane Gruselle. This accessible
arrangement is based on four well-known
themes from Bizet's popular opera:
Prelude; Aragonaise; Habanera and Danse
Boheme. From the foreboding introduction
to the dancing and swirling ending, this
spectacular arrangement has it all!

10752907 Additional Score . . . . . 12.00
Themes from "Romeo and Juliet"—P.I.
Tchaikovsky/arr. Carrie Lane Gruselle. Gift
your string orchestra these expertly distilled
themes from Tchaikovsky's orchestral saga
of the most dramatic teenagers in love.
This handful of excerpts presents ample
expressive material and a grand emotional
range found in the most memorable
Shakespearian love story.

Three Norwegian Dances—Halfdan
Kjerulf/arr. Katie O'Hara LaBrie. This
fantastic mini-suite features the music
of Halfdan Kjerulf, a predecessor of
and influence on Edvard Grieg. The
work includes the lively and animated
Intermezzo, the lyrical Spring Dance with
a waltz-like quality, and the fiery Brureslatt.
Incredible music that engages all sections
of the orchestra! (5:00)

11568821 Additional Score . . . . . 10.00
Troika (from "Lieutenant Kije")—Sergei
Prokofiev/arr. Stephen Wieloszynski. This
charming number takes its name from a
Russian sleigh called a "troika," pulled by
three horses and common in wintertime.
The melody is really quite familiar, bright
and bouncy as it evokes the sleigh. Parts
are carefully edited for school age players,
and many techniques are included, but can
be omitted if too hard. Optional percussion
parts are included. This would be a great
choice for a wintertime concert!

the Black Composer Revival Consortium
11602033 String Orchestra . . . . . 41.00
A Ukrainian Symphony (Symphony in
C: I. Allegro molto)—Maxim Berezovsky/
arr. Cindy Hill. This well-crafted
arrangement of a lesser-known work will
make an excellent addition to any concert
and contest program.

Viola Concerto (Second Movement)—
G.P. Telemann/arr. Todd Parrish. Not
just for the viola section! Both violins
and violas get the exuberant melody in
this very playable arrangement of the
Baroque classic. Violists will appreciate the
opportunity to showcase the beauty and
power of their instrument.

10444036 Additional Score . . . . . 12.00
Waltz from Masquerade Suite—Aram
Khachaturian/arr. Lynne Latham. This
whimsical theme is perfect for teaching
intervals and chromatic fingerings. Violas
use half position, and first violins will shift
to third position. Cellos and violas are
featured in the second theme, and this
abridged arrangement omits the middle
section. A great Halloween concert
selection for a capable high school or
community orchestra.

11609519 Additional Score . . . . . 10.00
Waltz No. 2—Dimitri Shostakovich/arr.
Paul Lavender. Shostakovich's waltz
has become an international icon, made
popular by artists like Andre Rieu and
heard prominently in Stanley Kubrick's
final film, "Eyes Wide Shut." Taken
from Shostakovich's "Suite for Variety
Orchestra," Paul Lavender's skillful
adaptation is ideally suited to both serious
and light programming.

10095995 Additional Score . . . . . . 7.50
Zampa Overture—J. Ferdinand Herold/
arr. Deborah Baker Monday. The overture
from "Zampa," an opera by Ferdinand
Herold, has become a staple of orchestral
literature since its first performance in 1831.
Just under four minutes, this arrangement
presents four themes from the original
and contains lots of drama and even more
excitement. The key of G major provides
easily accessible third-position work for the
first violins and shifting for cello and bass. A
great concert or festival selection!
