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.
