This melody became so popular that Italian lyrics were added and it has a second life as the song, Nella Fantasia. Oscar winning composer Ennio Morricone has provided Hollywood with some of its monumental film scores, including this engaging music from "The Mission." This memorable theme can feature either an oboe, a flute, or solo violin backed by an impressive, rich string orchestral accompaniment. 10033632 String Orchestra........ME 50.00 Gloria in Excelsis Deo—Antonio Vivaldi/ arr. Don Brubaker. It's Vivaldi's Gloria - without the singers! This string orchestra arrangement of Vivaldi's choral masterwork is the perfect introduction for young string players. It retains the composer's key of D Major and features solo/ soli parts for your advanced players. Teach or reinforce hooked bowing in each section of the orchestra. Everyone will enjoy the rhythmic vitality and harmonic beauty of this enduring masterwork. 10050383 String Orchestra..........E 49.00 Invicta—Soon Hee Newbold. Showcase a student or bring in a guest artist to perform with your beginning students! Includes advanced solo violin and viola parts along with easier violin and viola solos as options.

VE-M 75.00 Irish Legend—Robert Kerr & Soon Hee Newbold. Showcase your strings with fire and flair in the style of Riverdance and traditional Celtic music! Written by Robert Kerr and arranged for strings by Soon Hee Newbold, this air and jig is a dramatic finale to any concert. 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! 10047958 String Orchestra......... M 70.00 La Folia (for 1—Arcangelo Corelli/ arr. Caryn Wiegand Neidhold. Now viola, cello, and bass students can join the violins in atperforming this time-honored piece by Corelli.

MA 55.00 My Shot (from "Hamilton")—Lin-Manuel Miranda/arr. Larry Moore. "Hamilton" is without question the most creative, talked-about musical to hit 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 students with American history! 10628859 String Orchestra......... M 55.00 Oblivion—Astor Piazzolla/arr. Robert Longfield. Originally composed for chamber ensemble, this sultry tango features a violin, flute or oboe solo with string orchestra. A lovely piece that is incredibly expressive and emotional. 10374202 String Orchestra........ME 50.00 The 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! 2475422 String Orchestra..........E 62.00 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. 10846066 String Orchestra......... M 65.00 Prelude in B Minor (Solo Cello or Cello Section Feature)—Frédéric Chopin/arr. Ben Hawkins. If you have an outstanding cellist or a cello section ready for the spotlight, this arrangement is a great choice for your middle or high school orchestra. It showcases rich, noble sonorities through a C string retuned down to B, allowing the cello to resonate with remarkable depth and power. An expressive choice for showing off a standout player or section. 11686788 String Orchestra........ME 75.00 Rio de los Suenos (River of Dreams)— Mike Lewis. A light Latin-style ballad places the bass clarinet in the spotlight, with an optional tenor saxophone substitution available. Expressive writing highlights the solo line's warmth and flexibility, while extended range requirements present the primary challenge. Offering a fresh stylistic approach and a rare featured role, this piece adds welcome variety and color to the repertoire. 11684436 Full Orchestra........... M 80.00 Theme from Schindler's List— John Williams/arr. Robert Longfield & Amy Barlowe. This special edition of John Williams' eloquent theme is arranged to feature 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! 10041857 String Orchestra for Violin Solo, Violin Duet or Violin/Viola Duet...........ME 65.00 The Simplest of Gifts—Mat Campbell. Gentle lyricism defines this arrangement for string orchestra featuring a solo violinist. Neoclassical scoring and canonic lines reimagine a well-known melody with warmth and restraint, ensuring interest for every section. While the solo line requires confident range control, the overall writing remains accessible, making it a thoughtful choice for ensembles with a strong violin student seeking a piece with expressive depth. 11686247 String Orchestra........ME 60.00 Spring Springs (Gigue for Solo String Player & String Orchestra)—Josh Trentadue. Dancing melodies & spritely rhythms are the guiding forces behind this introduction to the concerto style!

A unique work for full orchestra and solo oboe that blends rock-ballad intensity with jazz sonority, supported by parts for piano, jazz bass, and drum set. Tender lyrical writing highlights expressive phrasing and balance between soloist and ensemble. An ideal concert feature that showcases a strong oboist's expressive range while offering seasoned ensembles a stylistic change of pace. 11684433 Full Orchestra w/ Oboe Solo.......... MA 85.00 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! 10049864 String Orchestra w/ Violin, Viola or Cello Solo ........E 49.00
