Classical medium-easy
n Allegretto (Symphony No. 7, Movement 2)
Beethoven/arr. McCashin. The second movement
of Beethoven's "Symphony No. 7" has enormous
popularity with performers and audiences. This
thoughtful version goes beyond a cursory repeat
of the famous theme by including developmental
material from the movement, giving a more
complete understanding of Beethoven's intent.
This remains faithful to the original and makes for
an excellent performance! Highly recommended!

n Allegro con Brio (from "Symphony No. 5")
Ludwig van Beethoven/arr. John O'Neill. Crafted
into a sturdy string orchestra arrangement, the
striking and oh so familiar movement of Beethoven's
seminal "Symphony No. 5" is the model introduction
to one of the poignant works in Classical music
history. Condensed from the movement's usual
seven-minute average playing time into a tidy 2:20,
Beethoven's impressive mastery resounds!

short, making it a great choice for a quick change
of pace selection. (Solo ME, Orch ME)

n Allegro Giocoso (Symphony 4, Movement 3)
Brahms/arr. Monday. This Brahms masterpiece
is a joy to hear and a thrill to play! Set in the bright
key of D major, it retains the slur over the beat that
gives the descending line its character. This line is
then offset with strong unison rhythmic motives that
drive the music ahead. An outstanding work to open
or close any concert! Highly recommended!

18th century aria is very simple, yet expressive and
provides an easy introduction for students to the style
of the Classical period. In addition, the Classic style
is maintained in the accompaniment with an easy
version of an Alberti bass figure and the undulating

earlier time with your developing ensemble.

Autumn from "The Four Seasons"Vivaldi/
arr. Meyers. One of the earliest examples of
tone painting, Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons" are a
staple of the orchestral repertoire. This energetic
movement from Autumn depicts a hunt on a crisp
fall morning and is full of terraced dynamics,
hooked bowings and dotted rhythms. The original
violin solo has been simplified and distributed to
two solo violins with solo cello accompaniment. Full
and mature-sounding, yet very playable by less-
experienced students.

violin and viola players. As a performance piece,
it's clean and flashy!

No. 1;" Hallelujah Chorus; Jesu, Joy of Man's
Desiring; Bacchanal from "Samson and Delilah" and

history while playing music that's just plain fun!

chance to really use their fingers, while the lower
voices provide a great supporting role throughout.
