Spy Games

This exciting piece pays homage to the
many novels, films, and television programs

catchy melodies that make use of swung
rhythms. These melodies, coupled with

This traditional Irish tune is at the top of
most fiddle player's favorites list. It has
lots of musical interest because of the two
contrasting sections. The first section, in E

make it quite a show piece; the D major
section offers a pleasant harmonic change.

Pastoral Symphony
Ludwig van Beethoven/Christina Hans.
This arrangement of movement one,
"awakening of cheerful feelings upon arrival
in the countryside," depicts the composer's
love of nature. With the 2nd year student in
mind, it has simplified rhythms and all first
position.

Serenata Notturna
W.A. Mozart/Todd Parrish.
This carefree, yet majestic-sounding
work was likely written to be enjoyed
at an evening party in Vienna. It's been
rescored with optional timpani to be played
seamlessly by a traditional string orchestra
It's a great piece to refine the brush stroke
and introduce light classical playing.

Theme With Academic Variations
Traditional/Jeffrey S. Bishop.
Written for string orchestra with narrator,
Jeffrey has taken the "Twinkle" theme
and given it an academic once-over. After
introducing the theme, the orchestra then
performs "variations" of it: a version with
85% of the notes correct; 93% correct; 100%
but with poor musicianship; and finally "as
perfect as possible." It's a real eye-opener
for parents, community members, and
administrators.

Giddy-Up!

passages that reach up to the violin E string.
