This work features all of your school district's string orchestras at once and was written to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Freeport, Illinois orchestra program. The piece combines elementary, middle school, and high school string orchestras each playing age-appropriate material, making for the perfect closer to an 'All-City,' multi-level concert. During the course of this energetic rondo, each group is featured on their own melody. As the piece unfolds, the melodies are creatively combined, keeping all the players 'on their toes' and active at all times. Grade levels for the three groups are: Elementary - Grade 1.5 - Middle school - Grade 2.5 - High school - Grade 3.5. (4:45) / Orchestre A Cordes

Par HAENDEL GEORG FRIEDRICH. Jim Palmer's arrangement of Music for the Royal Fireworks is an exciting two-movement work that is perfect for your young string orchestra.

A perfect opener or closer to any concert. (3:15) / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes
