for String Orchestra Score. Par PROKOFIEV SERGEI / LATHAM LYNNE (Arr.).

There is an optional cut for those that don't wish to tackle the entire movement. An advanced ensemble will get valuable experience expanding range, expression and speed of bow and fingers!/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

for String Orchestra Score. Par HAENDEL GEORG FRIEDRICH. In the key of G Major, the work begins with a Moderato where dotted rhythms are abundant. A brief Adagio intervenes and we continue with a slightly fugal, crisply rhythmic Allegro, with 16th note passage work for the upper strings. After another brief Adagio, Handel finishes with a lyric Minuet. All sections are active throughout. This Overture is a wonderful introduction to the Baroque period and the bowing and ornamental styles that go with it./ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

Par PART ARVO. This piece is Pärt's tribute to Benjamin Britten who died in 1976. Arvo Pärt: In the past years we have had many losses in the world of music to mourn. Why did the date of Benjamin Britten's death - 4 December 1976 - touch such a chord in me? During this time I was obviously at the point where I could recognize the magnitude of such a loss. Inexplicable feelings of guilt, more than that even, arose in me. I had just discovered Britten for myself. Just before his death I began to appreciate the unusual purity of his music - I had had the impression of the same kind of purity in the ballads of Guillaume de Machaut. And besides, for a long time I had wanted to meet Britten personally - and now it would not come to that. 'The last chord of Cantus is seemingly never-ending. It just stands there, neither growing nor decaying. Something has been achieved and it shouldn't be given up. The content of the whole work leads up to this point.' Nora Pärt/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes et Cloche

for String Orchestra Score. Par SIBELIUS JEAN / LATHAM LYNNE (Arr.). This arrangement keeps the dramatic character of the original, but in changing the key to D minor, avoids some of the messy chromaticism.

This rousing work will most certainly enhance the tone production of your group!/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes
