Viola-Violn-Many selections in this volume are unique and until now have been inaccessible to the string ensemble repertoire. These pieces are intended for multiple strings for performance in the classroom as well as performance in concerts.Several players may be used on each part. Whenever possible every effort was made to keep the viola and violoncello/double bass parts melodic rather than simply filling in the various harmonic chord progressions. The pieces maybe performed as a solo for each instrument (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola or Cello) with piano accompaniment or as duets or trios as well as full orchestra. If performed with full orchestra the piano accompaniment is not necessary.The string ensemble series meets all standards for ASTA with NSOA (American String Teachers Association/National School Orchestra Association) and Suzuki Association of the Americas Inc. Free piano accompaniment AND ensemblescore downloads are available for use with this title.

Book with Audio and Video Access. Preface by Jay Ungar, composer of Ashokan Farewell. A Festival of Violin

In late 1779 Mozart penned this delectable classic which stands as the only remaining Mozart composition in this form incorporating both symphonic and concerto styles. It features wonderful parts for both of the soloinstruments against Mozart's incomparably brilliant writing and orchestration. We have also included two wonderful Mozart bon-bons The E-major Adagio KV364; and the C-major Rondo KV373. A magical and exciting experienceto perform this alongside virtuoso Jürgen Klos at the viola and Les Orpheistes Chamber Orchestra under the baton of Joel Mathias Jenny. A classic not to be missed by any violinist! Includes slow-tempo practice accompanimentsof the faster outer movements.
