The dignity and pageantry of so much British music for orchestra is capÂtured in this solid work for strings. The straightforward melodic lines are supported by clean, full harmonies; and the polyphonic texture is highlightÂed in a contrasting key in the middle portion of the work. Strong lines and rhythms bring the piece to a solid conclusion.String editing by Amy Rosen.

Students focus on dynamics and articulations, with staccato eighth notes performed off the string. A dynamic and engaging crowd pleaser!

The occasion for the composition, described as a âsuite in the old styleâ, was the 200th birthday of the Norwegian-Danish poet Ludvik Holberg (1684-1754), which was celebrated in Bergen with several festive events. Initially, a piano version of the work was written in August 1884, but the composer already had the arrangement for string orchestra in mind, which he made just one month later. As a starting point, Grieg chose baroque dance movements from Holberg's era, but skilfully combined them with elements of his own tonal language, such as chromatic progressions and dynamic swells. The orchestral version of the âHolberg Suiteâ, which was very successful right from the beginning, is still one of Grieg's most popular compositions today and now enriches the Henle programme for string orchestra.

Using only six notes and no eighth notes, this classically inspired work was written for the very beginning string student. The first movement, The Holly and the Ivy, presents a lyrical treatment that also makes use of piano. The second movement is set in a Baroque style and highlights various motifs from Jingle Bells. Ideal for the first holiday concert and quite unique!

The musical effect of Prarie Lullaby should be graceful and serene, evocative of a peaceful night on the open plains. To that end, players will need to strive for an unlabored rhythmic flow, smooth bowing and a clear, steady tone as close to p as possible.Beginning at m.39, the violin and viola parts are marked pizzicato. If young players are unable to return quickly to argo at m.53, they may make the bow preparation easier by taking a full measure rest at m.52. This option is marked in the parts and score.The divisi notes at m. 69 are provided for ensembles which lack violas. Ensembles with violas may have them play the lower notes while the second violins play the upper notes.Percussion, which is completely optional, should be very subdued. Choose a bell mallet which allows the tones to be heard just above the strings. the woodblock part is intended to imitate the clip-clop sound of a horse's hooves. Two different sizes of woodblocks or temple blocks are needed. Finding two suitable sounds on one woodblock is difficult. Again, the right mallets are very important. The suspended cymbal should be played with brushes if the string ensemble is small. If the suspended cymbal with brushes cannot be heard above a large number of strings, then sticks should be used instead.The percussion part can be performed by one player, provided the instruments and mallets are set up properly and the player has the skill to make the transitions smoothly. Note the optional rest at mm. 53-54.Performance time with the repeat is two and a half minutes.

In 1884 the Norwegian city of Bergen celebrated the 200th birthday of Ludvig Holberg, one of its most famous sons and a symbolic figure of the late Baroque era. For this occasion Grieg wrote the piano suite Aus Holbergs Zeit , which he orchestrated for string orchestra. To this day, the Suite - particularly in this arrangement - ranks among Grieg's most popular works. By using the romantic string sound, Grieg brings the late Baroque orchestral suite and its various dance forms to life again. Along with the string serenades of Dvorak and Tchaikovsky, Aus Holbergs Zeit is regarded as the third great late-romantic work for string orchestra. Breitkopf is currently preparing the release of new and complete performance material in the framework of its cooperation with Eulenburg.Breitkopf is currently preparing the release of new and complete performance material in the framework of its cooperation with Eulenburg.

Exploring mature harmonies while a single note lingers throughout the entire work, this powerful piece will leave you breathless. Orchestrated for strings and piano, the music moves through a series of sections that become increasingly intense, all while the note G sounds nonstop from the first measure until the final chord. The haunting sound of voices (members of the ensemble) eventually fade into a soft hum before the music reaches is final chord and ultimate resolution. Simply stunning.
