This original by one of the industry's top writers begins as a leisurely chorale that tunefully moves into a march. Extensive doubling of the 2nd Violin and viola parts allows directors to move more players to the 1st violin part. Along similar lines, the bass and cello parts are identical. The optional percussion part (2 copies included) for snare drum, bass drum and crash cymbals complements the march style nicely. Duration 2:40 (without optional repeat). Available in SmartMusic.

Expressive playing, some simple counterpoint, and a touch of pizzicato characterize this contemporary sounding but accessible piece in two contrasting sections, slow and lively. Duration: 3'15.
The definition of Air is a tune or melody, but often it is used to describe a piece that is lyrical in nature, as in the first section of this piece. The next section of the piece is called Caprice, which is the French word for capriccio. The term capriccio has been used as the title for a variety of different types of works throughout music history. It is used here in its literal definition which describes the fanciful, capricious nature of the second section of the piece.As part of the development of the piece, the minor material from the Air is used as bridge material in the Caprice section. The Air and Caprice should be very contrasting in style. Play the Air very sustained and chorale-like and the Caprice, light with forward motion. The tempo of the Caprice should not be too fast; however, the tempo can be adjusted down to accommodate the ability level of your ensemble. Bowings have not been over-marked, and no slurs are used; feel free to alter it if necessary.It has been my pleasure to have had the opportunity to write this piece. I hope that you and your students find it useful for your program.
