Maiden's Rescue, in D Major, includes note and rest values limited to quarter notes/rests, half notes, and whole rests. It can be successfully performed at a range of tempos, depending on the experience level of the orchestra. Rather than writing for 1st and 2nd violins, this piece features a single violin part.Jeremy Woolstenhulme composed this work for his beginning string orchestra. He decided that it should be a programmatic work accompanied by a short story and artwork. Once students became comfortable with the music and story, Mr. Woolstenhulme assigned an art project to them! Some samples of their work are printed in this publication. Connecting music, creative writing, and visual arts strengthened the entire experience and students definitely enjoyed the process.

Each string orchestra work offers extended learning opportunities and briefly taps into one or more elements related to common core state standards.

Level 2 builds on the concepts introduced in level 1 by opening with a review of the major and minor fingering patterns on all four strings. Attention throughout the method is given to presenting material that makes use of the entire tonal range of the instrument in the first position for the upper strings, and the first three positions for the lower strings. Five ensembles and two duets round out Level 2. Suitable for concerts, the ensembles include America; We Shall Overcome; Amaryllis; Surprise Symphony Theme; and Military March. Suitable for any class size or instrumentation, all string parts have the melody and one harmony part. The Teacher Score/Keyboard books for Levels 1 and 2 include piano accompaniments for much of the program music and ensembles. Especially composed for educators with modest piano-playing skills, the accompaniments can also be played by piano students who wish to become involved in the ensemble experience.
