for Strings Score and Parts. Par . Twelve Days of Christmas, arranged by R. Scott Whittington, is a time-honored holiday favorite, equally popular with young and old. This arrangement for developing orchestra at Level 3, creates a festive mood with a warm introduction presented by solo violin andcello, which leads into several contrasting adaptations of the piece. A minor variation provides a moment of reflection, which pavesthe way for a stirring chorale version of the Twelve Days of Christmas concluding with a sweeping finale. Twelve Days of Christmas is idiomatically written for developing string players, and is scored in the lower positions to allow directors to focus on blend, intonation, and rhythmic accuracy. All sections are given interesting material to play. An optional part for orchestral bells provides a sparkly, flavor to the piece. / Date parution : 2022-07-30/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

These three short chorales (G major, G minor, G major) are excellent warm-up exercises, but would also be very useful for training ensembles to listen for pure intonation. Vibrato and tone quality could also be focused upon, as well as watching the conductor for pauses and upbeats. Dynamics are suggested to assist with the shaping of phrases. Each chorale can stand alone, as a processional or recessional for special occasions and ceremonies, such as assemblies or parades, or can be performed as one work. Independent reading and accurate counting are essential here. Bowing can also be adjusted if desired. / Orchestre A Cordes
