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.

Here's another winner that will serve well as a concert opener for young orchestras. Frolic is in D Major and actually features portions of the scale in its opening melody. Beginning students will feel comfortable performing this piece and they will sound great because of the smart scoring by middle school educator and composer, Kathy Cook.

Here comes Mystical Portal, the third of Jeremy Woolstenhulme's pieces in his highly popular Mystical series!
