John Corigliano (b. 1938) is an American composer. One of his most enjoyable compositions is The Mannheim Rocket, commissioned by the Mannheim orchestra in the year 2000. It takes inspiration from theRocket of the title – a famous compositional device invented by the orchestra in the 1700s. From there it swiftly traverses 200 years of German music, cleverly hiding quotes from some of the most famous orchestralworks of the era, rising to its zenith before falling back to earth – exactly as a real rocket would.
Described by the composer as a “marvellous journey”, this orchestral piece is one of the mostentertaining in the repertoire – both to play and to listen to.

The suite from the cycle 'Ploner Musiktag' (1932) was structured according to the exact instrumentation directions of the composer and completed with a percussion part ad lib. Particular attraction is caused by the different instrumentation of the four movements which, how-ever, takes into consideration the conditions of school practice.

We welcome Joshua Reznicow to the Kendor family of writers with this festive original that sounds more difficult to play than it is. Written in G major and its relevant minor key, it gives directors a chance to teach both sharp and flat keys while using open strings to maintain a solid pitch center. Controlling bow speed and style using hooked bow, spiccato, and slurred techniques helps to drive the musical energy throughout. Short solos and a brief violin cadenza lead to a rewarding finish and allow more advanced players to showcase their skills. Duration ca. 3:40. Available in SmartMusic.

And they're off! This quick-sprint rondo challenges students with constantly changing meters, but uses only the simplest rhythms, fingerings, and bowings---all within a D-major framework.

A 7-part rondo form provides the players repetition opportunities to solidify the meter changes and maximize learning.
