In this sunny, playful piece, the notes and rhythms are basic, but there are great counting challenges and a minor key middle section that offers a nice contrast. Young players will find this accessible and look forward to playing the joyful melodies and sparkling accompaniments again and again. (2:00) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

Light and lively best describe this cut-time march that provides a nice sunday afternoon in the park feel. While the cut-time is prevalent, there is a brief section that changes to 6/8 that makes this march different from most.

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.

Young string musicians will enjoy performing this heavy rock style piece because it utilizes an aggressive style and mixed tonality similar to 'their' music that they listen to for fun. The concept behind the title of this piece is that, although we sometimes move dully through our daily routines, it is good to take time to appreciate the individual moments that make up our lives, like a child does the first time they experience something. All parts are in first position with few accidentals or difficult bowing patterns. At the same time, this piece will challenge your group with its independent voicings and syncopated, interlocking rhythms. This piece would add variety to any school concert, and would fit nicely in a festival program, especially one that utilized several different genres. (3:40).

A spirited arrangement and perfect for second year orchestras! Includes some foot stomping and finger tapping, not to mention a few high fives here and there. A hint of fiddling is also thrown in to bring the piece to a grand close. Starts in G Major, modulates to C Major, then moves into D Major.

Duration: 2:14.
