This energetic, modern-sounding selection was written to improve your students' reading of notes on the G string and is focused on this often-neglected lower range of the instruments. The minor and modal harmonies, hard-driving rhythms, and stunning dynamic contrasts all combine to give the piece a primal and primitive sound that students will love. A slow, introspective middle section provides a dramatic contrast to the piece's initial surge and will help develop bow control and steady pizzicato pulse. G Force by Richard Meyer is perfect for festival or contest! (2:50).

The range of expression is wide, moving from dance-like rhythms -- making use of irregular meters -- to rather dreamy textures. Throughout much of the work, even in the softer, more fantasy-like middle section, the use of percussion -- gongs, cowbells, and various drums -- is prevalent. --N.G.

This collection of seven pieces is suitable for young string players in the early stages of orchestral playing. The rhythms and notes used in all the parts are still quite basic, the third violin/viola being the easiest, but the overall effect is very satisfying for performer and listener. The Violin 3 and Viola parts are the same and the Double Bass part is optional. The optional Piano parts can be used in rehearsals or if any of the string parts are missing.
