Peter Ilyitch Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) originally dedicated his CONCERTO FOR VIOLIN in D, Op. 35, to Leopold Auer. The Hungarian violinist concluded that it was too difficult. The concerto finally premiered on December 4, 1881, Adolph Brodsky performing the solo part with the Vienna Philharmonic under the direction of Hans Richter. Influential 18th century music critic Eduard Hanslick's complaint about the length of the concerto gradually succumbed to its growing reputation as a challenging yet irresistibly melodic touchstone for aspiring violinists all over the world. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 4.2.1(opt.).0: Timp: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Solo Violin in set. Reprint edition.

First published and recorded in 1954 (only included at the time on the album "A Leroy Anderson Pops' Concert"), this lovely piano instrumental was released as a UK single in 1957 and hit the charts in early summer.  Decca then issued the track on 45 in the U.S. which enjoyed a moderate success.  Anderson later recorded stereo version of Forgotten Dreams in 1959. The composition features a haunting, romantic melody and its performance is within the reach of most late-intermediate pianists. Written in D major, it contains expressive tempo variations, an animated B section, and arpeggiated chords which require a bit of stretching. Instrumentation: Piano Solo: 2.2.2.2: Saxes(AAT, opt): 4.3.3.0: Bells: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).

Puttin' on the Pizz by Chris Bernotas is sure to become a favorite selection of students and directors. The descending bass line sets the stage for this fun piece. All notes stay in first position and the string orchestra plays pizzicato throughout. Students also have the chance to act as the percussion section. With the optional use of 'swinging' eighth notes, Puttin' on the Pizz could be a fun way to introduce a jazzy style to the string orchestra. Everyone in the audience (and in the orchestra) will be tapping their toes to this piece. Violin 2 and Viola are doubled, as are Cello and String Bass, which will work perfectly for younger string orchestras. Correlated to Sound Innovations for String Orchestra, Book 1, Level 4. (2:30) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

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.
