This multi-level piece includes a full set of parts for grade 2 as well as a full set for grade 3 ensembles. Mix and match the parts as you need---perfect for mixed-ability ensembles! String Thang by Mark Wood is based on the twelve-bar blues. The blues has deep roots in American history, developed out of the work songs and chants of African-American slaves. The Great Migration of the first half of the 20th century saw freed slaves and their descendants move to northern and eastern parts of the U.S., taking their music with them. The blues took on different forms; in turn it helped to create rock, jazz, hip-hop, and other popular genres. A twelve-bar blues uses a repeating chord progression which allows musicians to express themselves creatively with each recurrence. If anything defines the blues, it is the use of blue notes---pitches that don't usually belong in a given key---and elements of improvisation. String Thang uses both blue notes in the main tune and the solo violin's part, as well as improvisational principles in the solo. For string orchestra with optional rock rhythm section parts.

Based on the classic fiddle tune Goin to Boston, this is a great hoedown number for strings. It comes complete with several special techniques found in all fiddle music, including bluesy note slides, shuffle bowings, hand slaps, and foot stomps (specific performance directions for each are included in Frank's score notes). Some easy double stops are also included, but Frank advises that they be assigned only to advanced students and incorporated gradually as players become more familiar with the music.

Starting with a movement in the composer's most eruptive and jagged style it continues with music of bouncing ebullience whose wayward lyricism incorporates Turnage's characteristically vital bluesy inflections. The second movement places sombre, troubled gestures within an atmosphere of stillness and restraint. A scherzo follows, restless and slithery. But its in the slow, uneasy finale that the note of inner reflection reaches its most personal and eloquently expressive apogee.
