for Strings Score and Parts. Par . Twelve Days of Christmas, arranged by R. Scott Whittington, is a time-honored holiday favorite, equally popular with young and old. This arrangement for developing orchestra at Level 3, creates a festive mood with a warm introduction presented by solo violin andcello, which leads into several contrasting adaptations of the piece. A minor variation provides a moment of reflection, which pavesthe way for a stirring chorale version of the Twelve Days of Christmas concluding with a sweeping finale. Twelve Days of Christmas is idiomatically written for developing string players, and is scored in the lower positions to allow directors to focus on blend, intonation, and rhythmic accuracy. All sections are given interesting material to play. An optional part for orchestral bells provides a sparkly, flavor to the piece. / Date parution : 2022-07-30/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes
