String Quartet - Grade 3 SKU: AP.36-52703617 Composed by Alan Shulman. This edition: Latham Music. Quartet; Solo Small Ensembles; String - Quartet. LudwigMasters - Latham Music. Book. LudwigMasters Publications #36-52703617. Published by LudwigMasters Publications (AP.36-52703617). UPC: 735816385521. English. This humorous little vignette for string quartet was composed in 1979 and was originally intended to be published by Piedmont Music, the ASCAP division of EB Marks Classical. For reasons unknown, however, it remained in manuscript form until 2021, when a copy of the composer's autograph parts was discovered in the archives of a completely different Alan Shulman piece. This newly engraved Latham Music edition therefore represents the first publication of Shulman's delightful work, as well as the first full score. As the title suggests, this is a medium-slow rag, or cakewalk in a loose AABA form. The bluesy and graceful main melody is introduced by the first violin in a call and response exchange with the rest of the ensemble. The restatement of the primary theme is led by the second violin, with the entire ensemble playing pizzicato, having the effect of playful mockery. In the B section, the first violin earnestly reasserts the stately grace from the opening however, the cello is clearly becoming restless and decides to take over the lead just before the final reprise. The lighthearted ending again has the first violin doing its best to bring the tune to a refined conclusion, but the rest of the group still has mischief in mind. After a couple moments of seeming confusion, the ensemble regroups at last and plays the final riff with resolute emphasis. If you're looking to add a light moment to a recital program, or looking for a short, medium level contest piece that players and audiences alike will enjoy, this little miniature is an ideal choice! These products are currently being prepared by a new publisher. While many items are ready and will ship on time, some others may see delays of several months. $8.95 - See more - Buy online | | | |

String quartet (String Quartet) - difficult SKU: HL.49018716 Three Sma...(+)
String quartet (String Quartet) - difficult SKU: HL.49018716 Three Small Pieces for String Quartet. Composed by Richard Ayres. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. String Ensemble. Score and parts. Composed 2003. 92 pages. Duration 12'. Schott Music #ED13252. Published by Schott Music (HL.49018716). ISBN 9790220132339. 9.25x12.0x0.3 inches. Richard Ayres' Three Small Pieces for String Quartet each have distinct characters that illustrate the composer's vivid imagination and skill for combining energetic, touching and sometimes wild music. The first piece is a short tribute to the Romanian singer Maria Tanase, a long forgotten performer who was once a star in her country. The second is a rough, fast and folk-like section in 11/16 time and the third, subtitled 'Countess Eva von Spendu (on a horse) gallops through the forest (pausing four times to contemplate natural splendour)', contains (in the words of the composer) 'hunting gallops, a Feldmanesque 19 bar blues, some devilish fiddling, moments of repose and contemplation, and a lyrical finale.'. $91.00 - See more - Buy online | | |
