Sandra Dackow Little Known Gem - Grade IV+. Ed. by Hoffmann. This delightful set of works in the keys of G, A, and B-flat major takes full advantage of multiple stops, chords, and fiddle writing that lays easily under the hand and is fun to play. The fast movements are vigorous and the contrasting slow movements are not particularly fussy or florid, though they include some ornamentation. In the Allegro sections, musicians should approach the playing as they would a work by Haydn or Mozart: eighth and quarter notes off the string and at the frog, and sixteenth notes on the string. Stamitz's players would have followed the general rule of the down bow, where the strong beat would begin with a down bow. In Concerto No. 1 in G, the Violin I parts reach to sixth position, requiring high G's. Unusual writing for its time, these passages are both logical and easy for players to find and hear. Cello and bass parts reach high F's on occasion and require third, fourth and fifth positions. The second violin and viola parts do not require extended ranges, making this work practical for an upper intermediate orchestra. The slow movements transition between different keys and requires the low strings to use extension notes such as G-sharp and A-sharp.

Kathryn Griesinger's Ballad of Burning Sky is a rollicking ballad which tells a tale from the untamed frontier of the historic Wild West. In this easy first-position piece, students can create their own legend for this original tune patterned after traditional cowboy songs of America's past. An optional piano accompaniment is included.
This original ballad features a catchy tune patterned after traditional cowboy songs. Lilting offbeat pizzicato and a steady bass line give a lighthearted feel to this upbeat melody. All sections get to practice string crossings and a few easy accidentals in first position. The changing accompaniment lines will help reinforce counting and playing independently. Students will enjoy making up their own legendary tale, perhaps of a traveling stranger in a frontier town!
