Ever
ask your intermediate
students to sing their
parts? This one's for
you! This American
fiddling song is arranged
by Renata Bratt so that
every section gets a
chance to sing the song
as well as play the tune
with idiomatic fiddle
breaks based on the tune.
Sounds great without the
singing as well! The fast
driving rhythmic power of
offbeat accents in cut
time is emphasized in
this accessible D Major
arrangement. This tune
calls for fast left hand
fingers and some quick
bow-crossings, though it
stays in the first
position. Great fun!

This ode
to the Wild West begins
with a mysterious
introduction using the
folk song All the Pretty
Little Horses in an eerie
setting that will send
shivers up the spines of
performers and audience
members alike. Brief
solos for violin, viola,
and cello are heard. The
pace then picks up as we
hear the driving and
energetic theme of the
Ghost Stallion riding
through the moonlit
countryside. The repeated
galloping rhythm
(eighth/two sixteenths)
appears in stretches and
is designed to improve
your students' abilities
to perform this
all-important bowing
pattern. This picturesque
and educationally sound
selection by Richard
Meyer is sure to capture

everyone in both

One of

from time of the French
Renaissance, jouissance
refers to a dance in
which the feet stay on
the floor, as opposed to
one with leaps or lifts.
This setting by Deborah
Baker Monday has a
driving pulse with
attractive modal
harmonies in the friendly
key of E natural minor.
All instruments have
melodic lines. This
arrangement also provides
a great opportunity for
teaching double up-bows
and two-note slurs
followed by two separate
notes. The added
percussion part will make
this piece a great
selection for festival or
your next concert!
