The musical
effect of Prarie
Lullaby should be
graceful and serene,
evocative of a peaceful
night on the open plains.
To that end, players will
need to strive for an
unlabored rhythmic flow,
smooth bowing and a
clear, steady tone as
close to p as
possible. Beginning at
m.39, the violin and
viola parts are marked
pizzicato. If
young players are unable
to return quickly to
argo at m.53,
they may make the bow
preparation easier by
taking a full measure
rest at m.52. This option
is marked in the parts
and score. The divisi
notes at m. 69 are
provided for ensembles
which lack violas.
Ensembles with violas may
have them play the lower
notes while the second
violins play the upper
notes. Percussion, which
is completely optional,
should be very subdued.
Choose a bell mallet
which allows the tones to
be heard just above the
strings. the woodblock
part is intended to
imitate the clip-clop
sound of a horse's
hooves. Two different
sizes of woodblocks or
temple blocks are needed.
Finding two suitable
sounds on one woodblock
is difficult. Again, the
right mallets are very
important. The suspended
cymbal should be played
with brushes if the
string ensemble is small.
If the suspended cymbal
with brushes cannot be
heard above a large
number of strings, then
sticks should be used
instead. The percussion
part can be performed by
one player, provided the
instruments and mallets
are set up properly and
the player has the skill
to make the transitions
smoothly. Note the
optional rest at mm.

includes note and rest
values limited to quarter
notes/rests, half notes,
and whole rests. It can
be successfully performed
at a range of tempos,
depending on the
experience level of the
orchestra. Rather than
writing for 1st and 2nd
violins, this piece
features a single violin
part.
Jeremy

this work for his

that it should be a
programmatic work
accompanied by a short
story and artwork. Once
students became
comfortable with the
music and story, Mr.
Woolstenhulme assigned an
art project to them! Some
samples of their work are
printed in this

music, creative writing,

When
traveling through the
desert southwest of the
United States, you may be
fortunate enough to come
across a strange looking
brown and white streaked
bird called the
Roadrunner. It has a blue
patch of skin circling
the eyes, a tiny dot of
bright red behind the
eyes, a bushy crest on
the top of its head and a
long tail that bobs up
and down. A member of the
cuckoo family, it is New
Mexico's state bird, and
can run in bursts of
speed from between ten to
twenty miles per hour.
Because it is equipped to
run rather than fly, its
feet are different from
other bird species,
having two toes in front
and two toes in the back.
Its tracks looks like the
letter X. Although
roadrunners can become
airborne, they are
basically ground birds
and do not fly. They eat
insects, scorpions, small
rodents, birds, lizards
and snakes. They do make
noise when in danger;
however, the clicks and
clatters do not resemble
the sound of a honking
horn that we think of
from the Hollywood
cartoon version of
roadrunners. The repeated
notes in the opening
melody of Roadrunner
Rally will remind
you of the sight of a
roadrunner traveling
along at breakneck speed.
A crisp spiccato
accompanied by pizzicato
in the cello and bass
paints the picture of the
bird running through the
desert. At m. 17 you will
hear that raucous honk,
honk that is associated
with the roadrunner
saying Out of my way! The
syncopation can easily be
learned by feel as well
as by counting carefully.
At m. 25 and similar
passages, the first
violins will have fun
learning the jazz licks.
The walking bass like at
m.69 with the jerky sound
of the octaves in the
upper strings will remind
you of the awkward
appearance of this
ungainly bird. And of
course, Roadrunner
Rally ends with a
loudly emphasized honking
noise, the beep that we
associate with the
humorous picture of the
roadrunner. When

IApart from
some of his Sonatinas,
Opus 36, Clementi's life
and music are hardly
known to the piano
teachers and students of
today. For example, in
addition to the above
mentioned Sonatinas,
Clementi wrote sixty
sonatas for the piano,
many of them unjustly
neglected, although his
friend Beethoven regarded
some of them very highly.
Clementi also wrote
symphonies (some of which
he arranged as piano
sonatas), a substantial
number of waltzes and
other dances for the
piano as well as sonatas
and sonatinas for piano
four-hands.In addition to
composing, Clementi was a
much sought after piano
teacher, and included
among his students John
Field (Father of the
'Nocturne'), and
Meyerbeer.In his later
years, Clementi became a
very successful music
publisher, publishing
among other works the
first English edition of
Beethoven's Violin
Concerto, in the great
composer's own
arrangement for the
piano, as well as some of
his string quartets.
Clementi was also one of
the first English piano
manufacturers to make
pianos with a metal frame
and string them with
wire.The Sonatina in C,
Opus 36, No. 1 was one of
six such works Clementi
wrote in 1797. He must
have been partial to
these little pieces (for
which he also provided
the fingerings), since
they were reissued
(without the fingering)
by the composer shortly
after 1801. About 1820,
he issued ''the sixth
edition, with
considerable improvements
by the author;· with
fingerings added and
several minor changes,
among which were that
many of them were written
an octave higher.IIIt has
often been said,
generally by those
unhampered by the facts,
that composers of the
past (and, dare we add,
the present?), usually
handled their financial
affairs with their public
and publishers with a
poor sense of business
acumen or common sense.
As a result they
frequently found
themselves in financial
straits.Contrary to
popular opinion, this was
the exception rather than
the rule. With the
exception of Mozart and
perhaps a few other
composers, the majority
of composers then, as
now, were quite
successful in their
dealings with the public
and their publishers, as
the following examples
will show.It was not
unusual for 18th- and
19th-century composers to
arrange some of their
more popular compositions
for different
combinations of
instruments in order to
increase their
availability to a larger
music-playing public.
Telemann, in the
introduction to his
seventy-two cantatas for
solo voice and one melody
instrument (flute, oboe
or violin, with the usual
continua) Der Harmonische
Gottesdienst, tor
example, suggests that if
a singer is not available
to perform a cantata the
voice part could be
played by another
instrument. And in the
introduction to his Six
Concertos and Six Suites
for flute, violin and
continua, he named four
different instrumental
combinations that could
perform these pieces, and
actually wrote out the
notes for the different
possibilities. Bach
arranged his violin
concertos for keyboard,
and Beethoven not only
arranged his Piano Sonata
in E Major, Opus 14, No.
1 for string quartet, he
also transposed it to the
key of F. Brahm's
well-known Quintet in F
Minor for piano and
strings was his own
arrangement of his
earlier sonata for two
pianos, also in F
Minor.IIIWe come now to
Clementi. It is well
known that some of his
sixty piano sonatas were
his own arrangements of
some of his lost
symphonies, and that some
of his rondos for piano
four-hands were
originally the last
movements of his solo
sonatas or piano trios.In
order to make the first
movement of his
delightful Sonatina in C,
Opus 36, No. 1 accessible
to young string players,
I have followed the
example established by
the composer himself by
arranging and transposing
one of his piano
compositions from one
medium (the piano) to
another. (string
instruments). In order to
simplify the work for
young string players, in
the process of adapting
it to the new medium it
was necessary to
transpose it from the
original key of C to G,
thereby doing away with
some of the difficulties
they would have
encountered in the
original key. The first
violin and cello parts
are similar to the right-
and left-hand parts of
the original piano
version. The few changes
I have made in these
parts have been for the
convenience of the string
players, but in no way do
they change the nature of
the music.Since the
original implied a
harmonic framework in
many places, I have added
a second violin and viola
part in such a way that
they not only have
interesting music to
play, but also fill in
some of the implied
harmony without in any
way detracting from the
composition's musical
value. Occasionally, it
has been necessary to
raise or lower a few
passages an octave or to
modify others slightly to
make them more accessible
for young players.It is
hoped that the musical
value of the composition
has not been too
compromised, and that
students and teachers
will come to enjoy this
little piece in its new
setting as much as
pianists have in the
original one. This
arrangement may also be
performed by a solo
string quartet. When
performed by a string
orchestra, the double
bass part may be
omitted.- Douglas

This is a
sweeping new original
composition in a subto
Scottish style from
popular composer Alan Lee
Silva. Just another one
of the pieces that always
seem to flow effortlessly
from his talented pen.
This is an excellent
piece for any contest or
festival. This
Scottish-flavored,
uptempo piece in has a
lilting, jubilant-feel
throughout. Highland
Celebration is built
around two rhythmic
subdivisions: two groups
of three eighth notes per
measure and three groups
of two eighth notes per
measure. Have the
ensemble distinguish
between the two
subdivisions by tapping
each one separately. Make
an exercise of the rhythm
in mm. 1–2 in
Violin 1 to facilitate
playing the different
rhythms precisely: (1 2 3
- 4 5 6) and (1 2 - 3 4 -
5 6). Rehearsing four- to
eightmeasure sections
under tempo will aid in
tightening these rhythms
and solidifying pitch.The
sections to concentrate
on are: mm. 17–24
and mm. 33–40 to
make sure that Violins I
and II and Cello are
playing together; mm.
33–40, to focus on
the Violin 1 and Violin 2
unisons and couplings;
and mm. 57–62,
where the quarter-note
subdivisions are
emphasized. The piece is
book-ended with the
introduction material
which always begins
quietly and builds. The
ensemble at m. 79 starts
with tutti scalar figures
and increases in
intensity to the final
accented measures at m.
83. Written in AABA form
with a double bridge at
m. 45, the overall
feeling is dance-like and
festive.

The musical
effect of Prarie
Lullaby should be
graceful and serene,
evocative of a peaceful
night on the open plains.
To that end, players will
need to strive for an
unlabored rhythmic flow,
smooth bowing and a
clear, steady tone as
close to p as
possible.Beginning at
m.39, the violin and
viola parts are
marked pizzicato. If
young players are unable
to return quickly
to argo at m.53, they
may make the bow
preparation easier by
taking a full measure
rest at m.52. This option
is marked in the parts
and
score.The divisi no
tes at m. 69 are provided
for ensembles which lack
violas. Ensembles with
violas may have them play
the lower notes while the
second violins play the
upper notes.Percussion,
which is completely
optional, should be very
subdued. Choose a bell
mallet which allows the
tones to be heard just
above the strings. the
woodblock part is
intended to imitate the
clip-clop sound of a
horse's hooves. Two
different sizes of
woodblocks or temple
blocks are needed.
Finding two suitable
sounds on one woodblock
is difficult. Again, the
right mallets are very
important. The suspended
cymbal should be played
with brushes if the
string ensemble is small.
If the suspended cymbal
with brushes cannot be
heard above a large
number of strings, then
sticks should be used
instead.The percussion
part can be performed by
one player, provided the
instruments and mallets
are set up properly and
the player has the skill
to make the transitions
smoothly. Note the
optional rest at mm.
53-54.Performance time
with the repeat is two
and a half minutes.

Two
Daughters is a flowing
and impassioned
composition dedicated to
the composer's daughters
that gives the young
string orchestra ample
chances to display its
lyrical abilities.
Several solo passages
vary the texture, which
displays Alan Lee Silva's
usual flair for lush
contemporary harmonic
writing. From the
poignant, heartwarming
violin melody at m. 5, to
the soaring ensemble
climax at m. 61, Two
Daughters is a flowing,
lyrical composition with
a wide dynamic range.
Written in AABA form with
a bridge, the delicate
introduction sets up a
legato violin solo at m.
5. The piece builds to
the singing B-section (m.
21) and returns again to
the gentle A-melody (m.
29). The cello is
featured in m. 37 under a
soft, high string
sustain. Two modulations
(mm. 37 and 52) move
seamlessly and build
excitement to the bridge,
highlighted by
alternating melodic
phrases. The slower
ending section (m.69) is
played with intensity,
featuring more
sixteenth-note passages.
The final two measures
return to the sweet,
gentle feeling of the
introduction.

A
programatic work by
composer Doris Gazda that
sets out to depict the
historic moon landing by
the Apollo 11 astronauts
and the famous first step
by Neil Armstrong. A
sound portrait of this
remarkable event in
America history. In
July, 1959 the world
watched and listened as
the astronauts of Apollo
11 traveled from the
Earth to the moon. The
mission, launched by
NASA, successfully
carried men to the
surface of the moon and
returned them safely to
earth. The spaceship was
made up of a command
module, Columbia, and a
lunar module, Eagle.
Astronauts Neil
Armstrong, flight
commander, and Buzz
Aldrin, pilot of the
lunar module, actually
walked on the moon. The
third astronaut, Michael
Collins, piloted
Columbia, the command
module that orbited the
moon while Armstrong and
Aldrin were on the lunar
surface.The 238,000-mile
trip to the moon took
four days. Apollo 11 fell
into orbit 60 miles above
the moon's surface. The
Eagle separated from
Columbia, orbited the
moon nine miles above the
surface and then made a
powered descent, touching
down on the moon in the
Seat of Tranquility. Six
hours after landing,
Armstrong stepped onto
the moon's surface
uttering these memorable
words that brought to
reality the possibilities
of space travel and
exploration, That's one
small step for man, one
giant leap for
mankind.Armstrong and
Aldrin spent two hours
walking on the lunar
surface. They set up some
scientific equipment,
raised an American flag
and left a plaque signed
by the Apollo 11 crew and
President Richard Nixon,
reading:Here men from
planet earth first set
foot upon the moon. July
1969 A.D. We came in
peace for all
mankind.Twenty-one hours
after landing, the Eagle
with Armstrong and Aldrin
onboard, left the moon to
reunite with Columbia.
After docking
successfully, all three
men got into Columbia.
They jettisoned the Eagle
and Columbia left lunar
orbit to make the return
trip. Two days later
Columbia re-entered the
Earth's atmosphere and
splashed down in the
Pacific Ocean.

The fast
paced rondo has a Dorian
flavored melody with
hints of quartel (based
on an interval of a
fourth) harmony to give
it a contemporary sound
The players are presented
with solo opportunities
as well as harmonic turns
and twists that will keep
them. Rondo in the
Nick of Time was
originally the third
movement for a woodwind
quintet piece that I
wrote in 1990. I have
always been fond of this
little piece and felt
that it would adapt well
to larger ensembles. I
have also scored this
piece for band as part of
a suite called Upon a
New Horizon.The main
theme is based on the
Dorian Mode. The use of
quartal harmony makes up
most of the harmonic
material. Each statement
of the theme is followed
by an episode that
increases in length each
time. There is a sudden
change of style and tempo
in the middle of the
piece, where fragments of
the theme are developed.
The title is a
play-on-words, since the
work contains hemiola
effects that alter the
feel of the time.As with
all of my pieces for
strings, the bowings are
given only as a
reference. Feel free to
alter them to fit the
needs of your students. I
have indicated a rather
fast tempo for the piece.
I really like the piece
to fly, but it will work
and sound fine at a
slower tempo as well.
Just endeavor to keep
their energy moving
forward.It has been my
pleasure to have the
opportunity to write this
piece. I hope that you
and your students enjoy
it and find it useful in
your program.-Larry
