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 ClarkLakeland, FL. 2005.

The De Haske String Orchestra Series offers attractive pieces especially composed and arranged for string orchestras. Students and teachers are treated to a great variety of musical styles. Each part presents a challenge to the player. The Viola part can be replaced by a 3rd Violin part, and the Double bass part can be replaced by a 2nd Cello part. The Piano part is mainly meant for support, but it occasionally adds new motifs as well.

Classical Highlights is a collection of six arrangements of classical themes dating from 17th to 19th century. The parts have been kept easy and attractive; at the same time they stay close to the original.

De De Haske String Orchestra Series biedt u aantrekkelijke, speciaal voor strijkorkest gecomponeerde en gearrangeerde werken. De stukken zijn geschreven in verschillende stijlen: van klassiek en folk tot moderne, populaire muziek. Iedere partij is zo geschreven dat elke speler in het orkest een uitdaging heeft. De partij voor altviool kan door een derde viool worden vervangen. De partij voor contrabas kan ook door een tweede cello worden gespeeld. De pianopartij dient als ondersteuning, maar voegt soms ook nieuwe motieven toe aan de muziek.

Classical Highlights is een verzameling arrangementen van klassieke thema’s die dateren uit de 17e tot en met de 19e eeuw. De partijen zijn eenvoudig en aantrekkelijk geschreven: tegelijkertijd blijven de arrangementen dicht bij het origineel.

Jede Stimme stellt dabei besondere Herausforderungen an die Spieler. Die Violastimme kann durch eine dritte Violine und der Kontrabass durch ein zweites Cello ersetzt werden. Die Klavierstimme dient zur Unterstu tzung, fu gt aber zuweilen auch neue Motive hinzu.

Classical Highlights enthält Bearbeitungen von sechs klassischen Themen aus der Zeitspanne vom 17. bis zum 19. Jahrhundert. Die Stimmen wurden einfach und ansprechend gestaltet und sinddoch zugleich getreu dem Original. Die Ausgabe enthält ein Rigaudon von Henry Purcell, das berühmte Menuett aus der Feuerwerksmusik von Händel, ein Andante von Haydn (das Thema mit dem berühmten Paukenschlag), das Thema aus Beethovens Violinkonzert, Das große Tor von Kiew aus Bilder einer Ausstellung von Modest Mussorgsky und schließlich noch España von Waldteufel und Chabrier.

Orchestra String Orchestra - Grade 1.5-2

SKU: CF.FAS11

Composed by Larry Clark. FS SWS. Carl Fischer First Plus String Orchestra Series. Classical. Score and Parts. With Standard notation. 8+8+5+5+5+2+8 pages. Carl Fischer Music #FAS11. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.FAS11).

ISBN 9780825845048. UPC: 798408045043. 8.5 X 11 inches. Key: G major.

This outstanding original from Larry Clark can be played any time of year! A vigorous theme moves through all the sections and violas combine with second violins for prominent solo passages. A section in minor adds to the drama as strong rhythmic chords give way to a subdued tremolo in the first violins, reminiscent of Vivaldi's Winter This music reaches a level of intensity your players and audience will love.
Out of the Winter is a musical depiction of the many moods of winter from its harsh storms to its simple beauty. The composition is based on a central main theme that is musically developed throughout the composition presented in and out of major and minor keys.The main theme begins right away without introduction and is set to depict the simple delicate beauty of a light falling snow. The theme is then developed in the minor key using simple contrapuntal techniques that give the composition a fresh sound for pieces at this grade level. The aggressive development of the piece is a musical description of a powerful winter storm. The tension of this section is built to a climax using simple divisi in the strongs and some poly-chordal harmonic techniques that give way to a final return of the main theme to complete the piece.Special care should be given to exaggerating the contrast between the two diverse sections of the piece. The main theme should be light and uplifting. The second section with the theme in minor should have an ominous presence, but still be reminiscent of the original light main theme. As with all of my compositions at this grade level, adjust the tempo to fit the ability level of your students. It is hope that this piece helps to reinforce the concepts of good musicianship which you are trying to instill in your students. Bowings should be used as a guide and should be adjusted to your needs.It has been my pleasure to have had the opportunity to write this piece. I hope that you and your students find it useful for your program.

Christm as and Chanukah faiths collide in this hilarious yet musically satisfying option for your winter program! Four popular Christmas melodies are set in four distinct and characteristic klezmer styles. Opening with Jingle Bells over a slow and dramatic Doina, the music moves into a lively version of We Wish You a Merry Christmas as a Bulgar. A Khosidl is the setting for a slower, restrained version of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (complete with shout chorus!). Then the music takes off with Deck the Halls presented as a Sher. Of course, the Dreidel Song makes a cameo appearance at the end. Tons of fun and wildly entertaining!

One of the most beloved of all Christmas carols is presented in an easy, yet beautiful arrangement by Roy Phillippe. Every sections is given a chance to play the melody in the very playable setting. The optional piano part adds interest and colorful lines to this already very special piece.
I am of the opinion that a piece of music is not judged by how difficult it is to play, but by how good it sounds. While my arrangement of Silent Night is written for beginning string players, I have tried to keep it interesting for all players. It should be played warmly with expression to create a full sound.The piece begins with an introduction based on the three-note Silent Night motive. The main melody is introduced in m. 5 by the first Violins, and is harmonized by the second Violins and Violas. The Cellos reiterate the motive in mm. 6,8,10 and 11. Beginning at m.12 the motive alternates between the Violin II and the Cellos. The melody is played tutti until the key change at m.29, at which point when the Cellos and Basses take the melody with light accompaniment in the Violins and Violas. The final statement of the melody is played by the first violins beginning in m. 37. The Silent Night motive from the beginning alternates between Violin II and the Cellos to the end.
