This energetic composition, written in the style of traditional fiddle-tunes, gradually modulates from B minor to D Major. Players will encounter authentic fiddle techniques such as shuffle-bowing, chops, and double-stops at a brisk tempo. The chop is accomplished by dropping the bow firmly on the D and A strings at the frog, sinking and stopping with slight motion toward the scroll. Players should straighten their fingers on the frog and the bow hair should be tilted toward the bridge when performing this technique. A syncopated bass accompaniment and relentless pace depict a stormy winter season, melting into spring. Each section is given interesting melodic and accompaniment lines, with exciting accented rhythms that require all players to match bow placement, internalize a common tempo, and listen across the ensemble for a precise, focused sound.

Beethoven wrote two Romances for violin and orchestra; his second one, the Op. 40 in G Major, was actually published in 1802, two years before the Op. 50 in F Major, even though the F Major Romance was composed four years earlier. The double stops of the violin solo are faithfully preserved in this arrangement, and careful attention to articulation and emphasis on melodic playing by every section of the band will make this piece an ideal choice to introduce the music of this master composer to young musicians.

This energetic second movement from Bach's famed Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 has been skillfully arranged to be more accessible to the developing string ensemble. Remaining in the key of G major, this piece has been re-scored from the original compound meter of 12/8 to simple 3/4 time, allowing both conductor and players to more easily manage the pulse. All instruments get moving parts with vigorous melodies and countermelodies, while the original solos have been integrated into the sections. An excellent introduction to a classic piece of Baroque repertoire.

“Gor don Wright was the friend of a lifetime. For thirty years Gordon and I shared our two greatest passions: music and Alaska. Gordon was my musical collaborator, my next-door neighbor, my fellow environmentalist and my camping buddy. These miniatures are musical sketches of three moments and places in our friendship. Like Alaska, Gordon was larger than life. He always lived his own way. And he died just as he would have wanted. We found him lying on the deck of his cabin in the Chugach Mountains, curled up against his favorite birch tree, looking across the waters of Turnagain Arm toward the Resurrection Valley and the tiny settlement of Hope.” - John Luther Adams

This music contains no normal stopped tones. All the sounds are produced as natural harmonics or on open strings. There are no harmonics higher than the sixth. So these sounds should be clear and resonant. Even so, balancing the harmonics with the open strings requires careful attention.

The durations of the individual pieces are given at the end of each.

The total duration of the set is about ten minutes.

Composed by Leslie Betteridge. Choral, Christmas, Pentecost. Octavo. Paraclete Press #9116. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9116).

Betteridge's dramatic paraphrase of this famous Christmas carol communicates the message of the text in a miniature comedic drama.

The essence of this work comes into focus throught the characters of the King and his page boy as the King instructs the boy about caring for others in need. The choral parts are not difficult but require careful attention to dramatic pacing. This will make an excellent addition to any music library's Christmas carol concert repertoire.
