Dreams is
one of the great Van
Halen songs now
transcribed for string
orchestra. As a string
player, I was enamored
with Eddie Van Halen. He
was a big influence on me
while I was studying at
Juilliard. I purposely
lowered the key to A
major for better
playability. The tempo is
brisk, yet very
attainable. The upbeat
and positive posture of
this composition was a
big attraction to me as a
musician, and it was an
honor for me to show
great respect to the song
and our string world! The
play-along tracks feature
my personal band!
