Cliffhanger is a programmatic work for string orchestra that harkens back to the days of silent film. One of the lasting images of that time period is the Saturday afternoon matinee, where each episode ended on a cliffhanger until it could be continued next week. This piece tells the familiar story of the damsel in distress who is tied up to the train tracks as a train is approaching. Nicely done!.
Cliffhanger is a programmatic work for string orchestra that harkens back to the days of silent film. One of the lasting images of that time period is the Saturday- afternoon matinee, where each episode ended on a cliffhanger until it could be continued next week. This piece tells the familiar story of the damsel in distress who is tied up to the train tracks as a train is approaching.The opening of the piece sets the scene with danger and desperation. By m. 6, our hero is making his way on horseback to rescue the fair maiden. This main melody is developed and passed around the ensemble until m. 36, at which point despair sets in. The music is rich with romantic harmonies and inner lines. Be sure to bring out these inner lines to add to the passion and drama of the moment. It continues to build until a thunderous arrival at m. 49. From there we return to our hero, who is now getting close to the train tracks to save the fair maiden. The tension becomes the highest at m. 61, when we are still not sure if our hero will make it in time. But alas, at m. 68 he swoops in to save the day and rescue the fair maiden. Of course, they live happily ever after.My hope is that your ensemble will have some fun with this style of music. It was adapted from an arrangement I wrote for the new pipe organ at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. They wanted some scary train music to show children how the organ was used back before movies had sound. Strings provide a heightened sense of drama with this genre of music.

A popular holiday favorite performed and recorded by today's top artists including Luciano Pavarotti, this new arrangement is flowing and makes good use of the shifting tonalities of the beautiful piece. The warm harmonies and exquisite lyricism will make.
Gesu Bambino is the most recognized composition by Italian composer Pietro A. Yon (1886-1943). A respected concert organist, Yon was organist at the Vatican as well as St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City from 1926 through 1943.We begin with a gently flowing rhythmic pattern in the celli which establishes the 12/8 meter. Throughout the piece Yon uses the traditional Christmas carol O, Come All Ye Faithful as a countermelody. This first occurs with a short quote when the second violins enter in measure 3. The first violins entire in the pick-up to measure 5 with Yon's main melody. Careful attention to dynamics should be paid throughout, but especially in cases such as measure 9-10 where they change dramatically from piano to forte. The pick-up to measure 14 has the viole and celli playing the O, Come All Ye Faithful countermelody through measure 21. This occurs again in the first violins with the pick-up to measure 32. Make full use of the crescendo in measure 53. Played with warmth and reverence, this will be an effective showcase for the orchestra.- Roy Phillippe.

Larry Clark does it again with this tuneful new feel good piece. You and your students will walk away humming this tune. There is even a nice contrasting lyrical middle section in the relative minor to break up the piece.
Solstice: one of two times in the year when the sun is at its greatest distancefrom the celestial equator.A solstice happens at the mid-point of summer, about June 21, and the midpoint of winter, about December 22. Each of those times of year is delightful. The carefree days of summer have just begun around June 21, when the mind wanders to long bike rides or walks on the beach. During the winter solstice the mind is filled with all of the delights that the holiday season has to offer. Either way, a solstice is a joyous and fun filled time of year, and this piece is intended to bring to mind some of these wonderful times. The main theme should be performed in a light carefree manner, which is then contrasted by the more lyrical and passionate middle section.As with all of my pieces for younger students, the tempo indicated is merely a guide. Adjust the tempo to fit the needs of your students. It has been my pleasure to have the opportunity to write this piece. I hope you and your students enjoy it and find it useful for your program.
