From the
Rocky Mountains to the
Pacific Ocean, Path to
the Pacific reflects the
open, airy and
picturesque qualities of
the American West. These
textures are painted
through the use of light
syncopation, key
modulations and triplets
that will certainly
ch. From the opening
driving cello melody to
the final ensemble
flourish, Path to the
Pacific is an exciting
and rewarding piece for
young players to play.The
accents in the cello
during the lively
introduction at m. 1 are
integral to the feel of
the melodic line and
provide an engaging
technical challenge. The
AAB form begins as the
piece decrescendos to the
quiet ‘A’
section at m. 9,
featuring violin 1 with a
singing, lyrical
melody.The robust, joyous
‘B’ section
is played with intensity,
but still legato. The
return to the
‘A’ material
at m. 37 features the
Cello. The 2nd statement
of the ‘B’
material at m. 45 is
highlighted by a
refreshing tonal shift to
the key of E then back to
the key of
‘G’ before
the crescendo to the
fermata in m. 58.The
active cello theme from
the introduction returns
in the A Tempo section at
m. 59 at a piano dynamic.
This begins the build to
the maestoso section at
m. 71. Measures 63-70 are
the most aggressive bars
of the composition.
Strive for rhythmic
precision when
approaching the quintal
harmony in m. 63-64, the
accented figures in m.
65-67, and the triplet
figures in m. 68-69. A
rich, resonant tone from
the full ensemble will
make the maestoso section
in m. 71 move powerfully
to the final bar.

Little Known Gem - Grade
V. Prelude, In Minuet
Style, Sarabande,
Caprice, Pastoral, Air,
Frolic. Containing seven
fun to play sections,
each movement in An
English Suite has
approachable technical
demands while not being
too lengthy. The Prelude
is neo-Baroque, where
Baroque rhythms are
combined with Victorian
harmonies. Sounding more
difficult than it
actually is to play, this
movement is busy with
violin passages that
reach high G's. In Minuet
Style has lovely lines
for viola and charmingly
couples an older form
with more advanced
harmonic language. The
Saraband offers drama and
resembles the style and
writing of Elgar. There
are high G's for both
cello and bass, but the
passages are logical and
fall under the hand
easily. Most technically
difficult, the Caprice is
a diversion requiring
precision, speed, and
technique to maneuver
through changing
harmonies and tonalities.
The retro Pastoral was
written in a manner
similar to the Gavotte
from Grieg's Holberg
Suite, while the Air
contains effective
alternation of solo notes
with tutti textures. The
final Frolic movement is
a fun fiddle tune that is
great for featuring the
first and second violin
sections. It has also
served as a theme song
for one of New York's
classical music stations.
Keep arco accompaniments
at the frog and off the
string during repetitive
rhythmic passages and in
pizzicato sections, as
they can easily be
rushed.

Classical
ReminiscencesDuring his
time as conductor of the
Detmold court orchestra,
the young Brahms was
inspired by the local
wind ensemble to compose
two serenades. Serenade
No. 2, scored for five
pairs of winds, violas,
cellos, and string basses
(leaving out the violins)
is strongly reminiscent
in sound of Mozart's wind
serenades. The expressive
Adagio is the heart of
the five-movement work.
Quite untypical of
Brahms, he acquired a
liking for the work from
the outset, still
undertaking a revision
scarcely 15 years after
the premiere of 1860;
this has now been made
available in a new
practical edition based
on the Johannes Brahms
Complete Edition
(JBG).

Of
all Shaker hymns, this is
undoubtedly the best
known because it served
as the basis for
Copland's ballet,
Appalachian Spring.
Arranged here for
strings, it combines
simple pentatonic
melodies with memorable
rhythms. Harmonics,
tremolo and strummed
chords in the keys of G
and D add flair, and the
score contains an
excellent synopsis of
Shaker life for students
and audiences. Duration
2:15.
