Summer
Dance is a melodic,
up-tempo piece with
plenty of musical and
technical challenges for
every player. Musicians
should strive to play it
with an energetic yet
legato feel. A
spirited introduction
features an opening
melody in the violins and
active repeated-note
pedal patters in the
violas and low strings.
An AABA form begins at
m.5 and the orchestration
is immediately pared down
to feature violin I and
cello. It then builds
again in density to the B
section, where a quick
dynamic drop allows a
question-and-answer
melody between the two
parts to sing out. In m.
29, the melody is
harmonized and a
countermelody in violin I
introduced. The violins
take the melody soaring
in octaves in m. 33, as
the piece again builds to
the B section and
suddenly quiets. Measure
55 then provides more
question-and-answer
interplay, this time for
viola and cello, while
violin continues with its
newly harmonized melody.
Summer Dance finishes
with a soft recurrence of
the opening figure and a
build toward a powerful
divisi voicing
on beat 3 of m. 63, right
before the final
chord. Summer

When
traveling through the
desert southwest of the
United States, you may be
fortunate enough to come
across a strange looking
brown and white streaked
bird called the
Roadrunner. It has a blue
patch of skin circling
the eyes, a tiny dot of
bright red behind the
eyes, a bushy crest on
the top of its head and a
long tail that bobs up
and down. A member of the
cuckoo family, it is New
Mexico's state bird, and
can run in bursts of
speed from between ten to
twenty miles per hour.
Because it is equipped to
run rather than fly, its
feet are different from
other bird species,
having two toes in front
and two toes in the back.
Its tracks looks like the
letter X. Although
roadrunners can become
airborne, they are
basically ground birds
and do not fly. They eat
insects, scorpions, small
rodents, birds, lizards
and snakes. They do make
noise when in danger;
however, the clicks and
clatters do not resemble
the sound of a honking
horn that we think of
from the Hollywood
cartoon version of
roadrunners. The repeated
notes in the opening
melody of Roadrunner
Rally will remind
you of the sight of a
roadrunner traveling
along at breakneck speed.
A crisp spiccato
accompanied by pizzicato
in the cello and bass
paints the picture of the
bird running through the
desert. At m. 17 you will
hear that raucous honk,
honk that is associated
with the roadrunner
saying Out of my way! The
syncopation can easily be
learned by feel as well
as by counting carefully.
At m. 25 and similar
passages, the first
violins will have fun
learning the jazz licks.
The walking bass like at
m.69 with the jerky sound
of the octaves in the
upper strings will remind
you of the awkward
appearance of this
ungainly bird. And of
course, Roadrunner
Rally ends with a
loudly emphasized honking
noise, the beep that we
associate with the
humorous picture of the
roadrunner. When

When you
have the good fortune to
visit Red Rock country in
the southwestern United
States, you will all at
once feel that majesty
and beauty in the
towering red landscape.
You can trek, bike,
paddle, ride horseback or
drive through the
canyons, past the
strangely shaped rocks
and over the enormous
boulders. Each time you
turn a corner you will be
dazzled by yet another
magnificent vista. The
Red Rock areas in Utah,
Nevada, Arizona and New
Mexico formed millions of
years ago when that part
of North America was
primarily under water.
The water left behind the
shells and skeletons of
sea creatures that
gradually turned into
limestone and similar
rocks. Beginning 225
million years ago, the
earth's crust began to
move and the seabed
slowly rose. Streams
entering the shallow
water deposited mud and
sand that turned into
shale and marine
sandstone. As the land
continued to rise and dry
out, some of the rocks
oxidized (combined with
oxygen) and turned red in
color. Subsequently the
area was covered with
sands that eventually
compressed into what is
called Aztec sandstone.
Sometimes, when iron was
concentrated in the rock,
the sandstone turned a
bright red color.
Following the
introduction, the music
in Red Rock Rag takes on
a typical ragtime melody
and rhythm. It then
transitions by changing
key, time signature and
the structure into a
swing waltz. At m. 60, it
moves into a combined
time signature of one
measure of 3/4 time and
two measures of 2/4 time
with an occasional lick
in the bass line.
Finally, it moves back
into the swing-waltz
style and finishes with
the original ragtime
melody. Red Rock Rag
is challenging
stylistically and
rhythmically. It would be
appropriate to study both
the ragtime and swing
styles while working on
it. When you have the

continued to rise and dry
out, some of the rocks
oxidized (combined with
oxygen) and turned red in
color. Subsequently the
area was covered with
sands that eventually
compressed into what is
called Aztec sandstone.
Sometimes, when iron was
concentrated in the rock,
the sandstone turned a
bright red
color.Following the
introduction, the music
in Red Rock Rag takes on
a typical ragtime melody
and rhythm. It then
transitions by changing
key, time signature and
the structure into a
swing waltz. At m. 60, it
moves into a combined
time signature of one
measure of 3/4 time and
two measures of 2/4 time
with an occasional lick
in the bass line.
Finally, it moves back
into the swing-waltz
style and finishes with
the original ragtime
melody. Red Rock
Rag is challenging
stylistically and
rhythmically. It would be
appropriate to study both
the ragtime and swing
styles while working on
it.

This is a
sweeping new original
composition in a subto
Scottish style from
popular composer Alan Lee
Silva. Just another one
of the pieces that always
seem to flow effortlessly
from his talented pen.
This is an excellent
piece for any contest or
festival. This
Scottish-flavored,
uptempo piece in has a
lilting, jubilant-feel
throughout. Highland
Celebration is built
around two rhythmic
subdivisions: two groups
of three eighth notes per
measure and three groups
of two eighth notes per
measure. Have the
ensemble distinguish
between the two
subdivisions by tapping
each one separately. Make
an exercise of the rhythm
in mm. 1–2 in
Violin 1 to facilitate
playing the different
rhythms precisely: (1 2 3
- 4 5 6) and (1 2 - 3 4 -
5 6). Rehearsing four- to
eightmeasure sections
under tempo will aid in
tightening these rhythms
and solidifying pitch.The
sections to concentrate
on are: mm. 17–24
and mm. 33–40 to
make sure that Violins I
and II and Cello are
playing together; mm.
33–40, to focus on
the Violin 1 and Violin 2
unisons and couplings;
and mm. 57–62,
where the quarter-note
subdivisions are
emphasized. The piece is
book-ended with the
introduction material
which always begins
quietly and builds. The
ensemble at m. 79 starts
with tutti scalar figures
and increases in
intensity to the final
accented measures at m.
83. Written in AABA form
with a double bridge at
m. 45, the overall
feeling is dance-like and
festive.

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.

Characte
r was composed to
introduce young string
players to contemporary
harmonic techniques while
still being within the
technical limitations of
the developing student.
Quartal and quintal
harmonies open the
composition with a
fanfare gesture that ties
the piece together. This
is followed by an
ostinato in the first
violins that contains a
tricky figuration between
G and A that will work
the pinky finger on the
D-string. Players who are
not capable of
maneuvering their pinky
at this brisk tempo
should play the lower
part. The main theme is
given to the inner voice
for a change! After the
main theme there is a
development section that
combines fragments of the
fanfare material with
fragments of the main
theme. A grand pause and
then a stronger statement
of the main theme then
follow this with the
first violins up an
octave. The piece is then
completed with a short
coda containing fragments
of the ostinato and
fanfare material. It
feels natural for the
tempo to speed up
slightly at this point in
the piece. As with all of
my pieces at this level,
the tempo is merely a
suggestion and should be
adjusted slower or faster
to fit the needs of your
students and the
performance situation. 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.

Moonlight
Shadows is a passionate
and colorful piece for
strings that explores the
expressive power of the
string orchestra. Sean
O'Loughlin uses a lush
harmonic palette and
variety of texture
(including a short
pizzicato section), to
create an important and
soulful addition to the
repertoire for younger
string ensembles.
Duration:
2'30. Moonlight
Shadows is a work for
string orchestra that
reflects my great love
for the music of Samuel
Barber. His compositions
from the 1930s and 1940s
were characterized by
plush harmonies, flowing
melodies and engaging
suspensions. These
elements are what I
focused on in the
composition
of Moonlight
Shadows.The material
represents my mood and
feelings when I look at a
big, bright moon. The
shadows it casts create
an eerie feeling, while
at the same time
providing a deep, rich
tapestry for the earth at
night.The harmony
features many major
seventh-chords with
half-step suspensions.
These suspensions
function as common tones
to the next chord and
create the tension of the
piece. They also move, in
order to provide
resolution to the piece
which allows the listener
to rest. With this in
mind, these suspensions
should be brought out
during
performance.Moonlight
Shadows is an emotional
piece that allows the
young musician the
opportunity to play with
much expression.

Summer Dance
is a melodic, up-tempo
piece with plenty of
musical and technical
challenges for every
player. Musicians should
strive to play it with an
energetic yet legato
feel.A spirited
introduction features an
opening melody in the
violins and active
repeated-note pedal
patterns in the violas
and low strings. An AABA
form begins at m. 5 and
the orchestration is
immediately pared down to
feature violin I and
cello. It then builds
again in density to the
13 section, where a quick
dynamic drop allows a
question-and-answer
melody between the two
parts to sing out.In m.
29, the melody is
harmonized and a
countermelody in violin I
introduced. The violins
take the melody soaring
in octaves in m. 33, as
the piece again builds to
the B section and
suddenly quiets. Measure
55 then provides more
question-and-answer
interplay, this time for
viola and cello, while
violin continues with its
newly harmonized melody.
Summer Dance finishes
with a soft recurrence of
the opening figure and a
build toward a powerful
divisi voicing on beat 3
of m. 63, right before
the final chord.

An
absolute classic for
strings, this version is
in C major to avoid
forward extensions for
viola and violoncello.
There is nothing out of
first position except for
a simple shift for
violoncello and bass in a
brief passage. A solo
string quartet section
gives the work a truly
Baroque feel.
