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

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.

The musical
effect of Prarie
Lullaby should be
graceful and serene,
evocative of a peaceful
night on the open plains.
To that end, players will
need to strive for an
unlabored rhythmic flow,
smooth bowing and a
clear, steady tone as
close to p as
possible. Beginning at
m.39, the violin and
viola parts are marked
pizzicato. If
young players are unable
to return quickly to
argo at m.53,
they may make the bow
preparation easier by
taking a full measure
rest at m.52. This option
is marked in the parts
and score. The divisi
notes at m. 69 are
provided for ensembles
which lack violas.
Ensembles with violas may
have them play the lower
notes while the second
violins play the upper
notes. Percussion, which
is completely optional,
should be very subdued.
Choose a bell mallet
which allows the tones to
be heard just above the
strings. the woodblock
part is intended to
imitate the clip-clop
sound of a horse's
hooves. Two different
sizes of woodblocks or
temple blocks are needed.
Finding two suitable
sounds on one woodblock
is difficult. Again, the
right mallets are very
important. The suspended
cymbal should be played
with brushes if the
string ensemble is small.
If the suspended cymbal
with brushes cannot be
heard above a large
number of strings, then
sticks should be used
instead. The percussion
part can be performed by
one player, provided the
instruments and mallets
are set up properly and
the player has the skill
to make the transitions
smoothly. Note the
optional rest at mm.

notes at m. 69 are
provided for ensembles
which lack violas.
Ensembles with violas may
have them play the lower
notes while the second
violins play the upper
notes. Percussion, which
is completely optional,
should be very subdued.
Choose a bell mallet
which allows the tones to
be heard just above the
strings. the woodblock
part is intended to
imitate the clip-clop
sound of a horse's
hooves. Two different
sizes of woodblocks or
temple blocks are needed.
Finding two suitable
sounds on one woodblock
is difficult. Again, the
right mallets are very
important. The suspended
cymbal should be played
with brushes if the
string ensemble is small.
If the suspended cymbal
with brushes cannot be
heard above a large
number of strings, then
sticks should be used
instead. The percussion
part can be performed by
one player, provided the
instruments and mallets
are set up properly and
the player has the skill
to make the transitions
smoothly. Note the
optional rest at mm.
53-54. Performance time
with the repeat is two
and a half
minutes. The musical
effect of Prarie
Lullaby should be
graceful and serene,
evocative of a peaceful
night on the open plains.
To that end, players will
need to strive for an
unlabored rhythmic flow,
smooth bowing and a
clear, steady tone as
close to p as
possible.Beginning at
m.39, the violin and
viola parts are
marked pizzicato. If
young players are unable
to return quickly
to argo at m.53, they
may make the bow
preparation easier by
taking a full measure
rest at m.52. This option
is marked in the parts
and
score.The divisi no
tes at m. 69 are provided
for ensembles which lack
violas. Ensembles with
violas may have them play
the lower notes while the
second violins play the
upper notes.Percussion,
