This is a
striking and original
piece that builds
interest and momentum
using a four note cello
and bass ostinato. Arco
and pizzicato contrasts
of texture and off-beat
accents and rhythms
sustain interest in this
unusual selection, which
puts minimal musical
resources to maximum
use. A Road Less
Traveled is a musical
journey based on four
notes. The cellos and
basses provide these
notes in mm. 2 and 3. The
piece explores some new
compositional techniques
for me, and in some
sections can be
considered minimalist.
However, I constructed
the piece in a very
accessible manner. The
individual rhythms create
new composite rhythms
when played together. It
has a unique clockwork
quality to it. The music
morphs from arco to
pizzicato at m. 49. The
odd accents bring out
some of the quirky
quality to the music. A
return to arco playing at
m. 94 provides a
recapitulation of the
opening section. Upon
return, some of the
punchy music now becomes
sustained for a dramatic
climax. This piece was a
real joy to work on, and
illustrates “a road
less traveled†in
my compositional
career.

A
programatic work by
composer Doris Gazda that
sets out to depict the
historic moon landing by
the Apollo 11 astronauts
and the famous first step
by Neil Armstrong. A
sound portrait of this
remarkable event in
America history. In
July, 1959 the world
watched and listened as
the astronauts of Apollo
11 traveled from the
Earth to the moon. The
mission, launched by
NASA, successfully
carried men to the
surface of the moon and
returned them safely to
earth. The spaceship was
made up of a command
module, Columbia, and a
lunar module, Eagle.
Astronauts Neil
Armstrong, flight
commander, and Buzz
Aldrin, pilot of the
lunar module, actually
walked on the moon. The
third astronaut, Michael
Collins, piloted
Columbia, the command
module that orbited the
moon while Armstrong and
Aldrin were on the lunar
surface.The 238,000-mile
trip to the moon took
four days. Apollo 11 fell
into orbit 60 miles above
the moon's surface. The
Eagle separated from
Columbia, orbited the
moon nine miles above the
surface and then made a
powered descent, touching
down on the moon in the
Seat of Tranquility. Six
hours after landing,
Armstrong stepped onto
the moon's surface
uttering these memorable
words that brought to
reality the possibilities
of space travel and
exploration, That's one
small step for man, one
giant leap for
mankind.Armstrong and
Aldrin spent two hours
walking on the lunar
surface. They set up some
scientific equipment,
raised an American flag
and left a plaque signed
by the Apollo 11 crew and
President Richard Nixon,
reading:Here men from
planet earth first set
foot upon the moon. July
1969 A.D. We came in
peace for all
mankind.Twenty-one hours
after landing, the Eagle
with Armstrong and Aldrin
onboard, left the moon to
reunite with Columbia.
After docking
successfully, all three
men got into Columbia.
They jettisoned the Eagle
and Columbia left lunar
orbit to make the return
trip. Two days later
Columbia re-entered the
Earth's atmosphere and
splashed down in the
Pacific Ocean.

One of the

for beginning strings.
Optional part for bells,

opportunity to involve
other students in
performing with the
string orchestra. The
Volga River is the
longest river in Europe
(about 2,300 miles long)
and the principal
waterway of Russia. The
Volga has played an
important part in the
life of the Russian
people, and in Russian
folklore is called Mother
Volga. For centuries it
has served as the chief
thoroughfare of Russia
and as the lifeline of
Russian colonization to
the east. It carries
one-half of the total
river freight of Russia
and irrigates the vast
steppes of the lower
Volga region. Grain,
building materials, salt,
fish and caviar (from the
Volga delta and the
Caspian Sea) are shipped
upstream; lumber is the
main commodity shipped
downstream.The folk
song The Volga Boatman
is supposed to represent
the rhythmic rowing of
the hard-working oarsmen
who took their boats and
rafts up and down this
long waterway. The boats
carried goods for trade,
travelers and the armies
and invaders who fought
throughout the Russian
lands.Close your eyes
while you listen to the
song. Imagine that you
have a boat carrying
grain and fish for a long
distance. Then pretend
you are rowing your boat
in rhythm to the
melody.

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

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.
