Get ready to stamp your feet for fearless fun in this great piece for younger players. Everyone gets the line and each section can play fearlessly and with a sense of fun. Towards the end, don't be surprised if there is a quote from Tchaikovsky and a whiff of Brandenburg---it's all in the spirit of a good time! 'The Sailor's Hornpipe,' arranged by Sandra Dackow, is familiar to many listeners through its opening words, 'With a yo heave ho---and a slap upon the knee,' and it is easy to imagine foot stomps and slaps upon the knees of sailors accompanying their singing. This classic hornpipe will help your students with dexterity, playing in the lower half of the bow, and bow lifts! (2:25) / Orchestre A Cordes

for String Orchestra Score. Par SIBELIUS JEAN / LATHAM LYNNE (Arr.). This arrangement keeps the dramatic character of the original, but in changing the key to D minor, avoids some of the messy chromaticism. The introduction features the low strings and there are moments for just the 1st 2 desks to shine. This rousing work will most certainly enhance the tone production of your group!/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

for Strings Score and Parts. Par BURLEIGH HARRY T. / MORALES DION (Arr.). Dion Morales arranged Through Moanin\' Pines by Harry T. Burleigh allowing younger musicians to celebrate and perform music by a composer of color. A masterful edition of this spiritual, soulful tune provides opportunities for expression, discussion of the heritage of the music and its composer, and a musical experience not only described by the music, but also inspired by the text above. Through 3-part writing, legato bowing, pizzicato, and a broad palette of dynamics, your students will enjoy performing this beautiful Level 2 song and hearing the text through the vibration of their strings. / Date parution : 2022-07-30/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

In 3/4, this moving piece provides a great opportunity for the use of slow bow strokes and cross-curricular study. The victory over the British forces at Yorktown, Virginia by the American Continental Army in 1781 signaled the end of the Revolutionary War. This original work by Todd Parrish remembers the heroic efforts of General Washington and the brave soldiers he commanded to forge a new nation founded on freedom. (2:30) / Orchestre A Cordes

Par WILLIAMS JOHN. This new string orchestra arrangement by James Kazik captures all the wonder (and waggish humor) of the hit 1990 movie Home Alone. Retaining many of the quirky rhythms and chromaticism of the original, this arrangement will provide opportunities for your students to grow and develop in the context of this fun and accessible medley. / Date parution : 2023-01-24/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

Par VIVALDI ANTONIO. Vivaldi's popular classic, The Four Seasons, is a piece every aspiring string player wants to play. But to perform it in its original form - four substantial concerti, each with a virtuoso solo part - is beyond the reach of many school or amateur orchestras. These arrangements, Scenes from the Four Seasons, aim to bring Vivaldi's music within the scope of students and amateurs while keeping much of its original form and character. Includes the Birdsong (from 'Spring'), Harvest Home (from 'Autumn') and Fireside (from 'Winter')./ Répertoire / Set de Cordes

For a special touch at your next concert, feature one of Canada's most popular folk songs. Often sung to keep time while canoeing or around campfires, the lyrics are originally from a 19th century poem by First Nations poet Pauline Johnson, making this perfect for cross-cultural study. Although this work can easily be performed with strings alone, percussion instruments, including timpani and bells, expand the palette of colors, helping to create a rich tapestry for your listeners.

for String Orchestra Score and Parts. Par GUTHRIE WOODY. After a brief introduction the violas introduce the first melodic theme then pass it to the first violins in octaves as This Land Is Your Land by Woody Guthrie, Level 4 arrangement by Ethan Epple develops. Epple sets the Americana stage in This Land Is Your Land through staccato, shifting to 5th position, creating a broad pitch range, pizzicato, syncopation and a key change moving seamlessly from D Major to G Major, while each instrument carries the melody and counter melody. Ethan Epple\'s version of This Land Is Your Land must be in your library for recruitment, Veterans Day, Flag Day, the Fourth of July, or just because This Land Is Your Land creatively rounds out your next concert. / Date parution : 2022-07-30/ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

This blast to the past will motivate, captivate, and elevate your students with old school '60s soul sound, an infectious, danceable rhythm, and a triumphant finish. Written in 12/8, the tune begins with a ballad-like introduction for solo cello and then moves around the sections. Each instrument has a chance to improvise or solo in the written-out solo section. Authentic sounding riffs, complete with grace notes and a shout chorus, add to the fun of compound meter rock. A sure audience pleaser and a terrific end to a concert or first half!
