New edition of the full score of this 8-minute work composed in 1928. Highly passionate in character and rich in its melodic invention, Finzi's writing here is characteristically open-hearted and approachable. From the stillness of the opening, the music unfolds, reaching a peak of intensity before returning to its roots.This miniature is a string orchestral gem to set alongside Elgar's Introduction and Allegro. / Orchestre A Cordes

Suite for strings. Par LORD JON. Jon Lord dedicated the Suite for string orchestra to Sir Malcolm Arnold who is portrayed in the first movement. Another two musical pictures (his mother and an old friend) make the study of analogies and contrasts of the persona complete./ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

Wonderful for teaching Baroque style and bowing concepts, this piece features limited third position for the violins, cellos, and basses. Violas share in the thematic materials with string basses, mostly sharing the basso continuo line with cellos. This movement from Telemann's Sonata in A for String Quartet has been perfectly set by Robert Sieving. (3:20) / Orchestre A Cordes

for String Orchestra Score and Parts. Par HAENDEL GEORG FRIEDRICH. In the key of G Major, the work begins with a Moderato where dotted rhythms are abundant. A brief Adagio intervenes and we continue with a slightly fugal, crisply rhythmic Allegro, with 16th note passage work for the upper strings. After another brief Adagio, Handel finishes with a lyric Minuet. All sections are active throughout. This Overture is a wonderful introduction to the Baroque period and the bowing and ornamental styles that go with it./ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes
