Bud Caputo presents Nutcracker Suite Selections for string orchestra featuring three abridged movements of?Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite:?Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, March, and Trepak. These abridged movements are sure to be crowd-pleasers around the?winter holidays or a favorite for?any time of the year.
This arrangement will challenge students, while fostering rhythmic independence, execution of bowing and pizzicato, and the ability to balance the melody with the accompaniment throughout the arrangement. However, ranges remain primarily in first position with some optional 8va< span class=s4> passages, allowing intermediate groups to perform this in time for the winter holiday concert. Suitable for Grades 3 through 5. To the Director: Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy: A steady tempo is critical when performing this movement, as students may have a tendency to rush during the pizzicato sections. There is a regularly occurring descending sixteenth-note rhythmic figure that is transcribed form the bass clarinet part in the original. It is important to maintain clarity and balance in performing these passages as seen in mm. 16-19, in the Basses and m. 34 in the Cello and Bass. The balancing of the chords will be a challenge in the execution of the many sforzandos in this movement. March: Measures 2 and 4, and similar melodic patterns that follow, require the performers to carefully balance their forte/pianos on beats 3 and 4, along with the rapid diminuendo. The contrasting rhythmic patterns in mm. 5-8, and later throughout this movement must line up precisely. Strings playing the pizzicato eight note, walking bass line, must not rush, and the upper strings playing the eighth-note/eight-rest figure must follow their section leaders in executing this in a unified manner. While there is no formal tempo change from mm. 40 to 41, directors may need to relax the tempo at the beginning of the movement to accommodate the technical challenge of the double time feel that happens in m. 41. Trepak: Tchaikovsky was careful to notate the p, f and sf, requiring the performers to recognize the difference between all three markings that frame the chief melody. The upper strings must be careful to support the melody in the lower strings that begins in m. 33. Directors will challenge their students to have fun in the last twelve measures with the accelerando passage to the end. Care must be taken to use an accelerando that works for all the players in the particular ensemble..

Composed by Viktor Kosenko. Arranged by Robert Debbaut. Carl Fischer Concert String Orchestra Series. Full score. 28 pages. Carl Fischer Music #CAS139F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CAS139F).

ISBN 9781491160800. UPC: 680160919406.

The works of Viktor Kosenko (1896-1938) - highly regarded in his lifetime as concertmaster, pianist, educator, and composer - became known to the arranger through his Russian-American wife, Alina, a teacher of young violinists and pianists. She owned an old out-of-print anthology of works by both Soviet composers and other world-renowned composers entitled The Young Violinist. Inspired by these lovely melodies, Debbaut compiled and arranged a collection of music exclusively by Soviet composers entitled The Young Soviet Violinist as well as published collections of all four of Kosenko's Four Children's Pieces, arranged for violin and piano, flute and piano, viola and piano, and cello and piano. Four Children's Pieces for piano (1930) were the first works the educational pioneer Kosenko wrote with young pianists in mind based on his own personal deep knowledge of the main objectives of a teacher. Arranged here for string orchestra, this charming suite features four delightful movements: I. Scherzino, II. Melody, III. Olden Dance, and IV. March. Each contrasting theme can be performed alone or as a full performance of all four movements.

She owned an old out-of-print anthology of works by both Soviet composers and other world-renowned composers entitled The Young Violinist. Inspired by these lovely melodies, Debbaut compiled and arranged collections of all four of Kosenko’s Four Children’s Pieces for Violin and Piano, Flute and Piano, Viola and Piano, and Cello and Piano. Four Children’s Pieces for piano (1930) were the first works the educational pioneer Kosenko wrote with young pianists in mind based on his own personal deep knowledge of the main objectives of a teacher. Arranged here for String Orchestra, this charming suite features four delightful movements: I. Scherzino, II. Melody, III. Olden Dance, and IV. March. Each contrasting theme can be performed alone or as a full performance of all four movements.

Lev Kogan
Klezmer Dance Suite for clarinet, strings, percussion, and tuba
arranged by Alan Kaufman, with cadenzas by Gene Kavadlo
Score. A set of parts may be ordered separately.
There is also an edition for small ensemble including a score and one copy each part, SKU 37019set
I have been Principal Clarinetist with the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, North Carolina, since 1975. My interest in klezmer music began in 1984 when I realized how unique the clarinet voice can be in the klezmer idiom - it is totally different from playing in a symphony orchestra, and I found that unique voice to be very appealing. I formed a quartet called Viva Klezmer!, and we have been concertizing and recording ever since.
I discovered Lev Kogan's Hassidic Tunes for Clarinet and Piano a number of years ago and was struck by the lovely melodies and harmonies that Mr. Kogan had composed. The tunes were always enjoyed by audiences whenever I performed them, and it occured to me that several of them could be orchestrated and grouped together to form a very attractive klezmer suite. I enlisted the aid of my talented colleague, Alan Kaufman, and the result is this publication. There is dearth of klezmer music featuring clarinet with orchestra or chamber ensemble, and this publication helps fill that void.
The suite can be performed with orchestra or, if percussion and tuba are unavailable, as chamber music with clarinet and strings. In the absence of tuba, the part may be played by another bass instrument.

Since then, he has been a performer, arranger, educator, producer and composer of commercial jingles, recordings and movie and television soundtracks. He has produced albums and/or has arranged for an array of groups from The Buddy Rich Band to performing with artists as diverse as Luciano Pavoratti and Bernadette Peters, to Dave Brubeck and Johnny Cash. Since 1978, Alan has resided in Charlotte, NC where he continues his musical journey.
