The fast
paced rondo has a Dorian
flavored melody with
hints of quartel (based
on an interval of a
fourth) harmony to give
it a contemporary sound
The players are presented
with solo opportunities
as well as harmonic turns
and twists that will keep
them. Rondo in the
Nick of Time was
originally the third
movement for a woodwind
quintet piece that I
wrote in 1990. I have
always been fond of this
little piece and felt
that it would adapt well
to larger ensembles. I
have also scored this
piece for band as part of
a suite called Upon a
New Horizon.The main
theme is based on the
Dorian Mode. The use of
quartal harmony makes up
most of the harmonic
material. Each statement
of the theme is followed
by an episode that
increases in length each
time. There is a sudden
change of style and tempo
in the middle of the
piece, where fragments of
the theme are developed.
The title is a
play-on-words, since the
work contains hemiola
effects that alter the
feel of the time.As with
all of my pieces for
strings, the bowings are
given only as a
reference. Feel free to
alter them to fit the
needs of your students. I
have indicated a rather
fast tempo for the piece.
I really like the piece
to fly, but it will work
and sound fine at a
slower tempo as well.
Just endeavor to keep
their energy moving
forward.It has been my
pleasure to have the
opportunity to write this
piece. I hope that you
and your students enjoy
it and find it useful in
your program.-Larry

Joseph
Compello depicts the
planet Mars with The Red
Planet, a heavy, brooding
piece in 5/4. This piece
provides cross-curricular
opportunities to work
with the school’s
science department. Best
of all, it will allow
your group to show off
the maturity of their
playing. The Red
Planet is an original
concert piece in time for
a string ensemble with at
least one year’s
training. The opening
section should be played
in a boldly aggressive
style. To give the parts
a less complex
appearance, staccato
quarter-notes are used in
lieu of eighth-notes
followed by eight-rests.
This notation will enable
young players to count
with greater ease.Notes
on the
performance:Measure 7
introduces the main theme
in the first
violins.Measure 15
introduces a secondary
theme which becomes
increasingly important as
thepiece
progresses.Measure 24
introduces a third theme
and its counter-melody.
This section should be
played in a lyrically
flowing style, in
contrast to the main
theme from m. 9.Measure
35, marked fugato, will
require particular
attention to entrances.
The playing style reverts
to the boldness of the
opening mood.Measure 55
is the recapitulation
with an addition of a new
chromatic line. This
line, given to first
violins, should be
soaring and equal in
volume to the main theme.
Note that the secondary
theme (originally played
in m. 15) is played only
after the repeat.Measure
66 should be played much
more slowly and in a
grandiose manner. Here,
the main theme should be
given much more weight
than it received in the
opening statement.Note
that at m. 68 the
secondary theme concludes
the piece ponderously in
thelow strings. The
conductor may dictate
each note at this point
and disregard the
meter.This arrangement
has been recorded by Carl
Fischer. The performance
is available on line free
of charge.Thank you for
choosing this
composition. I hope your
students and audience
will find it
instructiveand
enjoyable.Joseph

To all
extents and purposes,
Germany is the land of
artists, wrote Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy in
1831 while on his travels
in Italy; but Italy, he
added, is the land of
art. Indeed, everywhere
he went in Italy, the
22-year-old composer
found impulses for his
symphony: I have to save
the work until I have
seen Naples. But although
the country fired his
inspiration: It will be
the merriest piece that I
have ever written, he did
not actually write the
Italian Symphony there.
This did not occur until
early 1833, when
Mendelssohn obtained a
commission from London,
where he then conducted
the first performance in
May 1833. Begun the
following year, his
revision of the piece
remained fragmentary, and
the composer no longer
performed the work
himself. The familiar
London version thus
represents the only
closed form of the work
which the composer
presented to the public.
This is the version of
the Italian Symphony that
is now appearing in the
Breitkopf Urtext
collection based on the
Complete Edition.

Aspirations
is written for the most
beginning musicians. It
uses minimal material,
including no more than
two repeated eighth notes
as the most difficult
rhythm. It contains bold
fanfare gestures, marcato
main melodic material,
and a contrasting legato
theme. Every section of
the ensemble is featured
in this sophisticated
piece. Aspirations is
written for the youngest
and least experiences
musicians, who have only
had a short time on their
instruments. This piece
uses minimal material,
including no more than
two repeated eighth notes
as the most difficult
rhythm. When I
composepieces for young
people, I often try to
pick titles that will be
uplifting and inspiring.
Certainly, we want our
young musicians to aspire
to great things through
music.The pieces opens
with a fanfare type of
musical gesture. This
material is the glue that
holds the piece together.
It should be played
marcato throughout. The
main melody then follows,
first sparse and then
with the full ensemble. A
bridge section is
presented that is legato
that leads to a return of
the main melody. Some
development then begins
with fragments of the
melody taken by the lower
strings followed by
interjections by the
upper strings on the
opening fanfare material.
After this development,
the piece builds to one
final full statement of
the main melody and then
a short coda based on the
fanfare material to
bookend the piece.As with
all of my pieces for
young students, I
encourage you to adjust
the tempo to fit this
needs of your students.
My tempo is only a
recommendation and you
should chose a tempo that
best works for your
students.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

Thunderstruc
k is defined as being
extremely surprised or
shocked, which is the
tone of this piece from
the outset. The piece is
cinematic in nature and
hearkens back to some of
the great movie scores.
This will be just the
type of piece students
will love to practice and
play again and
again!. Thunderstruck
is a word I recently
heard in a speech I
attended. The word
immediately brought to
mind several musical
ideas. This piece is a
result of that
inspiration. For the
developing string
ensemble, it provides
many musicianship
teaching
opportunities.The music
is bold from the outset
and creates the setting
for an exciting piece.
Being very cinematic in
nature, it harkens to
some of the great movie
scores I enjoy. This bold
gesture is countered by a
rhythmic eighth-note
pattern at m. 9 that
returns throughout the
piece to provide balance
and counterpoint. The
dynamics at m. 37 are
incredibly important, so
make sure the ensemble
exaggerates them. The
section at m. 50 pulls
apart the previous
musical elements and
creates a colorful
tapestry of sound. Some
continued development of
both musical ideas
follows to generate the
final push to the
end.

Spirited
dance figures, catchy
melodies in canon, and a
majestic chorale will
make you want to say,
Shiver me timbers! This
clever composition by
Matt Turner plays to the
students love of pirates
and sea shanties. This is
a great piece to solidify
student's understanding
of compound
meter. Perform this
piece with exuberance!
The first part of this
piece is composed of
various dance
figures—sometimes
in canon—and
dynamics should be
strictly followed to
ensure that the melody
can be heard . The
descant (violin I) in mm
. 25–36 should be
played quietly so that
the melody in the second
violin and viola parts
can be heard . Use much
of the bow—think
lush and full—in
the chorale section
beginning in m . 93 .
Articulations throughout
are particularly
important to create a
dance-like feel . Enjoy
as you set sail on your
voyage!
