Orchestra violin 1, violin 2, violin 3, viola, cello, bass - Grade 2

SKU: CF.YAS236F

Composed by Jay Coles. Yas. Full score. Duration 3 minutes, 44 seconds. Carl Fischer Music #YAS236F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS236F).

ISBN 9781491165287. UPC: 680160924196. Key: E minor.

Intrepid is full of chaotic energy. It’s a fast-paced, aggressive, and all-around powerful work for young string players that makes them sound mature beyond their abilities. This piece is perfect for teaching accents, staccatos, as well as a marcato style of bowing. The melody passes from section to section as the piece progresses.The chaotic energy begins in measure 1. Don’t be afraid to allow the cellos and basses to come out strong, punching the “G” on beat 3 for maximum intensity. This opening section should drive hard leading to the main theme in measure 12, beginning in the cello and bass sections. Pay close attention to the accents. Articulating those correctly is important for building up to the climactic moment that happens at the end.The brief, slow middle section is a great legato section to teach young musicians musicality and musicianship. Starting at measure 68, the main melodic material returns and juxtaposes and floats through various sections of the orchestra until the piece reaches a dramatic conclusion. The ending uses heavy tremolo, but all tremolos are optional throughout. Have fun performing Intrepid!

UPC: 841300102410. 16.0x26.5x17.0 inches.

Faster and easier Cable-free DJing without sound delays is now possible with the WAVE-EIGHT thanks to SonicLink. This new ultra-low-latency technology wirelessly transmits audio much faster than a Bluetooth connection so only a fraction of a second passes between pressing play on the decks and hearing the track through the speakers, which lets you mix without missing a beat. Take the included transmitter out of its storage compartment on the WAVE-EIGHT and connect it to your DJ gear, and you can instantly create a wireless connection, enabling you to throw a DJ party anywhere you want. And if you combine the WAVE-EIGHT with the new OMNIS-DUO portable all-in-one DJ system, which features battery power, you can play cable-free for total freedom. Professional sound with effortless setup With a highly efficient Class D amplifier, a newly designed 8-inch driver, and a Vortex Bass Accelerator which delivers clear and powerful bass, the WAVE-EIGHT will bring the vibes and the punch to your party's sound, even in outdoor settings. To cover larger events and spaces, you can easily add more units to your setup with the SonicLink connection: e.g., using 2 speakers in stereo for an expansive experience, or with a third added as a dedicated subwoofer for a club-like heavy bass sound. There are even several modes you can change between with a single switch to create the type of sound you need, including Mono, Stereo, and Subwoofer mode. Battery power and waterproof design for outdoor events A full battery charge gives you 8 hours of music on the WAVE-EIGHT so you can keep the tunes going throughout the evening and night. The unit is also waterproof, with an IPX4 rating, so it's ideal for using outdoors. And, if you need to charge your phone or another device, you can plug it into the USB Type-C port. Find party venues wherever you go The extendable handle, casters, and additional grab handles make it easy to carry the WAVE-EIGHT to any location on your own. There's a pole socket built-in, too, so you can mount the speaker on a stand for extra height, making it ideal for use in a variety of locations.

Orchestra String Orchestra - Grade 2-2.5

SKU: CF.YAS52

Composed by Sean O'Loughlin. Carl Fischer Young String Orchestra Series. Classical. Score and Parts. With Standard notation. 12 pages. Carl Fischer Music #YAS52. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS52).

ISBN 9780825863608. UPC: 798408063603. 8.5 X 11 inches. Key: D major.

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.
