Art
Sheinberg has discovered
a gem from the late
English Baroque keyboard
literature and expertly
scored it to sound as if
it were originally for
strings. The violin ll
and viola parts are often
doubled, as are the cello
and bass parts; there are
essentially three parts
throughout. This gives a
full and balanced sound
which accommodates uneven
instrumentation. Violin l
parts are in third
position much of the
time, and alternate
fingerings given for the
other parts will keep
other advanced players
busy. The piece is in D
major throughout, with
the exception of brief
excursions into A and B
minor. Full of rhythmic
drive and sparkling
counterpoint, the piece
is a sure winner with
students and an excellent
vehicle to teach detached
style and ensemble
independence. This title
is available in MakeMusic
Cloud.
