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..

Wie die Charakterbezeichnungen der sieben Satze verraten, soll dem Lernenden eine Reihe von musikalischen Aufgaben angeboten werden, sich sowohl technisch als auch im lyrischen Bereich durch Anschlagskultur den Anforderungen zu stellen. Die Komposition soll in kurzen ubersichtlichen Formmodellen unterschiedliche Charaktere vermitteln. Sie ist in erster Linie als Beitrag fur junge Lernende an Musikschulen gedacht. Da im Ablauf der einzelnen Satze zunehmende Anforderungen gestellt werden, sollten diese auf Spieler aufgeteilt werden, die den jeweiligen Anspruchen gewachsen sind, wobei im Sinne eines Teamworks bei einem Konzert etwa auch der Lehrer sich mit dem Abschlussstuck (Nr. 7) beteiligen kann. Selbstverstandlich konnen die sieben Satze auch von einem Schuler dargeboten werden. (E. Urbanner)

Flex ible Flute Quartet - 4 flutes, alternate parts for alto and bass flutes included. These three short works make a great addition to the flute quartet repertoire. Lively and exciting, all parts share in driving the music forward. Tutti sections lead by the first flute alternate with contrapuntal sections where all players take an equal role. The first is in B flat major, the second in C and the third and final one in the set is also in B flat major. All are fast, and require some neat tonguing particularly from flute one. Players of grade 4/5 standard should be able to tackle these. Alternate parts are included so the alto flute may be replaced by a concert flute, and the bass flute may be replaced by an alto flute.
