Allegro Dramatico By Mazas Arr. Stephen Chin
Mazas, a renowned composer, is widely recognized for his highly effective etudes. However, he also left a vast legacy of various chamber ensemble works. This particular composition, dating back to the early nineteenth century, was originally written as a duet for two violins and showcases the late Classical and early Romantic styles. The music is characterized by sharp rhythmic patterns and extended lyrical melodies that are sure to captivate the players and audience alike. The piece is beautifully crafted with energy and dramatic contrasts, making it a splendid choice for String Orchestra at level 3.5.
