Sixteen Sensational Solos - Viola (Grade 1) with CD
Stephen Chin is an Australian composer and music teacher. He was born in 1959 and is currently Principal String Teacher at Brisbane Grammar School. He wrote many educational music pieces as well as pieces for student string orchestras.
Pleyel, a renowned musician and entrepreneur in early 19th century Paris, wrote a beautiful piece for two violins in the late Classical style. The piece follows the sonata form and features a brooding first theme contrasted with an impish second theme played in staccato quavers. The movement ends with a lively duel between the violins, adding vibrancy and passion to the piece. Your orchestra will love it!
