Fiesta for String Orchestra by Anne Svendsen
This bright waltz in G major from ‘south of the border’ will bring the spirit and fun of a Mexican holiday to your orchestra! This likeable, light work introduces some rhythmic challenges, col legno, pizzicato accompaniment, and a happy tune that stays with you after the performance! (Includes piano and 3rd violin.)
Keith Sharp's contemporary piece in D major is enjoyable to play and suitable for beginners. It features echo effects and melodious accompanying lines and is graded as a B for primary school and a C for high school.
