Grasshopper Chomp for String Orchestra by Anne Svendsen
Here’s another great teaching piece from Svendsen. The off-the-string (optional) bowing can represent the chomping of the grasshopper. Set in D major It’s an easy tune that offers flexible performance options by dividing out the players into melody players and harmony players. In this manner it could be done in a number of ways, from all low strings to a mixture of everyone.
In a snowy, mythical forest, knights ride fiercely, battling dark forces. Your orchestra will enjoy the haunting melodies and thrilling momentum.
