This incredibly powerful lyrical work by Brian Balmages draws its DNA from a series of suspended harmonies that constantly flow throughout the ensemble. Designed to expand the artistic norms often associated with younger ensembles, Sunset Suspended is equally appropriate for intermediate or advanced orchestras. Stunning. (3:00)
Through the jungles of southern Mexico, the Aztec Warrior's journey is full of adventure and danger. This is a fun work for grade 1 groups in B minor which uses only D and A string notes. Duration 1:30.
Chin, Haydn Symphony No.60 1st Movement
This arrangement for strings is faithful to the original work with the added features of sharing the melodic lines, a slight editing of a few bars of the bass part, a violin 3 part and a keyboard realization. It is also an excellent way to develop Classical style spiccato in more advanced players.
