    Fiddlers Ahoy! By Stephen Chin

    $112.95

    This nautical-themed piece starts with violas and cellos evoking the swell of waves. The seconds create sea breeze sounds; the first violin plays the main theme energetically. Everyone gets a chance to participate, and the middle section featuring cellos is eerie. The suspenseful wait for the sea breezes to pick up again adds to the effect, and the piece ends with a fun and lively section.

    Fiddlers Ahoy! By Stephen Chin

    As the music begins, a nautical theme emerges, taking the listener on a journey across the sea. The violas and cellos create a sensation of the swell of the waves, while the seconds produce the sound of the gentle sea breeze through easy open string crossings. The first violin then comes in, energetically playing the main theme in double quavers as if leading the way on this exciting voyage. As the piece progresses, each instrument takes its turn, contributing to the movement and energy of the music.

    In the middle section of the piece, the cellos take centre stage, evoking an atmosphere of mystery and intrigue, like that of a ghost ship. This section creates a sense of suspense as if the music is waiting for something to happen. And then, suddenly, the sea breeze picks up again, and the piece builds to a rollicking, lively end that is truly fun to play.

    Overall, this piece takes the listener on a thrilling journey across the sea, evoking vivid images of the ocean, sea breezes, and even ghost ships.

    Divertimento By Mozart Arr. Stephen Chin

    Originally written for wind ensemble and later arranged for pianoforte, these charming movements have been carefully placed to give the sense of a fully integrated work. Some elements of this work are similar in vein to Mozart's famous "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik." Advanced intermediate players will enjoy the challenges of spiccato quavers, martele crotchets, measured tremolo, and lifted upbows, which are a must for developing precision and clarity in a more advanced string ensemble.

    Chin, Haydn Symphony No.60 1st Movement

    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.
