    The Cliffs of Moher (Stephen Chin) for String Orchestra

    $148.00

    The Cliffs of Moher, rising about 200 meters above the Atlantic on Ireland's west coast, are home to many birds and sea life, such as grey seals and dolphins. In this work, I aimed to capture the feeling of sea spray, the beauty of green pastures, and the vibrant atmosphere of nearby towns, using musical textures such as pizzicato, sustained notes, bass melodies, and a reflective violin solo.

    The Cliffs of Moher (Stephen Chin) for String Orchestra

    The Moher Cliffs are located on Ireland's west coast and rise approximately 200 meters above the Atlantic Ocean. These towering cliffs are home to large colonies of birds, and a diverse array of sea life, including grey seals, porpoises, dolphins, and minke whales, can be seen in the surrounding waters.

    In this work, I aimed to express several emotions and experiences, such as the sensation of sea spray on one's face, the nostalgic beauty of the green pastures, the lively atmosphere of the nearby towns, and the majestic presence of the cliffs. To convey these feelings, I incorporated a variety of musical textures, including gentle pizzicato, sustained higher notes, melodic bass lines, a reflective violin solo, and persistent quaver rhythms.

    La Follia By Corelli Arr Stephen Chin

    Arcangelo Corelli (1653 - 1713) was a Baroque composer who set the standard for musical composition in his time. This piece is based on the last of his opus five violin sonatas, which includes twenty-four variations on the Spanish melody "La Follia". The arrangement presents five variations after the theme is introduced, with each upper-string section playing the tune fully against Corelli's original figurations. The main theme returns in an opulent manner.

    Allegro Molto by Franz Schubert arr. Stephen Chin

    Schubert's Sonatina Op. 137, No. 1's Allegro molto movement, originally for violin and piano, has been arranged for strings, making it more accessible.

    Composer Franz Schubert was a skilled violinist who wrote over 12 string quartets by age 19. His first three violin sonatas, including Sonata No. 1 in D major, D 384, were later published as Sonatinas in 1836. The charming piece of music is relatively easy to perform.

    Schubert's "März 1816" sonata has an intimate atmosphere, perfect for a small ensemble. It features three movements: Allegro molto, Andante, and Allegro vivace. The Allegro molto is a lively and fast-paced movement, followed by a slower, more contemplative Andante. The piece concludes with a rousing Allegro vivace.
