    Two Portraits From Olde England Traditional Arr. Stephen Chin

    Both of these musical compositions are deeply rooted in the rich and vibrant tradition of English folk songs. The Greens Bushes is a poignant and melancholic piece that tells the story of a lover who has lost his beloved to someone else. The use of legato bowing, harmonics, and gentle pizzicato notes creates a sense of longing and wistfulness that is sure to tug at the heartstrings of the listener.

    In contrast, The Wraggle Taggle Gypsies is a lively and spirited piece that captures the free-spirited nature of a wandering group of nomads and their hilarious exploits. The bold and robust notes used in this composition evoke a sense of adventure and excitement as if the listener is right there with the gypsies on their journey. Together, these two pieces showcase the incredible range and versatility of English folk music.

    Au revoir Budapest by Stephen Chin

    "Good-bye Budapest" is a traditional Hungarian czardas-style music piece. It begins with a haunting melody and languid strings, which then transition into a joyous free-for-all with various orchestra sections taking turns. A melancholic solo violin rendition is followed by the return of the czardas in D major, culminating in a ferocious presto. The music showcases a range of emotions, from introspection to frenzied joy and melancholy to ferocity.

    After the snowy start, climbers get to work. The fast melody depicts their chiselling on an icy rock face. A calm middle section shows the view from the top before the chiselling continues down. Younger players will love this energetic piece with catchy tunes and strong harmonies.
