Apple seed in my banana by Lauren Bernofsky (FJH Music Company) Take your string orchestra in a new direction with this infectiously catchy tune. Written by a seasoned composer of pedagogical music for strings, the piece features extremely playable chromatic passages. The most notable feature of the piece is an optional vamp section, which allows players to improvise a solo as the orchestra accompanies. Unleash your players’ creativity, and prepare to be amazed by what your students can do! (3:00) Contains: 1 Conductors full score 8 Violin 1 8 Violin 2 5 Violin 3 (Viola TC) 5 Viola 5 Cello 5 Double Bass
Feature every section of your orchestra in this swashbuckling piece! Three distinct "pirate" themes are given to the violins, violas, and cellos/basses to allow all players a chance to shine. All seafaring melodies stay in first position with minimal low-two finger patterns and lots of doubling for a big, full sound. Each section takes an adventurous turn into new tonalities before joining forces at the end for a triumphant finale! (Grade 1.5, Dur 2:40)
