Autumn is a glorious time of year! The air cools, streets smell of fireplaces, and the trees burst into a one final display of loud amber and gold before they disappear into the silence of winter. Several variations of the main theme explore varying keys, time signatures and styles. The piece builds to a joyous finale, when all the variations overlap in a cacophony of jubilant counterpoint. Upbeat and festive! (3:45)
Raindrop Serenade for String Orchestra (Grade 1) by Lauren Bernofsky
Following the slow introduction, Beethoven's first symphony breaks into a lively and energetic Allegro, carrying listeners through a whirlwind of harmonies and keys. This arrangement authentically captures the lyricism and raw power of a masterpiece written by a young 29-year-old Beethoven. (4:00)
