Balmages, Little Critters for String Orchestra Grade 1 (FJH)

$108.00

The vivid imagery of "little critters" scurrying about at night inspires the melodic lines and creative harmonies used throughout this programmatic work. Beginning soft and mischievous, the music builds as new critters join the fun in a playful dialogue. The harmonic language moves between moments of pleasant consonance and slight dissonance (because as we all know, some people love little critters and some people are terrified of them!). A highly imaginative, playable work! (Grade 1, Dur 2:15)

Balmages, Five Before Beethoven for String Orchestra Grade 1.5 - 2 (FJH)

A great compliment to the composer's popular work A Beethoven Lullaby, this original piece pays homage to Beethoven's fifth symphony, immersing students in the style of the first movement without feeling like they are playing a watered-down arrangement. Conductors will surely notice the many nods (both subtle and not so subtle) to Beethoven's masterpiece while also exploring original themes. (Grade 1.5 - 2, Dur 2:30)
