Raindrop Serenade By Lauren Bernofsky (FJH)
Raindrop Serenade for String Orchestra (Grade 1) by Lauren Bernofsky
Dragon Slayer for string ensemble by Robert Grice
A Grade 1 level ensemble piece arranged for violin 1, violin 2 (or viola), viola, cello, double bass, piano and percussion
Using only six notes and note values no smaller than a quarter note, Rob Grice has managed to compose a piece that every beginning band student will want to play. Brake drum and gong contribute to the overall effect as your band embarks on its adventurous journey to a world where dragons roam free and no one is safe. Mild dissonance is approached very well — if you're looking to fire up your youngest players, this is your answer!

Raindrop Serenade for String Orchestra (Grade 1) by Lauren Bernofsky
Feature a guest artist or star student in this piece that includes an advanced level violin solo along with a more approachable solo for the younger, yet ambitious student. Well within the technical grasp of young orchestras, the music is designed to allow the soloist to display both technique and lyricism as the piece moves through a series of "diversions" held together by a common theme. Inspiring for your students and your audience! (4:30)
Voyage of the Dragon Armada (The Maritime Expeditions of Zheng He) by Loest (FJH)
Embark on a journey across the high seas with Neridah Oostenbroek's gusty piece that captures the rogue nature of Caribbean pirates. Featuring contrasting sections and techniques such as harmonics, pizzicato, and double stops, there is never a dull moment. Sure to be a student favorite! (2:45)
