Description

This treasured Baroque aria provides young string players with an opportunity to develop beautiful tone, vibrato and intonation in the key of B-flat. Solemn and stately, the melodic phrases are shared between the upper strings, while the cello and bass experience the responsibility of the basso continuo, making each note a pearl of musical beauty while setting the foundation for the harmonies in the inner voices.

Mozart arr. Gruselle, Symphony No. 19, Movement 4 for String Orchestra Grade 3 (FJH)

This arrangement is rich with pedagogical and musical opportunity! Written by a 16-year-old Mozart, it is in Rondo form with distinct key centers to establish hand patterns and excellent intonation. It uses sudden dynamic changes for dramatic effect, reinforces off-the-string bowing, and further develops speed and facility in the left hand. A complete package from the Classical era! (3:45)
