Travel back in time to the era of the Roman legionary as you experience music that portrays the rugged and exciting story of a Roman soldier.

Powerful moments are passed throughout the ensemble in this adventurous addition to your next concert program!
An exciting piece that explores self-paced developing music for literally any combination of instruments. Inspired by Terry Riley's In C, the piece includes short fragments that performers move through at their own pace. Explore pacing, development and orchestration with this piece that works for literally any possible combination of instruments!
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)
