Silent Night Arranged by Eric Morales This breathtaking arrangement may quite possibly be the highlight of your winter program. Lush harmonies support a gorgeous presentation of the melody that goes through a series of haunting and magical settings. There are also several opportunities to feature your principal violinist.
This fantastic arrangement of dances from the 17th century Renaissance period includes three movements, beginning with La Bouree, a lively and spirited dance. The beautiful Pavane alternates between major and minor tonalities. The final movement, Spagnoletta and Courante, is in a lilting 6/8 time. Tenor drum is optional, but highly effective and approachable. A delightful journey into the past and an excellent way to develop independence between sections. (4:15)
