You've heard of a fiddler on the roof? Well, how about an orchestra on the housetop! Feature the entire string orchestra, section by section, at your next winter concert (even bassists, who are cued in the cello line). Using just six notes, this new arrangement of an old holiday favorite is cleverly scored to sound rich and full. Optional percussion adds to the festivities. A perfect format for bolstering group confidence while promoting section independence! (1:30)
In a world of sorcerers, magic, elven warriors, and fantastical creatures, anything is possible. This musical adventure continues the story from Thomas's popular Land of Dragons. In this chapter, a lively band of warriors join the quest. The music includes fierce rhythmic interplay, syncopation, and soaring melodies. A solo ocarina (optional violin or flute) and a lively percussion section add to the cinema-style orchestration. An entrancing addition to your concert program! (3:30)
Get ready to have some fun with this energetic western-style romp! Showcasing a melody that weaves its way through every section, the piece also makes use of open string drones and syncopated rhythms, bringing the country-style flair to life. Outstanding and infectious! (2:30)
