Waltz (La plus que Lente) Debussy, Arr. by Matthew Moreno, Grade 4
Waltz (La plus que Lente) Arranged by Matthew Moreno
This beautiful and subdued waltz by Debussy is a unique and colorful addition to any concert program. Complex impressionistic harmonies support a delightful melody that goes through several iterations before a relaxed and satisfying ending. Debussy at his finest in a superb arrangement for strings!

This spectacular arrangement features four movements from Tchaikovsky's famous Album for the Young. Opening with the endearing Morning Prayer, the piece then moves into the lighthearted waltz, The Hurdy-Gurdy Man. The beautiful Sweet Dream sets the stage for the delightful last movement, March of the Wooden Soldiers. Remarkably faithful to the original while also quite accessible to younger students!

Commissioned by the National String Project Consortium, this gorgeous lyrical work can be performed alone as an intermediate level piece, or with multi-level supplemental parts (available separately) for beginning and developing string students. Orchestrated to celebrate inclusion and diversity, the multi-level option is designed to sound far "greater than" the intermediate version alone. Not your traditional festival orchestra piece by any means. (Grade 3, Dur 5:40)
