A New Dawn for String Orchestra Level 2
A New Dawn is a lilting and joyful work that celebrates new life, growth, and new beginnings. Written in a Neo-Classical style, this melodic piece spreads the wealth among the different sections of the orchestra, giving everyone a chance to shine. Weaving back and forth between the main theme and more lyrical sections in the relative minor key, A New Dawn winds up on a positive note with the final recapitulation of the main theme.
This whimsical Khachaturian theme is perfect for teaching intervals and chromatic fingerings. Violas use half position, and first violins will shift to third position. Cellos and violas are featured in the second theme, and this abridged arrangement omits the middle section. A more advanced full transcription for string orchestra is also available. (355152)

Space Ninja is an energetic piece for young orchestra and percussion. Featuring an accentuated spiccato rhythmic melody, this composition combines Eastern sounds with sonorous Western harmonies. It is a great piece to introduce the key of C Major/A minor to a young string group, and the excitement generated by the unique rhythmic approach and percussion will provide for a great change of pace on any program.
