In this wonderfully evocative piece of music Bobrowitz describes a deep water dive to find a long lost city. This compelling musical journey conveys a sense of ever-deepening awe at the magical underwater seascape. All sections of the orchestra contribute to the melodic fabric of this unique musical journey. (4:16)
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)
The “Spitfire” was a single-seat fighter airplane successfully used by the Allies in World War II against the German Luftwaffe. With its rhythmically-charged parts for every member of the orchestra and dynamic percussion parts, the composer has created an exhilarating musical evocation of the daily life of a fighter pilot taking part in the Battle of Britain. Use this exciting work to add some variety and “zing” to your orchestra concert! (3:10)
Ivan Ivanovici, Romanian Waltz for String Orchestra. Arranged by Cameron Law. Published by Grand Mesa Music.
This gorgeous string work would be appropriate for any concert, but would be especially fitting in a memorial concert. Starting with a haunting piano chord progression the solo piano leads to a melancholic melody in the violins. The B section then gives the cellos a chance to show off their abilities to emote. After the piece builds to an intense forte it gradually fades back into the opening chord pattern. This unusually beautiful string work will leave your audience moved emotionally and impressed with your groups ability to play with great sensitivity and expressiveness. (3:49)
