Inspired by the gift of a frog guiro as well as the works of Percy Grainger, composer Standridge has created a delightful aural visit to an imaginary pond. In creating this “amphibious” work, the composer has used melodies that involve small “leaps” representing the frogs jumping about in their pond, trills representing buzzing insects, and of course the above-mentioned frog guiro. Your students and audience will revel in the delightful aural painting of the life of a pond. (3:00)
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.
