Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Will Champion, Jon Buckland/ arr. John Berry
Recorded by Coldplay in 2008, Viva La Vida has shown is has staying power with its string s=rhymic base and catchy meldoies. This easy arrangement will sound great with limited rehearsal time.
Wild West Hoedown Level 2.5
This bright change-of-pace work evokes the toe-tapping sounds of the old west as settlers circle the wagons round for a Saturday night hoedown. Featuring athletic, yet very playable fiddle-style tunes that wander throughout the ensemble, the music also uses simple double-stops and contrasting rhythms that keep things moving along.
Sparkle! for String Orchestra Level 1
A bright concert selection to showcase developing playing skills! This lighthearted tune sparkles with simple rhythms and easy string crossings, using notes of the D and G scale. Every section of the orchestra gets melodic material, sprinkled with pizzicato throughout. Add a bit of bling with optional bells.
