Along with Lunchtime Jam (HL04491555) and Recess Boogie Woogie (HL04491557), educator and composer Ron DeGrandis provides solid teaching and terrific programming pieces for beginning level string students.
Arranged here for flexible soloist and strings, this haunting melody from Argentine tango composer Astor Piazzolla provides an impressive showcase for a violin, flute, or oboe soloist. Beautifully scored for string orchestra and carefully paced.
Relive the opera overture that lead to one of Wagners earliest successes! This setting fully retains all the thematic, rhythmic and musical intent of the original orchestra version. Orchestrated to stay true to the vast scope and dimension of the original setting, this exciting work will compliment any program as an overture or as a big-finish closer!
