Freedom Rhapsody Level 2

Overture to Pulcinella by Igor Stravinsky

Arranged by Robert D. McCashin

Featuring the overture of Stravinskys landmark work, this adaptation was drawn from the original piano/vocal ballet score, and retains all of the original, well-known thematic and rhythmic material. An ideal way to feature several soloists within the ensemble, this outstanding string arrangement will delight players and audience alike! 

Skip Henderson/ arr. Larry Moore

Based on the traditional tune Fisher's Hornpipe and heard in the blockbuster film Pirates of the Caribean: Dead Man's Chest

Transposed to A major, Larry Moore's edition of this signature tune from new sensation Black Violin is cutting-edge programming for string groups.

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.

Pirates of Caribbean arranged for String Orchestra

Disney's adventure film has become a must-see for audiences of all ages. Ted Ricketts adapted the film score for string ensembles with this well-paced medley that captures the most dramatic moments from the original soundtrack.

Robert Lopez Kristen Anderson-Lopez/ arr. Larry Moore 

Disney has once again created a blockbuster film filled with memorable, engaging songs that students will love to perform. The Oscar nominated song Let it go is re-created in this superb setting for strings by Larry Moore.
