Overture to Rienzi for String Orchestra Level 4.5
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.

String Players Union for String Orchestra Level 2.5
Show your great sense of humour with this novelty piece that winds up creating near chaos in your ensemble! When the first violins join a local branch of the String Players Union, the other musicians and director soon learn that the union members must adhere to some hilarious performance guidelines. Accommodations include playing only some notes, giving the left hand a rest and even left hand free time! Staging possibilities are endless as this piece is easy to put together and is guaranteed to bring a smile to everyone in the hall!
Themes from Carmen for String Orchestra Level 3.5
This accessible yet authentic arrangement is based on four well-known themes from Bizet's popular opera:
- Prelude
- Aragonaise (Dance of Aragon)
- Habanera
- Dance Boheme (Gypsy Dance)
From the foreboding introduction to the dancing and swirling ending, this spectacular arrangement has it all!
Two lively Irish/Celtic jigs, one in major and one in modal/minor, are skilfully scored for developing groups in this delightful medley for strings. The tuneful folk melodies are ideal for introducing triple-based meters to younger string students. Includes: Father O'Flynn's and The Gobby-O. (2:14)
