Longfield, Poker Face (Lady Gaga) For String Orchestra

Max Martin, Taylor Swift, Sellback/ arr. Larry Moore. 

The mega chart topper from Taylor Swift 

Hamilton is without question the most creative, talked-about musical to hit Broadway this millennium. In this standout selection from the show, the lead characters lay out their plans for victory, despite their personal hardships. Arranged for strings and a vocalist by Paul Lavendar and Larry Moore, this is a clever way to connect orchestra students with contemporary music.

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!

Arr. Sean O'Loughlin 

The band One republic performs music that reflects many musical influences, from rock to pop to indie and more. This recent hit has a driving rhythm and unforgettable chorus.
