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.

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!
