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!
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)
