The musical parts are well-balanced, ensuring that all ensemble sections participate enthusiastically. Additionally, the piece comes with an optional piano accompaniment.

    Fiddlers Ahoy! By Stephen Chin

    This nautical-themed piece starts with violas and cellos evoking the swell of waves. The seconds create sea breeze sounds; the first violin plays the main theme energetically. Everyone gets a chance to participate, and the middle section featuring cellos is eerie. The suspenseful wait for the sea breezes to pick up again adds to the effect, and the piece ends with a fun and lively section.
