    Forget Me Not Waltz for String Orchestra (Grade 3) by Keith Sharp

    The memory of old-time dancing during World War I still lingers, where couples would waltz away from the grim realities of the day. This musical score offers a delightful escape with charming Mexican touches that will take you down memory lane. The themes are shared between sections, with the double bass section melody contrasting with the upper strings’ pizzicato theme. Ensemble directors will appreciate the elements of informed educational design, including the skillfully integrated lines, sharing of roles, careful choices of left-hand progression, balanced strokes, and a satisfying yet manageable length. The duration of the score is approximately 2 minutes and 50 seconds, and it is written in the key of D major.
