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

This musical score offers a delightful escape with charming Mexican touches that will take you down memory lane.

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.
