ALLA TCHAIKOVSKY
Basic Library

arr. Richard Meyer
ALFRED PUBLISHING
Medium Easy

Check out this fabulous show-stopper, because it's a "must-play" for your orchestra! Incorporating 22 different melodies from the works of Tchaikovsky, this is an incredibly clever and sometimes humorous medley that even includes the 1812 Overture accompanied by the popping of paper bags! It's amazing how seamlessly each melody leads into the next. You would think Tchaikovsky himself had intended it to work like this. We guarantee that everyone...students, audience, and yes, even grumpy musicologists will find this delightful piece simply irresistible!

It's usually the brass and percussion that get all the fun patriotic tunes, but here's a great medley of patriotic tunes just for strings! Yankee Doodle; You're a Grand Old Flag; Columbia Gem of The Ocean; and Dixie are arranged with all the thrills and trills you would expect. Although written around the medium level, this one could be played by Medium-Easy level orchestras with enough rehearsal time. It's exciting and uplifting!

BACH COUNTRY FIDDLES

J.S. Bach/Meyer
ALFRED PUBLISHING
Easy

Two classic melodies get the fiddle treatment in this clever arrangement from Richard Meyer! The themes from J.S. Bach's Minuet in G and Brandenburg Concerto #5 work just fine with a few fiddle licks thrown in! Carefully arranged with the young performer in mind, this delightful piece has a "virtuoso sound" but is playable by groups at the easy level. A selection that's fun for the players and enjoyable for the audience!
