Ballet No. 6

In this orchestral excerpt from Joseph Bologne's only surviving opera, L'Amant Anonyme (The Anonymous Lover), students will learn how to play in the Classical-era style, 6/8 meter at a prestissimo tempo, ternary form, and more. The cello part includes a number of viola cues that can be helpful if there is a smaller viola section in the ensemble. First violin, second violin, and viola parts are entirely in first position but require extended fingerings.
