Crusade

Rally your orchestra and set forth on a Crusade! This bold and triumphant work gives beginning players the thrill of an epic while strengthening fundamental skills. Upper and lower strings trade themes in a spirited call-and-response, learning to lock in rhythm and balance as the music drives forward. With opportunities to refine forth-finger tuning and strengthen listening across the ensemble, Crusade is both exciting and educational; an ideal concert opener that makes young orchestras sound powerful, united, and ready for anything!
