Goliath

Goliath is sure to be a giant hit for your beginning orchestra. With down bow strokes and a trudging repeated bass line, the immediate sense of the piece is heavy. Written in the beginner-friendly key of D, with a straightforward chordal structure, Goliath has a very light-hearted melody. Midway through the piece, the cello and bass section play a modest melody accompanied by the remaining instruments. The piece concludes with the original melody and a giant unison finale.
