Lullaby for Christmas

String Orchestra Multi-Level

This lovely and lyrical original offers you an interesting optional performance possibility: string quartet with string orchestra.  This music can be played as string orchestra alone, but comes with parts for more advanced violin 1, violin 2, viola, and cello.  It's a nice chance to mix groups.

Reflections

This is an exciting original that can be played by string orchestra alone, or string orchestra with a slightly more advanced string quartet. The music is spirited and would work well as an opener. Marked majestic and written simply in G major, it would make a nice addition to your next concert.

Flourish

This DVD has an in-depth discussion and demonstration of all aspects of the rhythm section as well as the front-line horns.  Concepts of improvisation and playing as a group, including techniques of listening and interacting as a group, are also covered.  This one packed with information for players and teachers who work with small groups and big bands.

Keyboard Percussion Solo Book & CD with Piano

A lively fiddle tune makes for a fun performance, and it can be even more exciting with the addition of an optional string quartet!  Take four of your more advanced players, or even from the middle school or high school and mix them together.  It's a plain straight-ahead, sawing away fiddle tune in G, and that's just fine.
