RONDO MODERATO is written for a beginning string orchestra where students have 2-3 years of playing experience. I chose to write this piece in a three part harmony so if you are lacking instrumentation this will certainly benefit you and allow your group to sound fuller…the 2nd violin and viola are doubled as are the violincello and contrabass. There can be as little as one player per part or placing numerous players on each part will produce a bigger and fuller sound. Even advanced players will find these pieces fun to play. Complete with full score and parts. Music does not have to be difficult to sound good. If you are looking for something playable and full sounding you found it in this string orchestra series for young players composed by a retired music teacher who actually worked with young players. These compositions contain flowing melodies with unique harmonies, easy key signatures and have generated great audience appeal. Counterpoint is also incorporated into many of the compositions. Bow markings are indicated. Enjoy these pieces along with your students and audience.

If this composition appeals to you please consider others in this string series by typing VINCENT VITALE in the search bar located on the home page. I thank you very much for your consideration and wish you and your students much musical success. …Copyright 2019...

It's New Year's Eve, the big ball drops in Times Square, lovers kiss, and everyone joins in for a heartfelt chorus of Auld Lang Syne.  Here's a truly unexpected 
treat - a lush, flowing arrangement for middle school orchestra with all the emotion and feeling of this famously wistful tune.  Written by Scott Robert Burns over two centuries ago, and still relevant, Auld Lang Syne looks back with longing, and sometimes regret, at our memories.  The unanticipated insertion of church bells toward the end adds just the right touch of melancholy.  Don't look for any dry eyes in your audience when this one concludes!
Intermediate level, perfect for Middle/High School String Orchestra.
