String Orchestra - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.873900 Composed by Alison Harbottle. Contemporary. Score and parts. 34 pages. Martini Strings #2961277. Published by Martini Strings (A0.873900). Beware the temptation to begin this piece too fast! The storm in the middle needs space to brew, and everyone needs time to fit in all the retakes. Set in D minor, Rainstorm begins ominously with pizzicato rain drops and a brooding melody. The height of the storm sees the full string orchestra in rhythmic unison yet dense harmonisation, which dissipates quickly and then gradually eases as the last of the storm passes. Chromatic scales are a feature in every part, and 1st & 2nd violins require some 3rd position.Score & parts, 34 pages

This series was born out of a desire to have beginning players participate in worship and play along side more experienced players. These arrangements are written with a melody part in each instrument's clef. The melody part is the same from instrument to instrument with slight variations in register. Along with the melody part is a harmony part or ensemble part. Unlike the melody parts, each ensemble part is unique to that instrument. The piano accompaniment is the glue that holds it all together. This arrangement to be played as a solo with accompaniment, or any combination duet, trio, quartet or quintet with piano accompaniment. By having one or more instruments play the melody part, and then add any other instrument on their ensemble part.     The melody part is overall the easiest or simplest part. The ensemble parts can be a little more techincal. These techniques would include harder string crossings, and some position work.        This scoring flexiblity allows less-experienced players of any stringed instrument to play the melody part, and the more-experienced string players to play their instrument's ensemble part. This allows all levels of string players to play together any combination.         On Jordan's Stormy Banks, the American hymn tune, PROMISED LAND, dates back to the early 1800's. It is originally found in a hymnal that was used in the singing schools that were prevalent throughout the southern United States. This arrangement has a fiddle-tune like flavor and uses some open string double stops in an opening motif, hinting at its roots in the folk song tradition. The melody part is can be played in first position entirely. Your players are sure to have fun with the double-stops, finger slides, sounded glissandos and rhythmic patterns that are sure to have you tapping your toe.

String Orchestra - Digital Download SKU: A0.1031265 Composed by Andrew Tilles. Contemporary. Score and parts. 20 pages. Andrew Tilles #3068659. Published by Andrew Tilles (A0.1031265). Restless Waters is an energetic piece for intermediate string orchestra. A catchy D minor melody inspired by sea shanties makes up the main theme. A slower cantabile section in D major represents the short-lived eye of the storm. This is followed by the return of the main theme, which gets passed around the orchestra to an exciting ending. Every section has an interesting and important part. There isn't a dull moment in Restless Waters. Restless Waters is a great introduction to 3rd position for your 1st violin section. Where 3rd position is used for 1st violins and cellos, there are optional notes written in for differentiated instruction.
