String Orchestra - Level 2 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.1080129

By The Chainsmokers. By Andrew Taggart, Emily Schwartz, and Scott Harris. Arranged by Matt Arnett. Pop. Score and parts. 19 pages. Matt Arnett Music #684341. Published by Matt Arnett Music (A0.1080129).

This song works shockingly well for orchestra - and everyone gets something fun to play. I did this arrangement with 2nd year students in mind. The piece is really good for focusing on low 2's in the violin and viola, dotted quarter AND triplet rhythms for everyone, and rests on beat 1. The rhythms are almost always true to the original - listen to it with your students to help them feel the tricky spots. You need a strong bass laying down the harmonic foundation throughout for this to work, cello is not doubling. There are usually three independent rhythmic parts going on, which presents a fun challenge and makes the layers of the piece fun and interesting. The piece also utilizes some fun techniques including stomping on the floor (sounds awesome on stage!) and knocking on the back of the instrument. There is an optional cut to remove the bridge if the piece is too much/too long for your group. This piece is a blast to play and I hope your students enjoy it!

This blast to the past will motivate, captivate, and elevate your students with old school '60s soul sound, an infectious, danceable rhythm, and a triumphant finish. Written in 12/8, the tune begins with a ballad-like introduction for solo cello and then moves around the sections. Each instrument has a chance to improvise or solo in the written-out solo section. Authentic sounding riffs, complete with grace notes and a shout chorus, add to the fun of compound meter rock. A sure audience pleaser and a terrific end to a concert or first half! (1:10).

Composed by Thomas Oboe Lee. 20th Century,Baroque,Classical,Contemporary,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 38 pages. Thomas Oboe Lee #432015. Published by Thomas Oboe Lee (A0.869398).

Instrumentation: Violins 1a. Violins 1b. Violins 2a. Violins 2b. Viola. Cello. Double bass.

Program note.
I go to Rome every year during my winter break from teaching. My favorite statue in the Galleria Borghese is Bernini's Apollo and Daphne. It is amazingly alive and beautiful. When the Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra of Boston asked me to write a work for string orchestra, I immediately thought of the fabulous Apollon Musagète by Stravinsky. Wouldn't it be fun to write a companion piece to the Stravinsky and call it Daphne? And since the Stravinsky Apollo is a ballet, my Daphne would be one as well, although an imaginary one.

Daphne is in three sections.

1. Moderato ... Apollo struts around at a party, flirting with the nymphs and then suddenly he notices Daphne. He falls in love immediately.
2. Fuga ... Unnerved by Apollo's attention, Daphne flees. Apollo chases after her.
3. Largo ... Apollo catches up to Daphne and declares his love for her. She struggled to free herself from him and calls for help. To save Daphne from Apollo, her father Ladon, the river god, transforms Daphne into a laurel tree.

String Orchestra - Level 4 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.521585

Composed by Camille Saint Saëns. Arranged by Sherry Lewis. Holiday,Opera,Romantic Period,Wedding. Score and Parts. 33 pages. Sherry Lewis Publishing #6222013. Published by Sherry Lewis Publishing (A0.521585).

My Heart At Thy Sweet Voice, String Orchestra (String Quintet), Advanced Intermediate Level for 1st and 2nd violins, viola, cello, string bass

Score: 18 pages

parts: 12 page

time: 5'40

ABOUT THE DEMO....I took a big cut to get to the better-known tune but the actual arrangement is complete from beginning to end.

I used the original score and true to form. Such a beautiful piece. Really comes off great in strings. 

MY QUARTET VERSIONS, in short notice usually work fine for solo, two parts and three parts 

however I also offer individual versions for one, two and three parts that are more detailed for these ensembles.

Please visit  https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/search?Ntt=sherry+lewis+publishing for all of the titles I offer.

If you can’t find a title then contact me through stringquartet@hotmail.com and I’ll give you the link back to Sheet Music Plus’s listing.

VERSATILE Titles that include four parts are written with the idea that they can be performed with 1, 2, 3 or 4 musicians. Most of the contemporary/popular titles include a chord chart for a bass instrument.

PRACTICE needs would vary according to the level of the performers but my goal is to be sight-readable for most performers and groups. 

AUDIO SAMPLE The 30 second mp3 is frequently shortened and may not start at the introduction to get to the reprise. The actual introduction will be in the sheet music.

LISTENABILITY I have performed thousands of weddings and special events. I make it a goal for the music to carry as well as possible through loud and large space situations. 

ARRANGEMENTS usually follow the original version. There is an mp3 where you can hear 30 seconds and get a feeling of the originality of the work.

EXCELLENT for corporate events, weddings, social gatherings and recitals.

APPROPRIATE for students and schools.

CHURCH REPERTOIRE I’m always adding more titles.

Thank you for your purchase!
