Folk Dance is a lively, fun and easy piece to play by either a string quartet or string orchestra. It has been thoroughly 'road tested' by an amateur workshop group of 25 players (typically UK grade 3-6, with very positive feedback). Folk Dance works well for not only teaching/instruction but also as a short (2 minute) repertoire or encore piece. The opening section features a rhythmic quasi-Eastern European motif, and there is a contrasting middle theme in which the strings imitate rustic bagpipes. There are solos for violas and violins.
