String Quartet Cello,Double Bass,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1349446 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by BRIAN W. COPPING. Folk,Hanukkah,Jewish,Traditional. 12 pages. EMK Music #934202. Published by EMK Music (A0.1349446). Scored for 2 Violins, Viola and Violoncello, there is an alternative 3rd Violin to replace the Viola as well as an optional Contrabass part so that the piece can be used by a String Orchestra. ‘Hava Nagila’ is an integral part of Jewish culture and it is appropriate that this arrangement would be played in the style and with the inflections of, for example, the 'Klezmer' Clarinet tradition. Although there are lyrics, the tune has gained considerable wider universal popularity as a dance that moves inexorably to an exciting and exhausting climax.
