String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.809047 Composed by Edward Elgar. Arranged by Kim Diehnelt. Romantic Period. 51 pages. Kim Diehnelt #2079069. Published by Kim Diehnelt (A0.809047). Movement 5 from Edward Elgar’s Sea Pictures, Op. 37. Arranged for voice and string quartet.Duration: 6 minutes. 2016. This string quartet version strives to bring out the full color and texture of the original full-orchestra version. Each instrument part includes a small clued staff above showing the vocal line and lyrics. This makes rehearsal and performances much easier to coordinate without a conductor. Where there is an instrument name noted, this refers to the original instrumental line the player is playing. The term loco means that the player returns to playing a string part. For advanced players as the work makes full use of each instrument, uses double stops and extended ranges, etc. I hope this smaller ensemble will allow singers to perform the work more often and bring this beautiful work to a larger audience.
