String Orchestra - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1310636 Composed by Geraldine Green. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Romantic Period. 80 pages. Geraldine (Denny) Green at Oakmountmusic #899627. Published by Geraldine (Denny) Green at Oakmountmusic (A0.1310636). ALL PURCHASES COME WITH SCORE AND PARTSInstrumentation: Treble Recorder Solo, Harp, Violin1, Violin 2, Viola, Cello and Double BassThere is quite a lot of divisi in all of the string parts, so at least 6 players per part is preferable, except double basses where 2 players minimum are needed.Written in 1990, the Concertino For Treble Recorder, Strings And Harp, was requested by recorder player Ruth Whatley. Ruth and I were at the London College of Music together during this time. We worked together to rehearse the piece and eventually it was given a run-through by a group of string players and harpist, Alice Trentham (also at the college with us at the time). It still awaits its premiere! One day I hope I can post up a recording of this beautiful piece.A friend who attended its “play through†described it as being like “the South American Rain Forestsâ€, which I thought was a beautiful, and very fitting description.Duration: Approximately 15 minutesAll of the parts are challenging so this is not a piece for junior players.
