After the success of Dance Starters, a follow-up in the Flexible 4 Series was a must. Again, Peter Kleine Schaars composed four dances, in which he, by means of refreshing chords, uncomplicated rhythms and simple melody lines, takes youthful musicians to The Dance Club. There, they learn the cha-cha-cha, the rumba, disco dancing and an actual Oriental belly dance. Great fun for everyone. Na het succes van Dance Starters kon een vervolg hierop niet uitblijven. Opnieuw componeerde Peter Kleine Schaars een viertal dansen, waarin hij met frisse akkoorden, ongecompliceerde ritmes en eenvoudige melodielijnen de jeugdigemuzikanten meeneemt naar The Dance Club. Daar leren ze de chachacha, de rumba, discodansen en een heuse oosterse buikdans. De thema’s en begeleidingen zijn weer gelijkwaardig verdeeld over de vier stemmen, zodat aluw muzikanten een echte uitdaging vinden in het studeren en spelen van The Dance Club.In vier Tänzen führt Peter Kleine Schaars - mittels erfrischender Akkorde, unkomplizierter Rhythmen und einfacher Melodielinien - junge Musiker in den Dance Club. Dort lernen sie Cha-Cha-Cha, Rumba, Discotanzen und einen echten orientalischen Bauchtanz. Da die Themen und Begleitungen gleichmäßig auf alle vier Stimmen verteilt sind, teilen sich auch alle Spaß und Herausforderung! Après le succès de Dance Starters, la réalisation d’une nouvelle œuvre dans la collection Flexible 4 Series s’imposait comme une évidence. Voici The Dance Club (“Le club de danse”), une suite de quatre danses ( quatre voix) aux accords rafraîchissants, aux rythmes sans fioritures et aux mélodies simples. Vos jeunes musiciens interpréteront un cha-cha-cha, une rumba, un air disco et une danse du ventre orientale. Dansons !

Originally written for string quartet, this fantastic characteristic piece from Glazunov is a welcome addition to the string orchestra repertoire, as arranged by Deborah Baker Monday. Well-suited for the more advanced ensemble, it contains excellent musical opportunities and the chance to play the music of a prominent Russian composer. Deborah's setting stays very true to the original, but enhances it for use by the full ensemble. Alert your contest/festival music committee to this worthy new piece for high school string orchestras.Alexander Glazunov (1865–1936) lived during a very transitional period of Russian music history, active as a composer, conductor, and teacher. He was a part of the Romantic school of Russian music following in the tradition of Tchaikovsky, like his fellow composers Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov.During his years at the conservatory he instructed many students who chose to pursue the modern trends set forth by Debussy. Stravinsky, Shostakovich, and even Prokofiev took instruction from Glazunov. Although they considered him old-fashioned, he was remembered as a stabilizing influence during transitional times.Glazunov’s music stayed within the category of Russian Romanticsm: nationalistic with classical formality. His list of works includes numerous symphonies, concertos, piano and vocal works, and chamber works including seven string quartets.Op. 15 was first given the title “Suite” (a collection of dances), and after a friend’s recommendation he changed the name to “Novelettes”. The five movements are of contrasting style, but beautifully reminiscent of their particular themes:I. Alla SpagnuolaII. OrientaleIII. Interludium in modo anticoIV. ValseV. All’ UnghereseThis movement is very well adaptable for string orchestra. The original string quartet moodis light, using harmonics and pizzicato, but there are forceful sections which allow for strong sectional playing (especially with the cello and bass orchestral sound). There is very much interesting melodic material offered for all instruments which lends itself to a fantastic string orchestra arrangement. Conductors will find material in all sections which provide greatopportunities for rehearsal.The form is a large ABA with a D.C. al fine, but the sections are not square by any means.There is lots of energy and momentum in the material of both sections, as well as a modalcharacter which gives the music an exotic sound. Bowing patterns abound in all sections formore great teaching opportunities.

Rikudim (Hebrew for 'Dances') is a four-part dance suite based on Jewish music. By using eastern intervals and irregular time changes, the composer succeeds in creating a slightly melancholy but specifically Jewish flavoured piece.Rikudim (Hebrew for “Dances”) is a four-part dance suite based on Jewish music. By using eastern intervals and irregular time changes, the composer succeeds in creating a slightly melancholy but specifically Jewish flavoured piece. Die vierteilige Suite Rikudim (hebräisch für 'Tanzen') besteht aus von der jüdischen Musik inspirierten Tänzen. Durch den Gebrauch von orientalisch anmutenden Tonintervallen und unregelmäßigen Taktarten ist es dem Komponistengelungen, in dieser Musik einerseits einen Hauch Melancholie, andererseits spezifisch jüdische Elemente miteinander zu verschmelzen. Die deutlich bestimmten Themen und die bisweilen sehr überraschenden und natürlichen Harmonien bewirken, dass diesestilisierten Volkstänze ihre Botschaft sehr direkt vermitteln.Rikudim (de l'hébreu rikud, 'danse') est une suite de quatre danses originales inspirées de la musique traditionnelle juive. L'utilisation d'une structure tonale orientale, l'introduction de mesuresirréguliéres et la richesse sonore de l'orchestration apportent cette œuvre une teinte mélancolique mais surtout une grande authenticité. Les thémes trés inspirés sont clairement différenciés. L'harmonisationquelquefois surprenante sans jamais être dénaturée confére ces quatre danses originales juives une grande richesse d'expression.Rikudim (ebraico di “balli”) è una danza in quattro parti, ricca di cambi di tempo irregolari e intervalli melodici tipici delle tradizioni orientali. Malinconica e affascinante, ha in sé tutto l’incanto della musica popolare ebraica.
