Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. In 2001 Bärenreiter issued a newly engraved keyboard reduction and solo parts to this concerto based on the acclaimed New Bach Edition. The present expanded publication goes a step further in that it offers not only the two solo violin parts as presented in the New Bach Edition, but also two additional parts with fingerings and bowings by the baroque specialist Andrew Manze. Manze also offers players enlightened comments (English/German) on historical performance practices dealing with how the instrument was held, fingerings, bowing, shifting, the use of open strings and much much more./ Répertoire / 2 Violons, Instruments à Cordes et Basse Continue

This mega-hit from recording artist Meghan Trainor features a catchy upbeat melody along with a doo-wop flavor. This solid arrangement for string orchestra gives the bass section some moments to shine. Great fun for all!

Written in memory of the composer's grandfather, a Korean War Veteran, this piece is perfect to program as a tribute to all service men and women. The heroic melodies and harmonies, set in D Major, are shared throughout the ensemble, making it fun for all sections! The violins and cellos stay completely on the D and A strings, while the violas and basses use the G and D strings. This is a wonderful first selection to expose any young ensemble to independent parts among sections and the roles of melody and harmony, all while reinforcing the importance of using the 4th finger. The cello and bass parts have been doubled to create a strong, confident foundation while the viola and violin parts usually share similar rhythms while harmonizing. Fundamental dynamics and bowings will make this piece not only fun to play, but also a success among performers and audiences alike! (1:50) / Orchestre A Cordes

Wonderful for teaching Baroque style and bowing concepts, this piece features limited third position for the violins, cellos, and basses. Violas share in the thematic materials with string basses, mostly sharing the basso continuo line with cellos. This movement from Telemann's Sonata in A for String Quartet has been perfectly set by Robert Sieving. (3:20) / Orchestre A Cordes

for junior string orchestra or two violins and violoncello or violin, viola and violoncello. Par KOCSAR MIKLOS. Kocsár composed the Chaconne for three-part string ensemble in 1996. Originally a popular Baroque musical form, the chaconne is characterized by a set of ground-bass variations. In Kocsár's piece the 23-bar theme is followed by nine variations of diverse characters. The composition lasts about nine minutes and is rounded off with a recapitulation of the theme and a coda. The Chaconne can be performed by junior string orchestras consisting of either two violins and a cello or a violin, a viola, and a cello (with or without double bass), or by string trios consisting of two violins and violoncello or a violin, a viola and a cello. The edition includes a full score and one part for each instrument. If the work is performed by a string orchestra the parts may be copied as required for the number of musicians./ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes

Based on the traditional folk tune used in the 2015 Disney film, Cinderella, this simple arrangement is divided into 3 violin, 3 viola, 3 cello, and 2 double bass parts. It would be ideal for an ensemble of mixed abilities: every instrument can either play the melody, or one of the harmony or bass line parts. Alternatively, students can take turns picking one of the parts and changing lines during rehearsals---or even through the performance, as the 3 parts appear on the page as either A, B, or C. Written in D Major, it is in Rondo form, and explores the use of pizzicato, accidentals, and minor tonalities between the well-known melodic sections. / Orchestre A Cordes
