SKU: A0.1008342

Composed by Sue Moore. Children,Instructional,Standards. Score and parts. 10 pages. Susie Moore #4766683. Published by Susie Moore (A0.1008342).

An instructional Chamber Orchestra work written for beginning strings and early intermediate winds. This work is in 6/4 time. The string parts (depicting the bubbles that are seen as the Platypus are submerged) have been written where they are either using the open strings or the patterns are repeated over several bars so that beginning students are able to focus on the challenges of the 6/4 time. Mapping which beat each string part falls on is helpful when starting to teach this piece. Platypus are shy in nature and do not normally cohabit in the same location in large numbers. This piece was written as the composer observed an unusually large number of Platypus in one location. The wind parts depict the Platypus as they surfaced and descended in the billabong where they lived and as they happened to meet another Platypus or come up where she was sitting they quickly retreated with a loud splash. This is heard throughout the piece.  Parts are available.
