Built from primitive sounding rhythms and modal harmonies, this intriguing work opens with an ominous introduction that leads into the first statement of the main theme. Educational opportunities abound in this energetic piece, including some easy two-part counterpoint between the 1st violins and 2nd violins/viola. Primitivo, which is correlated to Orchestra Expressions Book 1, or to most first year method books, is certain to capture the imaginations of students and audiences alike! (2:10).

UPC: 038081394268. English. Bulgarian Folk Dance.
Bulgarian folk music is noted for irregular rhythms, but not in this arrangement. The rhythms are straightforward but the phrases fall in groups of three measures rather than four. Easy double and triple stops make the instruments ring. This simple and happy tune provides the basis for contrast and variation. Correlated to Orchestra Expressions, Book 2.
