styles and periods. All arrangements correlate with Strictly Strings, 

our popular string method, but may also be used in conjunction with 

other instructional methods. Each arrangement includes an optional 

piano accompaniment and a Violin III (Viola, treble clef) part.

each selection is carefully graded and edited to provide the maximum 

educational and musical benefit to your students. Each work is 

chosen for its musicality, uniqueness and appropriateness to the 

developmental level of students. From well-crafted arrangements of 

symphonic masterworks to exciting original compositions, this series 

provides a wealth of musical materials for the school orchestra. 

string AlternAtives | Grade 1–3½

performance music by providing authentic-sounding compositions 

and arrangements of the very best repertoire in fiddling, jazz, 

mariachi, Latin, rock and world music. Each piece in the series presents

less-than-full instrumentation, these orchestrations sound like the 

original by retaining the integrity of the composer’s original intent.

the full orchestra. A variety of musical styles is represented, with an

The jazzy melodies and bouncy style will 

make this piece an audience favorite, 

but directors will appreciate the oftenoverlooked 

skills that the piece teaches. 

Throughout this selection, beginning 

string players switch from “bow hand” to 

“pizzicato hand,” making the orchestra

variations including a G Minor section, a 

slow section in which to develop vibrato, 

and a rollicking finale provide a multitude 

of teaching opportunities. (4:30) 


eAr-igAmi, Grade 2 


(00-31592) F $55.00 

Ear-igami is a fascinating 

musical tribute to the ancient 

Japanese art of paper folding. Instead 

of a bow, each performer uses a piece 

of paper to make sounds and “play” 

their instrument. Your audience will be 

entranced as they watch and hear the 

variety of effects possible in this 

charming set of pentatonic variations. 

Premiered by the composer’s middle

Bagpipes are sometimes suggested in

Spiritual, arr. Carrie Lane Gruselle 

(00-31594) F $47.00 

This African-American spiritual expresses 

the difficulty of the lives of those who 

would have been singing it, and yet, 

embedded in its intensity is a call for 

strength and perseverance. Freedom 

will come but we must hold on. Both 

struggle and hope are represented in 

this arrangement by variations in scoring, 

beginning with the cello and bass in their 

lower register and ending with the violins 

in third position, and by fluctuating 

dynamics and varying articulations. (2:30)

Winner of the 2008 

Merle J. Isaac 

Composition Contest, Senior Division,

underneath the violin melody. (2:45)

melody in this original composition for

the lovely melody and harmony. The writing 

also features extended contrabass notes for 

those orchestras having such instruments. 

There is a very subtle change from D major 

to B-flat major and back to D major in the

This lively march comes to us from one 

of Holst’s most popular works, the First 

Suite in E flat for Military Band written in 

1909. Two contrasting themes—a crisp, 

marcato in D and a lyrical, legato theme in 

G—thrill listeners. The powerful finale of 

the march, back in D, uses both melodies 

layered on top of one another. The lyrical 

section features the cellos and violas and 

all parts are interesting. (2:45)

by Shirl Jae Atwell 

(00-31602) F $47.00 

“Mercurius” is a medieval Latin noun used 

to describe messengers, of which the 

Roman god Mercury is most famous. The 

forward motion of Mercurius is a constant 

in the bass part while the melody floats

smooth flowing manner. The harmony is 

realized in conjunction with the rhythmic 

pattern of the bass to convey the purpose 

of this “bearer of news.” (3:15)

lines of the original oboe and horn parts.

dense harmonies on a deceptively 

simple melody. Suggested solos over 

changes are written out for solo players 

or sections. Chords are provided over a 

walking bass line, making it possible to 

add instruments to the optional rhythm 

section. A drumset part is included (4:15)

bossA Azul, Grade 3 

by Bert Ligon 

(00-31622) F $55.00 

A great change of pace and the perfect 

level for your intermediate group! 

Bossa Azul (uh-ZOOL = blue) sounds like 

sitting in the tropical shade with a cool 

Caribbean breeze. Melodic material 

appears in all parts and is designed for 

fun and successful performances. An 

improvisation section is included where 

soloists can improvise using D or G 

major scales, or play from the provided 

suggested solos. Fully notated piano, bass 

and drums are included. (4:00) 


Fourth dimension, Grade 3 

by Randy Sabien 

(00-31623) F $47.00 

As heard on the composer’s recordings, 

this eerie jazz tune will challenge and 

thrill the players! Based on a twelve-bar 

blues progression with a twist, each 

section takes a solo. Solos are written 

out or may be improvised. Encourage 

the players to use special effects, as in 

another dimension. It’s okay for a variety 

of sounds to emerge! (3:35) 


tcheFuncte shuFFle, Grade 3½ 

by Tim Aucoin 

(00-31616) F $55.00 

Feel the relaxed energy of a hot afternoon 

while the gators bask on the banks of 

the Tchefuncte River in Louisiana! This 

swingin’ feel-good jazz shuffle features 

a catchy melody over a Blues in G with 

a middle section reminiscent of Count 

Basie taking it home. Written out solos for 

violin, viola and cello are included with 

backgrounds for all sections. (3:50) 


don’t get Around much 

Anymore, Grade 3½ 

by Duke Ellington and Bob Russell, 

arr. Robert Gardner 

(00-31621) F $60.00 

Big band jazz translates very well for 

strings and this cool arrangement stays 

true to the style of the original. Most 

sections share the melody, with the 

others playing the famous call-andresponse 

accompaniment, and all but 

the cellos remain in first position. Two 

solos are written out for each instrument, 

with chord changes and back-up parts 

provided to allow students to create their 

own solos, encouraging improvisation. 

This will make an upbeat and distinctive 

addition to any concert program. (4:55) 




First philhArmonic 


rAdetzky mArch, Grade 2 

by Johann Strauss, Sr., arr. Richard Meyer 

(00-31611) F $57.00 

A perfect setting of this festive piece! Get 

the audience involved and carry on the 

great tradition of clapping and stomping 

along with the music. Just right for the 

early full orchestra experience. (3:00) 


pAstorAl symphony 

(First Movement), Grade 2½ 

by Ludwig van Beethoven, arr. Richard Meyer 

(00-31612) F $57.00 

Carefully arranged with the young 

orchestra in mind, this version retains all 

of the charm and color of Beethoven’s 

original. Students will develop their lyrical 

playing skills while learning to “listen 

for the tune” as it moves from section 

to section. A wonderful way to develop 

proper balance in a symphonic setting, 

and a great introduction to music that 

invokes moods and pictures. (5:20)

grAnde processionAl For An 

AcAdemic occAsion, Grade 3 

by Alexandre Guilmant, arr. Rick England 

(00-31613) F $67.00 

Are you looking for a big, bombastic 

opener or closer for your next symphony 

orchestra concert? Do you need a 

contrasting piece to a delicate Debussy 

impression and want to stay “French”? 

Are you too pooped to “Pomp”? This 

composition, in a bold march style with 

a short fugal exposition in the middle, 

will work for you. Your students will enjoy 

the opportunity for their sections to 

shine and your audience will remember 

the energetic build to the final climactic 

chords. (5:30) 


lAke dAnce, Grade 3½ 

by William G. Harbinson 

(00-31615) F $67.00 

Recurring themes within contrasting 

sections, ranging from the majestic to a 

spirited dance, will delight audiences and 

players alike. Mixed meters, asymmetrical 

meters and the playful development 

of previous motives characterize the 

development section, leading into a 

rousing finale. Great contemporary 

composition! (6:02) 


selections From americaN 

Suite, Grade 4 

by Antonín Dvořák, arr. Brendan McBrien 

(00-31614) $72.00 

A musical postcard to the world! Your 

audiences will be thrilled with this early 

piece of Americana, and your musicians 

will love the colors and energy of this 

uniquely American music as imagined 

by the great Czech master following his 

visit to America in the 1890s. This work 

contains music inspired by African- 

American, Native-American and Scottish 

music and features three movements (I, IV 

and V) of Dvorák’s original five-movement 

suite. (7:00)

Appreciation 

music literacy for upper elementary, 

curriculum 

middle school & high school 

by Daniel Anker, Carol Ponder & Donna Santman • Preface by Eric Booth 

Acclaimed by audiences and critics alike, Music From the Inside Out is a cinematic 

exploration of the magic and mystery of music through the stories, passion, and 

artistry of the 105 musicians of The Philadelphia Orchestra. Bring the excitement 

of the film into the classroom through a newly developed curriculum that 

engages students in reading, writing, listening and talking about all kinds of 

music and offers students the opportunity to compose their own works. The 

curriculum is intended for grades four and up and is constructed so that each 

lesson may be used individually or as part of the complete curriculum. The 

accompanying CD includes a wonderful selection of music examples for the 

classroom. The full-length movie as well as a special supplemental teaching DVD 

that includes excerpts not shown in the theatrical release are available.
