Kabuki Dance: Viola

This original piece features colors and tonalities seldom found in pieces for young orchestras. Written in ABA form, and very simple note-wise, this piece offers outstanding opportunities for improvement in rhythmic reading, dynamics, and pizzicato tone production. This piece was written for the training-level orchestra, but its sophisticated sound will make it appealing to second- and even third-year ensembles. Includes a third violin (viola treble clef) and piano accompaniment part.
