Rhyme Time for Strings (Loreta Fin) for String Orchestra

Three well-known nursery rhymes are arranged in Loreta Fin's Rhyme Time for Strings, using almost "every trick in the string playing book," such as pizzicato, slurs, staccato, tenuto, glissandi, harmonics, Bartok or snap pizzicato, col legno, trills, left hand pizzicato, playing behind the bridge, knocking, and stomping. The concept is to introduce young string players to these fun techniques, all while feeling the beat, counting the rhythms, and, of course, following the conductor. (3:40)
