The Debut Concert For Strings (Anne Svendsen) for String Orchestra

The Debut Concert for Strings is a collection of eight short pieces composed specifically for your beginner string ensemble. With works graded from easy first finger and pizzicato work through to harder faster-paced pieces, The Debut Concert for Strings incorporate notes, rhythms, and time signatures encountered during your students’ first year of learning. This collection is aimed at students who have the skills to engage in an initial ensemble experience.

The Debut Concert for Strings provides ensembles the opportunity to explore different musical styles. The collection features: unison rhythms, eight bar repeated melodies; two and three part harmony; melody and easy harmony parts (for both violin and viola); unison independent lower string parts; 4/4, 3/4 and 2/4 time signatures, piano introductions and piano accompaniments. Piano parts are optional, however they are strongly recommended to enhance the musicality of both your performance and rehearsal.
