Grade 1
Violinist and composer Soon Hee Newbold offers this delightful work based on the sounds of Russia. You'll be amazed at how interesting this work can sound using note values no smaller than a quarter note. Simple imitation enhances the overall sound and helps students learn to play independently of each other without having to learn a new part. Violin 2 doubles the viola to provide flexible performing options. Exquisite writing for beginning orchestras from one of the country's most respected string composers!

The Reimagine Initiative
(including music for both band and strings)

Originally designed to address the needs of small ensembles with exceptional instrumentation challenges, The Reimagine Initiative has grown into a series that not only offers great, functional music for ensembles of all sizes and instrumentation, but also includes a wealth of additional teaching opportunities that extend beyond performance.

• Adaptable Parts – All musicians have access to ALL parts of every piece. Playable with any combination of instruments!
• Alternate Parts – In addition to adaptable parts, tenor sax and horn have alternate parts putting them in an ideal range.
• Accompaniment – An easy piano part is provided for additional support. When appropriate, chords are included for guitar players.
• Play Along – Downloadable mp3 tracks are included for students to practice with and even use in performance or at home.

• Percussion – In addition to adaptable mallet parts, separate percussion parts are also provided.
• Teaching Opportunities Far Beyond Performance – Let students make choices about orchestration, flip your band so bass voices always have the melody, teach the same musical line to everyone at the same time…. endless possibilities!
