Original

The Pleiades for String Orchestra - Score composed by Sue Roberts. String orchestra. Grade 3.5. Conductor's score. Published by Latham Music Enterprises. LA.SO173SC. ISBN 978-1-63361-143-6. The Pleiades are the seven daughters of Titan Atlas and Pleione in Greek mythology. They are turned into doves escaping to the sky, whirling and swirling to form the part of the constellation Taurus. This story inspired the 7. 8 time signature and consistent rhythmic patterns that dominate this piece. The gentle swirling continues as the cellos take over the melody. The notes are not particularly difficult, but the rhythms may need some attention in rehearsal.
