Bolero for Strings. Percussion sheet music. Beginning.

Original

Bolero for Strings composed by Ronald Follas. Arranged by Elliot Del Borgo. For String Orchestra & Snare Drum. Violin I, Violin II, Viola, Cello, Bass, Snare Drum. String Music. Grade 1.5. Score only. Duration 2. 30. Published by C. Alan Publications. CN.16731. A great way to introduce your beginning ensemble to the "Bolero" style, this original work features a legato melody over a steady ostinato pattern that can be enhanced with optional snare drum. Well within the capabilities of your student players. Bolero for Strings is reminiscent of the Spanish bolero, although in 4. 4 time. With a rhythmic pattern stated by the entire ensemble, it continues throughout the piece while a single melody changes texture and timbre. All the violins have the melody first, then first violins with cellos at the sixth, and, finally, a key change with violins and violas in harmony in thirds moving towards a climax building from open G strings to a G major chord. Accessible to second year players, Bolero for Strings will provide a nice contrast in any concert program.
