Author Description

Just add... strings! This uncomplicated work is designed to teach very elementary concepts of bowing, pizzicato, lifted bows, and dynamics. It uses eight basic rhythms in common time. The use of rhythmic unison means that all parts can be taught quickly and simultaneously, making this piece ideally suited to a concert that occurs very early in the term or in a period of time where there may be interrupted weeks at school. Short and sweet, it goes for exactly---two minutes!
