The Phantoms Dance

This bold score in 6/8 time is exciting and fun to play. The cellos open the piece with a simple blues style progression that forms the basis of the score. The energy builds throughout the piece with clever attention to bowing and dynamics. This work has a fresh sound that makes for a great contrast to classical pieces.

Teaching Notes

Confident players will have no trouble bringing this dramatic piece to life. First violins play briefly in 3rd position with the option of remaining in first position if not comfortable with position work. The cellos drive the score and all instruments have interesting parts that require attention to bowing to ensure an overall crisp clear sound. The work sounds powerful and is impressive on stage - a very worthwhile score for any group at this level.
