Young Conservatoire String Orchestra Vol.4: Streichorchester

These arrangements were written for string ensembles in primary and secondary schools, music centres, prep schools, and for various ensembles at Charterhouse. They grew out of a need for playable yet musically challenging arrangements, where maximum 'effect' is obtained by using naturally resonant keys and idiomatic bowings - and have been used, and honed, over many years. They also recognise the fact that in many schools Viola players are scarce; most of the easier arrangements are therefore in three parts, with optional Viola and optional double bass.
