Product Description
Marriage Waltz - Representative of a piece in Mixolydian for the With Flats Or Sharps Key Signature Series of Cello Choir À La Mode, Marriage Waltz is gentle and joyful, written as a celebration of a 40th Wedding Anniversary. In 3/2 and E Mixolydian (3 sharps), and reflective of the rest of the series, Marriage Waltz is a three-part piece for cello trio to cello choir. The Cello 3 part is written entirely in bass clef on the C and G strings. No extensions, shifting, or use of second finger are required in the Cello 3 part. With help to read the meter, the Cello 3 part could be played by late Suzuki Volume 1 or above level cellists. The Cello 1 and 2 parts are written entirely in bass clef, requiring use of extensions and shifting up through fourth position. Both the Cello 1 and 2 parts get the opportunity to play some natural harmonics, notated as diamond shape notes to denote the location of the harmonic, rather than the pitch. Both the Cello 1 and 2 parts are recommended for Suzuki Volume 3 or above level cellists.
This second series, the With Flats Or Sharps Key Signature Series of Cello Choir À La Mode, is designed for the intermediate, advancing Cello Choir, and is generally more advanced than the No Flats Or Sharps Key Signature Series. Similar to the No Sharps or Flats Key Signature Series, most pieces offer cellists of varying levels the opportunity to play together.
