Dory’s Waltz   Audio

This original piece is a true grade 1. It’s in G major and includes melodic phrases for all sections of the orchestra. Dory’s Waltz will be a welcome addition to elementary and middle school orchestra libraries with its charming and graceful melody.

Bonjour!   Audio

Crossing Pirates’ Cove   Audio
by Deborah B. Monday

First year players will love Crossing Pirates’ Cove. Filled with excitement and drama, students will enjoy creating a story to match the music they play.

Dabbling in the Dew   Audio
by Shirl Jae Atwell
SO207C • Grade • 11/2 • $38
Ms. Atwell has incorporated her signature sounds and styles, but at the elementary level. Even the most inexperienced orchestras will sound full and mature with this terrific piece, based on an old English folksong.

Puppet Music   Audio
by Mozart arr. Jeffrey Bishop
SO208C • Grade • 11/2 • $38
The arranger has chosen this distinctive, yet lesser-known Mozart rondo to reinforce spiccato. Definitely a composition oriented for performance. Puppet Music will also help to instill ensemble precision and rhythmic stability.
