Description
This lively, virtuosic arrangement is filled with fun string instrument “tricks” like harmonics, pizzicato, and rolling arpeggios across the strings. The busy accompanimental figures are based on repetitive, blocked chord patterns that create a motor-like foundation for the other players. Listen for bell-related musical quotations of Paganini’s “La Campanella” and Westminster Chimes!
Commissioned for 7 City Strings studio in Queen Creek, AZ and premiered December 2022.
