Steal Away Traditional / Arr. Matt Turner

STRING ALTERNATIVES This arrangement of the beloved African-American spiritual offers students the opportunity to experience chromaticism within beautiful moving lines and harmonies. A simple hymn-like texture at the beginning gradually leads to an expedition in bi-tonality, giving this arrangement a contemporary but accessible sound.

Rocksteady Reggae (s/orch score/parts) Matt Turner

StrIng Alternatives Get ready to play in the style made famous by Bob Marley! Fun rhythms, the friendly key of E minor, and a catchy drum groove make this a crowd pleaser. The improvisation section includes a solo for a single player or multiple players, but students can come up with their own.
