Dragonhunter

By Richard Meyer
Item: 00-20797
Series: Highland/Etling String Explorer
Category: String Orchestra
Format: Conductor Score & Parts
Level: 1
Using only the notes of the D major scale, Richard Meyer has fashioned a medieval-sounding piece that is sure to fascinate your beginning string students. The minor key, modal harmonies and driving rhythms give this piece a very mature sound. The aggressive main theme is introduced by violins and violas, with cello and bass in counterpoint. The theme later returns in canon, with cellos and basses being chased (hunted) by the violins and violas. Very dramatic from start to finish! (2:51) This title is available in SmartMusic.
