RIVER SONG FOR STRING ORCHESTRA SO3 SC/PTS

River Song, by Richard Meyer, is an excellent way for your students to develop their legato playing. The original folk-like melody is gently passed from section to section (even the Basses are featured!), giving the piece the feel of a slow journey of discovery down a sleepy, isolated waterway. The piece includes some simple shifting into upper positions for violin 1, cello, and bass and interesting and imaginative accompaniments throughout. Perfect as a second piece for your next festival or contest program and a wonderful change-of-mood selection for any concert. (3:20)
