Donahoe, Erica: Cyclone

Experience a whirlwind of sound and fury in D minor! This accessible and exciting work for developing string orchestra journeys through the stormy minor key, reinforcing low 2 finger patterns and easy slurs, while avoiding low 1 B-flat finger patterns. Accents and staccato articulations add to the chaos of the tempestuous theme that passes from section to section, with plenty of unison rhythms for a strong sound. Brace yourself for the twister!
