Piddlin' [String Orchestra]

Piddlin' is a loose double Rondo in a slightly modal D minor, with contrasting episodes in between the two main themes. The basses start off theme 1 with an ostinato. Violin 1, celli and basses will shift, with carefully marked fingerings to aid less-experienced students. This would make a wonderful review for high school students, because of all the varying rhythmic values. Counting is a must, along with maintaining a steady beat!
