4 Strings - Explore - Vol.2 (Full Score)
Description
Three progressive collections of contemporary string quartet
repertoire from leading composers to encourage and facilitate the
development of ensemble playing. Compiled and edited by Liz
Partridge, each volume contains graded works commissioned
especially for this series designed for quartets formed of players
of similar ability. Featuring a mixture of musical styles and
genres, each piece contains different elements and techniques to
consolidate and enhance the players' skills as soloists and as
ensemble members.
An accompanying CD provides demonstration recordings of all
included pieces. Minus-one tracks are available to download online
to allow for individual practice between rehearsals.
Many of the quartets have been expanded for optional use as string
orchestra repertoire. Augmented scores and parts are available to
