Three Buccaneers

Description

Feature every section of your orchestra in this swashbuckling piece! Three distinct “pirate” themes are given to the violins, violas, and cellos/basses to allow all players a chance to shine. All seafaring melodies stay in first position with minimal low-two finger patterns and lots of doubling for a big, full sound. Each section takes an adventurous turn into new tonalities before joining forces at the end for a triumphant finale!
