Description
This collection of 2,204 Grade 2 orchestra pieces spans masterworks, light concert music, folk arrangements, and novelty pieces that work well for developing ensembles. Teachers rely on titles like From the Start by Laufey, Force of Nature by Brian Balmages, and Voyager by Soon Hee Newbold as standards for this level. You'll find pieces suited for contest, festival, and concert performance, with strong representation in the Highland/Etling String Orchestra and FJH Developing Strings series.
Highlights
From the Start by Laufey and Force of Nature by Brian Balmages are the titles teachers keep coming back to year after year. Voyager by Soon Hee Newbold and the Tchaikovsky Swan Lake arrangement also move consistently. These pieces balance musicality with technical accessibility, making them reliable choices for building ensemble cohesion at Grade 2.
Recently added
Recent additions include The Great Reindeer Race by Tyler S. Grant, A Hundred Horizons by Brian Balmages, Critical Mission by Adrian B. Sims, and arrangements of classical works like IN THE MOORLAND by Cécile Chaminade and WATERFALLS by Kathryn Griesinger.
Composer Spotlight
Richard Meyer brings 35 years of string teaching experience to a catalog of 160 titles, including Terra Nova, which teachers favor for its musical substance and pedagogical balance. He grew the orchestra program at Oak Avenue Intermediate School from 29 to 200 students and shaped the city's elementary string curriculum, giving his arrangements the practical wisdom of large-group teaching.
Carrie Lane Gruselle holds degrees in music education and Suzuki pedagogy from the University of Wisconsin system and currently teaches elementary and middle strings in the Appleton Area School District. Her 109 titles include The Rite of Spring, a popular choice at this level, and reflect her training in both traditional and Suzuki methodologies.
Bob Phillips is recognized as an innovator in string education and large-group pedagogy, with over 25 book series to his name, including all six levels of Sound Innovations. His 108 pieces in this collection benefit from his decades developing eclectic styles for student ensembles and are performed by thousands of young musicians annually.
Bob Cerulli studied at the Curtis Institute and brings professional orchestra experience as principal bassist with several symphonies. His 93 titles for this level combine technical craft with an understanding of what engages student musicians, as evidenced by the popularity of his orchestral arrangements like The Lord of the Rings.
