About This Collection
Description
Highland and Etling's string orchestra collection spans nearly 2,000 titles across all ability levels, from Grade 0.5 through Grade 4.5. Richard Meyer's Dragonhunter and Night Shift are perennial favorites, alongside Mark Williams's Fiddles on Fire and Yukiko Nishimura's Orchid. You'll find masterwork arrangements, folk pieces, light concert fare, and programmatic works suitable for contest prep, concert performance, or classroom reading.
Highlights
Teachers keep coming back to Richard Meyer's Dragonhunter and Night Shift, which dominate this catalog's top sellers. Mark Williams's Fiddles on Fire and Yukiko Nishimura's Orchid round out the most widely adopted titles. The collection leans heavily toward contest and festival material (over 1,450 titles carry that designation), with strong representation in Grade 2 and Grade 3 difficulty.
Recently added
Recent additions include Alpine Adventure by Michael Hopkins, Waterfalls by Kathryn Griesinger, and Midnight Vortex by Caryn Wiegand Neidhold, all published in June 2026. You'll also find new arrangements of masterworks like Brahms's Little Academic Festival and Tchaikovsky's Mother Ginger.
Composer Spotlight
Richard Meyer taught string students for 35 years in public schools and directed the orchestras at Oak Avenue Intermediate School in California, growing the program from 29 to 200 students. He brings that classroom experience directly into his compositions; Dragonhunter stands as his most popular work in this collection.
Bob Phillips is an innovator in string education known for his work in large group pedagogy and eclectic arranging styles. His Sound Innovations series (all six levels) has shaped how thousands of string students learn, and his prolific output as author and composer continues to influence string programs nationwide.
Doug Spata came to orchestral writing through his background as a clarinet teacher, but his career as an orchestra instructor shifted his focus to string composition. His award-winning music has earned performances across the U.S. and internationally, and Gargoyles remains a teacher favorite in this collection.
Andrew H. Dabczynski is Emeritus Professor of Music Education at Brigham Young University, where he founded the BYU New Horizons Orchestra as both a student ensemble and a lab for string teacher training. His work bridges adult and student instruction, reflecting decades of experience in higher education and public school settings.
