Knights’ Games, For Children’s String Orchestre PAPP LAJOS

Classique

Description :

Lajos Papp, the author of innumerable popular pedagogical works, this time offers the youngest string players technically really easy little orchestral pieces that can nevertheless be successful concert items for more advanced students. The cycle of eight short pieces can be performed not only as a whole but in any kind of selection or grouping. The title refers both to the medieval knights' tournaments, which always stimulate children's imagination, and also to children's games that imitate them and bring them back to life. The work is based not on a single coherent story but the knights' life in general, with its traditional accoutrements and characters. The titles of thepieces are: Knighting Ceremony in the Castle Chapel - The Lord of the Castle - The Black Knight - The Beautiful Damsel of the Castle, by the Well - Page's Dance - The Scarlet Steed - The Battle of the Noble Knights - Festive Procession.
