Viola - Intermediate - SKU: M0.31154EB Technique. E-book. 33 pages. Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music #31154EB. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music (M0.31154EB). ISBN 9781513473901. 8.75X11.76 inches.Practicing scales is essential to building and maintaining strength, technique, tone, and agility on the viola, but it is easy to slip into the habit of playing scales automatically, without paying attention to tonality or sound production. The 29 single-page studies in this book focus the attention of violists on the beauty of sound, with a particular concern for the way different keys resonate on the viola.The first 24 studies address all minor and relative major keys and proceed through the circle of fifths; the last 5 pieces are individually conceived, i.e., apart from the circle of fifths. No metronome indications are given, so the etudes can be played at individually comfortable tempos.The names of the etudes refer to various animals that have scales, including insects, fish, birds, reptiles, and a few species of mammals. The author hopes that in addition to experiencing more enjoyable scale practice, students will be inspired to learn more about these amazing creatures and write scale studies of their own.

Viola Solo - Level 3 - SKU: A0.784339 Composed by Joshua Hauser. Instructional. Individual part. 38 pages. Slide Ride #5288683. Published by Slide Ride (A0.784339). 1 Octave Scale Studies in 15+ keys for 4-part ensembles of like or mixed instruments If this is your first exposure to these scale studies, you are in for a treat! Donuts, if you make a mistake!The initial incarnation of these studies were written for trombone quartet and we would play them in the Tennessee Tech Trombone Choir with the challenge that whomever made the first mistake had to buy donuts for the rest of the ensemble. Since then I have brought that version to several clinics and warm up sessions. One time before I got to explain the title, a fellow trombone professor said, Oh, I get it! Don’t step in the holes!I only wish I had thought of that myself... Since we have one of the best donut shops in TN here in Cookeville, treating the studio to sugar coated goodies was always my intent.As with those initial exercises, you can vary these as much as you’d like.· Choose a tempo.· Choose a dynamic.· Choose an articulation/style.One way I like to play these is to have one person be the model, playing the entire scale over and over while everyone else plays the fragmented versions. That helps everyone to keep on track and stay in time. Double or triple up the parts for ensemble cohesion with a larger group.Practice one key, gradually speeding it up to improve fluidity, or choose a variation and take it through all keys, playing version A, B, C, or D then skipping to play the same set in a new key.If you want an additional challenge, play them in different octaves or change the key. Play the F Major set in f minor (all forms), different modes, etc. Players really have to be on their toes to remember if they are playing melodic minor in the ascending or descending form! For jazz players, try swinging them in dorian or mixolydian modes.The variations are endless!If you are using these with transposing instruments, 1) is F Major in Concert Pitch, 2) is Bb Major in Concert pitch, and so on. When you reach a scale that is enharmonic for another key (Db/C#, Gb/F#, or Cb/B), they are presented in both keys for each instrument so Trumpets can play in Eb while the Flutes are playing in C# with similar examples for all keys.All Donut Etudes with the same volume number are compatible so you can play them in mixed quartets or large ensembles with one or more instruments/people on part 1 and a different instrument on part 2, etc. Since the quartets are all identical, conductors/coaches can use any of the scores to tell which part should be playing at what time. Once you have played a scale with one set of parts, everyone can rotate to a different part and play the same scales again!Enjoy!

Viola Solo - Level 5 - SKU: A0.1010650 Composed by Rhett Jaramillo. Concert,Contemporary. Individual part. 7 pages. Rhett Jaramillo #1925889. Published by Rhett Jaramillo (A0.1010650). This work explores free performance and extended technique in the first movement, titled Fog. It takes advantages of many different sounds and colors that the viola can produce. The second movement is a repetitive and serene movement, titled Meditation. The third movement, titled Supersonic, surges on after opening with an intense pizzicato on all four strings. Hailed by David Conte as rewarding for players and audiences, The City Muses On is a great addition to any recital as an exciting and impressive addition to the repertoire. Other works by Rhett Jaramillo can be found at his website, http://rjaramillomusic.wix.com/rjaramillo. He also has other works which can be accessed at his Soundcloud, https://soundcloud.com/rhett-jaramillo. Rhett Jaramillo is a composer from Temecula, CA and based out of the San Francisco Bay Area. His musical interests span far and wide from classical to classic rock, from world music to jazz, from musical theater to EDM. He began playing the piano at the age of 15 and his interest in musical performance and composition began. He graduated from Brigham Young University - Idaho in Rexburg, Idaho with a Bachelor of Musical Arts in Music Composition in 2014. He studied Composition with Darrell Brown, Piano with Stephen Thomas, and Conducting with Dallin Hansen. He currently attends the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where he is receiving his Master of Music in Music Composition. He currently studies Composition with Elinor Armer. His music explores the extent to which tonality can be stretched and feature playful, artistic score layouts that result in a free-flowing form, often relying on the performer to interpret the result of the musical ideas. If you are interested in purchasing any works for performance, he can be contacted at r.jaramillomusic@gmail.com.

Viola Solo - Level 4 - SKU: A0.1018917 Composed by Benjamin Harry Sajo. 20th Century,Contemporary. Individual part. 4 pages. Benjamin Sajo #6064793. Published by Benjamin Sajo (A0.1018917). Programme Notes: It is said that the darkest hour of the night comes just before the dawn. – Thomas Fuller Mornings are powerful and evocative moments. The chorus of birds, one species after another, unite in a wild and genuine polyphony while the dew and mist evaporate upon the rising of the sun, encouraging goosebumps and shivers from an open window, tempered or exhilarated by a cup of coffee. Have you ever actively witnessed the sun’s sultry and intense ascension from the cradle of the horizon? That is what this piece, Aubade, or Dawn Song, is about. An aubade is the twin of a night-time serenade; an aubade is a love song originating amongst the medieval Provençal troubadours, depicting the morning departure between two lovers. An aubade is a song in honor of the slow cosmic percolation of a late summer morning. On a personal level, the composer is reminded of his own experiences camping in Northern Canada as a young man–a simpler and less demanding time. This piece formally begins the series I composed during the Covid-19 quarantine conditions of 2020, to serve as potential contemporary preludes for each of Ludwig van Beethoven’s nine symphonies–his two hundred and fiftieth anniversary was this year!–though they can all stand on their own on any program. The connection, in this case, is with his first symphony; I envisioned, once my piece concludes, his beautiful drawn-out chords presenting themselves–the dawn of his special genius.About the Composer: Benjamin Sajo (b. 1988) is a Canadian composer of contemporary classical music, as well as an educator. Since developing a fiercely independent creative voice upon the completion of his studies at Western (2010) and McGill Universities (2013), he continues to find inspiration from the intersection of mythology, art, and nature upon the contemporary human experience. In 2019, he released his premiere album of original music, The Great War Sextet: Canadian War Poetry with Trombone & Strings, with support from the Ontario Arts Council. He is a member of SOCAN and the League of Canadian Composers.
