This delightful Serenade in D (K. 100/62a) was completed in 1769, when Mozart was a mere 13 years of age (and this is an ideal fact to share with students)! The first movement, even though composed at such a young age, provides challenges for every musician in the ensemble and is musically appealing to players and audience. This would be an outstanding addition at any point in a program but works particularly well as a concert closer!

A new edition of one of Berkeley's most frequently performed works, in this the composer's centenary year. This work is a classic in the repertoire of British Music for this medium. The first movement has the sparkling elegance of Mozart whom Berkeley idolised, but also the driving rhythm of a Bach Brandenburg Concerto; the second is a serenade; the third a kind of scherzo; but the final movement seems to reflect the tragic war years with a slow reminiscence of the opening theme at the very end. A critical commentary by Berkeley expert, Peter Dickinson, is provided.

The folk-like tune of Ruby Mountain Serenade may seem familiar but is in fact an original tune from composer John Atteberry. Beginning in D major, this graceful tone poems opens intimately, with optional soloists from each section. Following the introduction, all sections of the orchestra work to guide the music through statements of the primary and secondary themes, leading to a smooth modulation to F major and an emotional climax. A great opportunity for young musicians to explore programmatic music. (3:00).

This powerful example of Russian national influences on 19th-century string writing opens with a short, quiet Andante before the brisk Allegro (quarter note = 138) takes over, where a light feeling of momentum should prevail. An intensely exciting, fast-paced conclusion is guaranteed to bring audiences to their feet. Duration 3:30.
