Program Notes

“Christmas Charades” is a delightful holiday concert piece designed especially for beginning String players. The composition employs only the first six notes of the D major scale, and the most challenging rhythm featured is two repeated eighth notes. This piece is crafted to impress the audience with an array of Christmas carols these young musicians can perform so early in their musical journey.
