Bartok's Original was created in 1915 as a seven-part piano suite based on his own folk song collections in Transylvania, today Romania. This was followed by another version for small orchestra. Here is a version for youth orchestra with facilitations and changed keys. Some sections were repeated with modified instrumentation to increase the effect. A large number of percussion instruments (3 players) accentuate the rhythmic element and bring further colours of sound into play.

A slow, ostinate striding movement of quarters and eighths determines this movement. Gradually a solemn vocal theme rises, which goes through the different sound registers in a tremendous increase. A lyrical central theme and an impressive double fugue break through this process.
Beginning and end form a harsh C minor chord in the wind instruments.

A new key and slight changes in instrumentation and setting make this symphonic movement playable for your orchestra.

Beethoven composed this cheerful-ironic piece in 1790 during his student years in Bonn and performed it in spring 1791, perhaps as a contribution to the carnival season. The special "thin" instrumentation was extended to a classical measure. Through a new key and other details, an arrangement has been created that is also suitable for an orchestra in composition and offers a lot of playful pleasure.Hörbeispiel - Audio example 1: Marsch - MarchHörbeispiel - Audio example 2: Deutscher Gesang - German SongHörbeispiel - Audio example 3: Jagdlied - Hunting SongHörbeispiel - Audio example 4: Romanze - RomanceHörbeispiel - Audio example 5: Kriegslied - War SongHörbeispiel - Audio example 6: Trinklied - Drinking SongHörbeispiel - Audio example 7: Deutscher Tanz - German DanceHörbeispiel - Audio example 8: Coda - Coda

Although the opus number is higher than that of the violin romance in G major, Beethoven probably already wrote this piece in 1798. The original one-voice solo instrument was supplemented in many ways to form a piano movement. Missing dynamics were applied, the instrumentation slightly expanded. Here, too, there are similar pedagogical intentions as in the Romance op.50 in G major: a quite easily playable piece for your orchestra pianist in the style of the Viennese Classic.Hörbeispiel - Audio example

Beethoven composed the Romance in Gmaj for violine and orchestra in 1808. Usually the part of the solo violin is to difficult for a member of a youth orchestra. But in this version with a relative easy solo piano you give your orchetral pianist the chance to come to the forground. At the same time you allow your orchestra a look into the clear musical structure of the classical epoch.Hörbeispiel - Audio example
