About this arrangement

Orchestra Piano Solo (opt.), String Orchestra (8-8-5-5-5 in set) SKU: AP.36-A908190 Composed by Leroy Anderson. Performance Music Ensemble; String Orchestra. Anderson Classics. 20th Century. Score and Part(s). LudwigMasters Publications #36-A908190. Published by LudwigMasters Publications (AP.36-A908190). UPC: 660355007668. English.Like many of his works, Leroy Anderson (1908-1975) wrote Fiddle-Faddle on a commission from Arthur Fiedler of the Boston Pops Orchestra in 1947. Originally written for string orchestra, the title of the work came first, and the music followed. Fiddle-Faddle was conceived as similar to Paganini's Moto Perpetuo, except in a modern style. Very much a violin feature, this string orchestra version was followed the next year by a transcription for full orchestra. An American Pops classic in its original scoring, this work is part of the Anderson Classics Series by E.F. Kalmus. A count of 8-8-5-5-5 strings, along with an optional piano part, is included in the set. These products are currently being prepared by a new publisher.
