Carl Fischer Music #YAS245F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS245F). ISBN 9781491165379. UPC: 680160924288. Key: E minor.This courageous and forceful melody uses frequent doubling of sections to add strength and volume to the developing string orchestra. Fearless legends are heard in the determined theme, punctuated with heavy staccato accompaniments, meant to be played marcato style on the string. Set in E minor, the piece allows cello players to explore extended F# finger patterns as upper strings get to practice a few high-3 sharp accidentals. The character of the piece is found in the rising and falling dynamics that depict the inevitable defeats, but also glory of victory of battle. After a brief respite in a lyrical middle section, the steady march returns in the low strings, bringing the ensemble back to a triumphant conclusion.
