Strings
| Chamber string music has been composed for hundreds of years and Eighth Note Publications is responding to the demand for new music by collecting several works from a variety of Canadian composers. The Suzuki String method is gaining in popularity all over the world and new music is desired for those students. In the catalogue there are pieces for quartets, quintets and string orchestra. |

DIVERTIMENTO by D. Coakley   RONDO by J. Smallman

RONDO
by Jeff Smallman
| Catalogue Number: S961 | $10.00 |
As a student attending the University of Western Ontario, Jeff Smallman
composed the Rondo for string quartet as an orchestration
assignment. Rather than arranging an existing piece, Mr. Smallman decided
to compose his own. The harmonies are traditionally classical and the form
is also traditional, being in the rondo form: ABACA. Each statement of the
A section, however, is treated slightly differently while still being
obviously A. This was Mr. Smallman's first composition for strings but
certainly not his last. Another string piece by Jeff Smallman that is
available through Eighth Note Publications is his String Quintet.
