Description
Frost on the Plow is an energetic composition perfect for introducing some fiddlin’ fun to your classroom. A relentless pace and syncopated bass accompaniment depict a stormy winter season, melting into spring. Written in the style of traditional fiddle-tunes, players will encounter authentic fiddle techniques such as shuffle-bowing, chops, and double-stops at a brisk tempo. Each section is given interesting melodic and accompaniment lines, with exciting accented rhythms that require all players to match bow placement, internalize a common tempo, and listen across the ensemble for a precise, focused sound.
