LudwigMasters Publications Beating the Rapids (From Buffalo River Suite) - Woodruff - Full Orchestra - Gr. 4
Additional Photos:
Composer: Bud Woodruff
Format: Score and Parts
Instrumentation: Full Orchestra
Level: 4
A spirited, almost fiddle-like tune begins our journey down the river, with cascading 8th notes in each section. The drama builds with a modulation to D, with figures representing the white-water rush. The G major section returns, leading to another modulation to C and a beautiful viola solo, backed by the other principal strings. The entire orchestra plays the more romantic and restful theme with our successful trip down the river to camp. This adaptation by the composer adds winds and percussion to the original for string orchestra but is otherwise musically identical.
