Music for String Orchestra - Grade 3-4
One of opera's most famous scenes is now available in this skilled adaption for strings, with the powerful tribal dance scene from Samson and Delila. After opening with an evocative violin solo, the tension-filled movement accelerates to a brilliant finish, depicting the drama surrounding Samson's destruction of the temple and his enemies.

playing this in orchestra at like 1.25x speed and my orchestra teacher’s absolutely insane wish me luck fellow orchestral musicians ☠️

[@menacemaguire335]

How was it?

[@elaineongod3029]

not possible

[@SlightlyUnwell]

1.25 speed is the speed that sounds best to me, but idk. I feel like every string arrangement of this piece is leaving something about the original out.

[@SenseiBready]

1.25 of this recording’s tempo is normal tempo 😅

this way its nicely relaxed (the beginning)

[@canalbandashow]

Yes, this way its nicely relaxed

[@devindingdong2072]

TheAwkardTurtle aka-NatNguyen i think it's suppose to be slower because it's hard to play faster. With all the shifting on the a string it's hard. If u even play the violin. My friend was in the advanced orchestra in middle school and practically 80% of the orchestra left to do other things. They were amazing tho, but most left because they gave up and couldn't handle it.

[@YouKnowWho.i]

Playing this for my eight graduation concert 😭 it’s rlly smth….

[@lemonfizz2897]

Playing this in orchestra except ours goes up to measure 384. Fun but holy crap

I'd make some comments, but then I realized that this written for Grade 3-4, so I know that it's supposed to be simplified.

[@WillCMay]

Astralliie I did Suzuki up to book 5 and then did solo pieces selected by my teacher. To play this well ("well" being a key word) I'd say you've got to be passed book 5 for sure.
