The Haunted Carousel by Soon Hee Newbold - Score and Sound

Grade 2.5
Truly imaginative! The melancholy yet alluring melody conjures images of an old carousel that is cursed or haunted by spirits. From the eerie harmonies of the opening to the more spirited melodies that follow, this work takes listeners on a rollercoaster of emotions as they experience the many moods of the haunted carousel. Pedagogically, the work introduces high 3 fingerings and accidentals. Sure to be a concert favorite!
The iconic symbol and popular favorite ride at fairs and theme parks is the carousel. Complete with carnival music and horses or other animals that "gallop" up and down, the carousel possibly dates as far back as 500 A.D. and was used first for training

one of my fav pieces - played it in 7th grade orchestra & I can still play it from memory to this day ♡

[@Ronenlasanya]

Playing this for a concert peice, really easy. If anyones playing this use the easiness for your benefit. Focus on vibrato, intonation, counting, and really using bow speed, bow direction and putting your heart in it.

[@DTPS15]

Did they have the piano accompaniment too?

[@adworqble]

Lovef this song sm!! As a bass i love how we still get including instead of just being the beat, fav part us for sure at 0:31 when the basses come in strong!

[@FakeChildProdigy]

As a harpist that plays lever harp, this is extremely hard because of the accidentals.

[@NothingToWorrySlime]

It’s easy

[@JohnMcDusty]

I’m a harpist that will be playing this song next year, thanks for getting me nervous because I suck at lever changes in pieces 😂

1:36… the most satisfying shit for a violin 🥹❤️

[@Beeeee3eee]

Lol this was really easy for our orchestra, especially playing the cello part, but it was pretty fun! Perfect for our spooky themed fall concert
