PERFORMANCE NOTES:
Play with sensitivity and allow parts to "talk" to one another as the melody develops. If you are looking for an advancing piece for your ensemble this is a very good choice. Allow the opening statement room to settle with the a rit. in bar 7-8 before launching into a steady pace from bar 9. The simple rhythms often found in Violin 3, Cello and Double bass are important to create forward movement in the work - ensure that players observe rests and play accurately.
MEMORIES is often recommended as a bridging piece between Level 2 and 3 of the Moxon Music String Ensemble catalog because the technical aspects are not demanding however there is more maturity needed in expression and overall tone of the group.
