The majesty of this geographic landmark is evident in Gibraltar: The Rock by Victor López. Fabled in Greek lore to be one of the two pillars of Hercules, the bold music presented provides a fitting representation. Written with plenty of tutti and unison sections throughout, this impressive work for beginning strings will provide young ensembles the opportunity to display characteristics of musical maturity. Stepwise melodic lines, driving background rhythms, as well as bowing and fingering markings make this energetic piece easier to learn and teach. Duration: 2.00
