Description:
Suo Gan is a traditional Welsh lullaby written by an anonymous composer in the early 1800s and arranged by Richard Meyer. The title (pronounced "see-oh-gan" with "gan" rhyming with "can") simply means "lullaby." This compellingly beautiful melody has been set in a lovely arrangement that is perfect for developing your students' sensitivity and legato playing style. Changes of tempo (ritardandos and a tempos) , changes of key (G major to C major and back) , and a wide variety of slurs that cross strings will challenge orchestras of all levels. A perfect "middle selection" for any concert or contest.
