Description:
Written in a friendly D major, Daybreak, by Daniel Keeler, begins lyrical and tranquil, like the dawning of a new day. Throughout the opening, the focus can be on larger group phrasing and dynamic contrast. Moving on to an upbeat, articulate, and jovial section, focus moves to hooked bowings and rhythmic triplets that span all strings and give cellos and violas more time on the C string. Sections throughout provide moments of part independence. This is a great piece to practice multiple musical styles, bowings, dynamic contrast, and overall ensemble. (3:10)
