After performing at many educational conferences like the TMEA and NYSSMA conferences, the creators of BARRAGE had many requests for printed, published versions of their music. Many young string players sent letters and e-mails asking that BARRAGE do something to help bring the cool element to their school string program. In response, SWATH Publishing is pleased to be able to offer this exciting string orchestra arrangement of the BARRAGE favorite Calypso Jam. Composed by Dean Marshall (Artistic Director of BARRAGE) and arranged by Arthur Bachmann (violist The Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra), this piece is a guaranteed crowd pleaser for any school orchestra concert! Appropriate for the intermediate to advanced string orchestra. Includes 8 violin 1, 8 violin 2, 10 violin 3/viola, 5 cello, 5 bass, 1 piano, 1 drumset and 1 conductors score. *BARRAGE is an internationally acclaimed violin ensemble that presents the violin in a unique and innovative way. BARRAGE combines diverse musical styles with dazzling choreography to produce a show that is truly spellbinding!
