(Advanced and Optional Elementary Strings)
The legend of Excalibur is sure to fire the imaginations of young minds. The opening creates a sense of mystery and foreboding as King Arthur’s sword, Excalibur, rises from the waters. A sword dance follows and one can just picture the clash of weapons and armour. The mysterious theme returns scintillatingly before the piece concludes with a thrilling finale. Written for advanced and elementary players, this work would be a fabulous conclusion to a string festival. It may also be played effectively by just the advanced orchestra.
