First Finger Rock  

Brian Balmages
Grade 0.5

This driving and exciting rock-inspired tune will shock directors when they realize it only uses open strings and first finger in all instruments! Written with only quarter notes throughout, this is an ideal piece to either introduce students to the bow or to new strings. Complete with a bridge and short coda section, the piece includes an optional (and simple) drum set part. Real music using only open strings and first finger!
