| Description: Give your students a well-needed break from the chaos and noise of today's world with this gentle, introspective, hymn-like composition. Richard Meyer's A Quiet Peace uses suspensions, dissonances, and ninth and seventh chords, which lend a mature sound to the piece. The notes and ranges keep it well within reach of the young orchestra. An excellent way for your students to express sensitivity and grace while developing their emotive playing skills. |
