| Description: 'Bonny Portmore' is a grade 2 piece, all first position, in the key of G. It is a lyrical tune which offers students the opportunity to play in an expressive and legato style. The melody appears in all parts except bass, but the bass part is very important and kept active.The arrangement has appealing harmonies for students and motivates them to focus on tone and good bowing technique. They will not grow tired of this piece as you encourage them to play with deep feeling and expression. It is quite lovely and will be enjoyable to students, teachers, and audiences. |
