Suite for Strings is a set of short pieces commissioned by the Harllee Middle School String Orchestra. "First Run" is an energetic movement filled with 16th notes and rapid bowing.  "Bradenton Waltz" demonstrates a more leisurely approach to string writing.  "Portable Rhythms" involves snaps, taps, and vocal effects recurring through the music.  This piece is perfect for middle school orchestras.
