BALLOON RIDE FOR STRING ORCHESTRA SO2 SC/PTS

Ragtime-style syncopations in this very catchy string work suggest the feel of breezily floating over a pleasant landscape in a hot air balloon. Accenting and adding playful elements to the joyful ride are changing meters (3/4-4/4) and an optional snare drum/wood block part.

This joyful musical ride is a great way for younger players to experience syncopation and musical imagery.
