Castle’s Half and Half
Composers:
Arrangers:
Detailed Instrumentation: String Orchestra- Webb, Richard
Duration: 4 minutes
Description: This arrangement of Europe and Dabney’s Castle’s Half and Half provides a window into early 20th century society dance music, as informed by the ragtime (or pre-jazz) harmonies of the period. The closely-voiced chords and doubling throughout the work provide opportunities for strengthening ensemble tone and intonation, while the 5/4 meter provides a unique rhythmic/phrasing learning experience.
