Marked "Heavy Speed Metal", this piece will make your string orchestra feel like the hippest group around!

San Francisco Bay Area string instructor Ted Allen created an intense cello and bass driven rocker that makes the "string metal" genre accessible to younger players in this exciting, edgy work. Launched by the Finnish cello quarted "Apocalyptica" in 1993, and taken up by American groups such as "Judgment Day", "string metal" adapts heavy metal guitar stylings to the bowed strings.
