The arranger has taken the first two movements of the "Cello Sonata in E minor" by the Italian Baroque, composer Marcello, and crafted them into a beautiful, very playable setting for full string orchestra. Young string players will enjoy the full-sounding minor key harmonies and the running sixteenth-note passages of the second movement.

Authentic Baroque literature, this carefully edited work is accessible to many young orchestras and a fine choice for concert or festival use.
