Japanese Hoedown by Keiko Yamada. For string orchestra. Carl Fischer Young String Orchestra Series. Grade 2-2.5. Study score (full score). Published by Carl Fischer (CF.YAS112F).
ISBN 9780825889363.
Keiko Yamada combines elements of her Japanese heritage and folk music with the music of the American hoedown, and the result is a party! The main tune is pentatonic, but the background parts are pure hoedown. Japanese Hoedown sounds cool and different, but familiar at the same time. There is even an open section for improvisation that can be played using a D pentatonic scale, and an example solo is provided as well.
