Publisher's Synopsis
(Southern Music Orchestra). After a brief introduction the violas introduce the first melodic theme then pass it to the first violins in octaves as "This Land Is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie, Level 4 arrangement by Ethan Epple develops. Epple sets the Americana stage in "This Land Is Your Land" through staccato, shifting to 5th position, creating a broad pitch range, pizzicato, syncopation and a key change moving seamlessly from D Major to G Major, while each instrument carries the melody and counter melody. Ethan Epple's version of This Land Is Your Land must be in your library for recruitment, Veterans Day, Flag Day, the Fourth of July, or just because "This Land Is Your Land" creatively rounds out your next concert.
