Product Description

This is a medley of three moods from Big Sky Country for string quartet. The first part evokes the sound of tuning up the band for the hoedown. The second part paints a picture of an amazing Big Sky sunset viewed from the back porch. The last part is the dance itself. All three join together to form a picture of the amazing beauty of the Montana way of life and the scenery that draws people back over and over again or encourages them to stay forever. https://youtu.be/PQ_jjseW0rw

The third part contains complicated metrical devices and the first and last parts require whatever fiddle-like emphasis and technique the performers can add. Bowings are just suggestions.
