Here is an arrangement based around Mozart's Country Dance K.535. Great fun for a young string orchestra. I have to say, I think that this is a very cheeky piece.

An arrangement of the last movement of Mozart's Divertimento No.8 K.213. Mozart composed five divertimenti for 2 Oboes, 2 Horns in F, 2 Bassoons between 1775 and 1777. They had been composed to accompany meals of Prince Archbishop of Salzburg in his castle at Mirabell.
This arrangement captures the style of the piece while making it accessible to young string players.

This Berceuse is the eight of twelve miniatures Op. 20 by the Russian composer Cui. These piano pieces have been arranged for many different instruments. Cui himself orchestrated six of them, including the Berceuse in 1882. Here is a beautiful arrangement for violin and piano.

I've just had the pleasure of taking over a very good violin pupil the other day. She is 13 years old, very bright and in to tech.
I try to get pupils to record their practice and email it to me once a week so I can have a look at what they are up to. It’s not really a check-up but a way of helping them to keep a “playing journal”.
Using their phones they will have to send me a small clip of a scale, a bowing exercise, a phrase or a complete performance. Having spoken to my pupils, (most of them) like the fact that I’m interested to see that they are working during the week and that I take the time to reply – just a short sentence with a pointer or two. It’s not too time-consuming.
Buxtehude composed three ostinato works: the ciaconas in C minor (BuxWV 159) and E minor (BuxWV 160) and the passacaglia in D minor (BuxWV 161). Johann Sebastian Bach's older brother Johann Christoph preserved all three of these works in a single manuscript, known as the "Andreas Bach Buch," Originating in in Spain at the beginning of the seventeenth century, both the ciacons and passacaglia’s soon appeared in a wide variety of Italian instrumental and vocal music. I've not bowed this edition as I felt that most people would do something different! I always find a clear score better to mark…
The famous Galop from Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld always goes down well in a concert. This version simplifies the end of the overture while still managing to keep the sparkle of the original. I've left the percussion parts in but it could be performed without them.
The opera The Abduction from the Seraglio was a huge success from it's very first performance. The first two performances in fact brought in the large sum of 1200 florins. This arrangement just uses the last section of the overture. The added percussion parts gives the piece its Turkish flavour.
An arrangement of Beethoven's famous Ode to Joy from his Symphony No.9 Op.125. I've tried to use as much of the original orchestration as possible in this arrangements. The bowings have been kept too but I think I would be tempted to change them to give younger plays more bow!
