About this item
Listen closely and you'll hear them coming . . . it's the Cello Squadron to the rescue! This fun and exciting section feature has it all—roaring airplane engines (on cello C strings of course!), "dive-bombing" glissandos, and a heroic main theme based on Wagner's famous Ride of the Valkyries. Designed to give everyone in the orchestra a chance to learn and practice their triplet rhythms, this piece is sure to spark the imagination of all of your students.
