BATTALIA for Strings by Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber (1644-1704) written in 1673 is edited by Joel Blahník. An excursion into sound effects with “Bartok snap bass” and paper over the Contrabass strings to imitate the snare effect of Drums. Perhaps Biber’s most “inventive” work! A popular University of Wisconsin String Workshop classic for years. It has been on the WSMA class A list and recorded many times. Incredibly imaginative! String Orchestra. Set of Score and Parts. Grade: 5 Duration: 9:30
