La Caprice De Nannette from Petite Suite De Concert

“La Caprice de Nannette”, originally written for orchestra by British composer Samuel Coleridge‑Taylor, shines brilliantly in this sparkling string arrangement. Its explosive opening and ending make it an ideal concert starter, and it offers another vibrant addition to your repertoire of works by Black composers. Shifting is required for first violin, cello, and bass, with easy double‑stops in all but the bass. Late‑Romantic harmonies, extended melodic lines for second violin and viola, and playful hemiolas give students plenty of musical color and fun challenges to explore.
