Aquila

In classic Greek mythology, Aquila (Latin for “eagle”) was a powerful bird that carried the thunderbolts of Zeus, the god of war. This majestic name was also given to a northern constellation that extends across the celestial equator.  Set in B minor, this stately theme is developed first in violins accompanied by a staccato ostinato, alternating with legato slurred patterns. Students will encounter easy dotted quarter rhythms, two-note slurs, and a variety of dynamics in this excellent concert selection.
