Give your students the opportunity of playing a piece for beginning strings that is upbeat and full of excitement! *Violento*, is an original beginning strings composition by veteran composer Victor López. This exciting work is a forceful and rhythmically driven composition that sounds more difficult than written. A mixture of the danzón---Cuba's unique genre of song and dance---and basic rhythmic interplay give this piece a unique touch. The inclusive, simple, and repetitious rhythmic patterns will certainly make an energetic statement at your next concert. (1:50)
