DANCE OF THE TOY FLUTES

(from The Nutcracker Ballet)

v
R

This charming dance from Tchaikovsky’s best-loved

ballet is a great way to introduce your young orchestra
e

to staccato bow style and simple accidentals (C , D 

e

and B ). All new concepts are clearly marked, making

this a super teaching piece and a great selection for
lU
r

your next holiday concert.
