Orkes Gesek

Orkestra gesek adalah orkestra yang hanya terdiri dari bagian gesek yang terdiri dari senar busur yang digunakan dalam musik Klasik Barat. Instrumen orkestra semacam itu paling sering adalah sebagai berikut: biola, yang dibagi menjadi pemain biola pertama dan kedua (masing-masing biasanya memainkan bagian yang berbeda), viola, selo, dan umumnya, tetapi tidak selalu, kontrabas .

Orkestra gesek dapat berupa orkestra ruang dengan ukuran yang berkisar antara 12 (4 biola pertama, 3 biola kedua, 2 viola, 2 selo dan 1 bas = 12) dan 21 musisi (6 biola pertama, 5 biola kedua, 4 viola, 4 selo dan 2 kontrabas = 21) terkadang tampil tanpa konduktor . Bisa juga terdiri dari seluruh bagian gesek dari orkestra simfoni besar yang dapat memiliki 60 musisi (16 biola pertama, 14 biola kedua, 12 viola, 10 selo dan 8 kontrabas = 60; Gurre-Lieder menyerukan 84: 20.20.16.16 .12). ^[1]

Repertoarnya mencakup beberapa karya Mozart (termasuk Eine kleine Nachtmusik ), William Boyce (delapan simfoninya hanya untuk string), dan Haydn yang membuang basso continuo barok . Beberapa dari karya ini bermasalah ketika memutuskan apakah karya tersebut untuk orkestra atau kuartet gesek . Khususnya dalam karya-karya awal Haydn, dikatakan bahwa inversi harmoni dari persilangan garis bass dan viola yang sesekali terjadi menyiratkan adanya double bass; namun pertanyaannya belum terselesaikan.

Karya-karya penting abad ke-20 telah ditulis untuk orkestra string oleh Bartók ( Divertimento for String Orchestra ), Stravinsky ( Apollo ), Witold Lutosławski ( Musique funèbre ), Benjamin Britten ( Simple Symphony and Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge ), Charles Wuorinen ( Grand Bamboula ), dan Malcolm Williamson ( Simfoni No.7 ). Sir Michael Tippett menulis Konserto untuk Double String Orchestra dan Ralph Vaughan Williams menulis Partita untuk Double String Orchestra . Komposer yang telah menulis Serenade untuk orkestra string termasuk Tchaikovsky, Dvořák, Suk dan Elgar . Mendelssohn, di masa mudanya, juga menulis tiga belas simfoni untuk orkestra gesek .

Kadang-kadang karya yang aslinya ditulis untuk kuartet gesek, kwintet, sextet, dll. diaransemen untuk orkestra gesek. Adagio for Strings karya Samuel Barber, 3 Pieces dari Lyric Suite karya Alban Berg, sextet string Arnold Schoenberg Verklärte Nacht dan String Quartet No. 2, sextet Souvenir de Florence karya Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, String Kedua karya John Corigliano Andante Festivo karya Quartet dan Jean Sibelius adalah contohnya. Bagian timpani opsional juga ditambahkan pada karya Sibelius. Karya Shaker Loops yang ditulis pada tahun 1978 untuk septet kemudian diaransemen pada tahun 1983 untuk orkestra gesek oleh komposer Amerika John Adams telah menjadi tambahan repertoar yang populer belakangan ini. Graham Waterhouse menyusun beberapa karya untuk orkestra gesek ( Sinfonietta ), juga dikombinasikan dengan suara kontras seperti Great Highland Bagpipe ( Chieftain's Salute ).
