Hotter than a Cajun barbecue, this tour-de-force for the advanced string orchestra is a workout for all of your students (and their conductor!). Conjuring up images of the Deep South, "Swamp Thang" by RIchard Meyer is jazzy rondo that never lets up from start to finish, featuring the most sumptuous syncopations and intriguing instrumentation to hit the student stage in a long time. A great closer or encore number for any concert! (4:00)
