Unfortunately "Holiday for Strings" requires a substantial wind section. When the strings go arco the winds have buttons. Perhaps those chords could be done pizz. but I think the effect would be greatly diminished. In the middle section there is even a very exposed English Horn solo! I think it would take a fair amount of (unaurthorized) rescoring to make it work. A few years back I tried to do it with piano and strings but that, too, proved ineffective.

I'd love to borrown the David Rose parts if it can be played by string orchestra. It's gone rental-only, I think.
