‘Anything For You’ is a fun piece for string orchestra, full of vibrancy and forward propulsion. It is a jovial invitation to dance, and will work well in lighter programmes and as a really effective ‘encore’ piece. It is suitable for orchestras of varying sizes, although ideally the string sections should be of at least 6-6-4-4-2 player numbers to convey the intensity, and to appreciate fully the more humorous effects. Amongst the things to specially point out in this well-crafted piece are the bass-line ostinatos, the frequent moto perpetuo inner lines, pop/jazz melodies on top, the percussive effects from the violas, and brief references to the opera ‘Carmen’ and even to flamenco … It has been one of the most successful lighter classical pieces of Johnstone, having been played frequently since its first performance in 2001.
The sub-title or alternative tirle ‘Viaje en el topo’ refers to the small coastal train that connects San Sebastian to the French border – indeed the piece has a constant ‘busy rush-hour feel’ that well resembles a daily train journey. The work is dedicated to the Basque National Orchestra in San Sebastian and their manager German Ormazabal for their help and interest in the ‘Swinging Strings’ project.
