Symphonic Band

Fidelity March

Listen Fidelity March especially for style!  How does your part fit in.  Practice with it both playing and fingering along!

Dancing Kites

This piece shouldn’t be hard to play, but it is very hard to tune and balance.  Make sure your notes are perfect!

Impact

The tough one!  Listen to this TONS!  Every day to hear how your part fits in.  Practice counting your part out loud so you can get how it fits into the whole piece!

 

Concert Band

Portrait of a Clown

Really listen to what your part sounds like!  Practice singing your part along with the recording.  NOTE THAT THIS IS A YOUTUBE RECORDING.  I RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT LOOK AT THE COMMENTS…I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER CONTENT IN THE COMMENTS SECTION.

Brother James Air

Listen to how your part fits in.  Play along with this one a LOT!

Creed

The hard one!  Make sure you pay attention to the rhythms on this.  They can be tricky.  Listen to how the parts work together so when we rehearse, we can get it exactly right!

 

Beginning Band

Air of Nobility

Practice along with this!  It is pretty easy, so get really picky on articulations!

Clouds

This song is pretty cool!  Listen to how the parts work together.  NOTE THAT THIS IS A YOUTUBE RECORDING.  I RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT LOOK AT THE COMMENTS…I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER CONTENT IN THE COMMENTS SECTION.

Prehistoric Suite

Work on all four parts.  Make sure you know how the rhythms go.  They can be tricky!
