WINDFALL should be taken at a steady march tempo, with full note values and is a useful piece for developing a good band sound. Dynamic changes are particularly important to avoid monotony in the over...

SPACEWALTZ gives young bands the chance to learn waltz style and too wooden an approach should be avoided by achieving the right amount of stress on the first beat of each bar (bass drum beware!).

WHIRLWIND is a flute solo and (despite the title!) it will be found that a steady waltz tempo works best. Obviously, it is important that the accompaniment remains delicate and that dynamics are adher...

Ten pieces for the beginner Flute player. Flute & Piano.

MELTING THE ICE is a lilting solo for the young alto saxophone player. While not taxing technically, it will require good breath control to achieve a nice flow in the solo part. Although it has a slow...

Here is an opportunity for the trumpets to go through their paces! The syncopated nature of the tune may be unfamiliar to many young players, but once the sound is in their heads there shouldn't be a...

CAPTAIN HORNBLOWER is a lively solo for the young trumpet player and is modelled on the 18th century 'trumpet tune' with its major and minor sections. As is the case with all solos, the balance betwee...

OPENIN' TIME is a good introduction to syncopation for the young player and the various rhythms employed could be used as part of the preliminary exercise. The oboe solo can be played by divided flute...

PROCESSIONAL OVERTURE provides a good opportunity for developing a healthy band tone in both soft and loud dynamics and introduces the concepts of 'DS al Coda'. .

STARBOUND is a strong, driving piece and relies on good rhythmic playing from the bass instruments. It is a good introduction to playing triplets for all sections of the band and this could be introdu...

TOTALLY TROPICAL! is in bright Caribbean mood and will benefit from good, rhythmic playing. Flutes, oboes, clarinets and trumpets all have to play the little chromatic figure that starts the main tune...

YO, BRO! has a Latin feel about it which requires good rhythmic playing with a strong beat supplied by the percussion.

This piece reflects the style of Elizabethan dance music. The opening tempo should be quite steady, though played with energy. Good balance is required to achieve the contrasts. The change of tempo sh...
