Bolero by Maurice Ravel (1875-1937). Arranged by Jay Bocook. MusicWorks Grade 4. Grade 4. Score and parts. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.4002123).

This well-known Ravel classic is a study in orchestration as it gradually builds intensity from the quiet opening to the powerful and explosive finish.

Excellent version of a beloved classic

Very true to the original this version proved challenging to the players without being frustratingly difficult (was played by community concert band). Gives all instruments a chance to take a piece of the spotlight. Only piece we played that drew cheers from the audience. Highly recommended!
