Excerpts From The Firebird Suite
Since I'm not in a real concert band, I might not be as culturally refined as is needed for a review for a piece such as this, but in my opinion, EXCERPTS FROM THE FRIEBIRD SUITE was a very challenging piece, and this makes it an extremely desirable one. I was and still am a trombone player and I STILL find this hard at any speed over 110 BPM, so to all you trombonists out there at my current level, be wary of measures 43 to 63. Other than that, and the $60.00 price, this is absolutely, without a doubt, one of the coolest pieces I have ever played in my life. While it is better with 3+ musicians, this is a great work of art by itself. I am very happy to have played this, and you will be too. I am sorry this took so long to read.
