Concert Band - Sheet Music

Grade 2

SKU: CL.011-3386-01

Composed by Earl. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR333). Extra full score. Composed 2004. Duration 3 minutes, 43 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-3386-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-3386-01).

A lively and energetic overture by a talented new writer that is perfect for younger bands. Just a little bit on the easy side of grade 2, the second clarinets stay under the break throughout and the ranges of all instruments very reasonable and provide a strong solid sound. The very musical legato section features two short solos for trumpet. Excellent material for building confidence in young players. Don't miss this one!
