Fanfare and March
Level 0.5 Duration 1.40
This piece for beginning players opens with a majestic fanfare followed by a tuneful march melody. Even at this easy level, Michael has built in enough scoring variety and contrasts to keep every member of the band interested and engaged.
Inspired by late 19th and early 20th century dance pieces, this energetic and spirited work uses only six notes yet sounds like so much more! The notes and rhythms will fall into place quickly so you and your beginning students can focus on a variety of dynamics and articulations. The optional accelerando at the end adds excitement as the piece comes to an energetic conclusion. (1:20)
