This classic Bach fugue is ideal for bands of all sizes and skills, but especially adapted for those with limited instrumentation desiring to challenge their developing musicians. It is also appropriate for very small ensembles, having been carefully crafted by the arranger to work well with as few as five performers. The required independence of parts provides opportunities for developing technical and musical skills while also presenting the option for performance of a masterwork from the Baroque era. The final product will be well worth the effort in developing and enhancing the overall musicianship of your performers. Great music!

Y.M.C.A. ist der größte Hit der vom Produzentenduo Morali und Belolo ins Leben gerufenen Gruppe The Village People. Wie kaum eine andere Band steht diese Formation mit ihren bunten, amerikanischen Klischees reflektierenden Kostümen, für die Discobewegung der siebziger Jahre. Mit Y.M.C.A bringen Sie Ihr Publikum dazu, aufzustehen und mitzufeiern!

Formé en 1977 par deux auteurs et producteurs français (Jacques Morali et Henri Belolo), le groupe Village People se distingue par l'originalité presque politique de son concept artistique qui se voulait dénonciateur et parodique de la non-reconnaissance des minorités. Avec des chansons comme In the Navy, Macho Man et l’incontournable Y.M.C.A., le groupe connaît un succès mondial et devient emblématique de la musique disco.
