Arr. Jacob De Haan. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Even the most basic understanding of Western music must include an intimate familiarity with the magnificent body of works by J. S. Bach. The charming beauty of the ARIOSO from BWV 156 must almost certainly appear on anyone?s personal list of the world's most beautiful melodies. What a wonderful vehicle for the study of artful phrasing and expression! Don't let the Grade 2 designation make you overlook this exquisite rendition for bands that normally play at grades 4, 5, and 6. Musicians at any level of ability will find great rewards here. As the perfect festival centerpiece or as a lovely introspective moment on any concert, Jacob de Haan's touching arrangement of Bach'sincomparable ARIOSO, speaking its own inherent and spiritual truth, is sure to find a permanent home in your concert band library. / Niveau : 2 / Musique pour célébration / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par HANNICKEL MIKE. Let your young band ROCK with BACH! The “Musette” from the “Anna Magdalena Notebook” forms the basis of this light-hearted mis-treatment of the original rocker, J. S. Bach. The limited rhythmic pallet is a great way for young players to reinforce their basic eighth-note reading and every section gets its time in the spotlight. A few simple accidentals add some spice to the stew. The familiar tune and rock-n-roll treatment will catch the attention of your audience for sure. This arrangement even invites a bit of historical discussion or youthful research about the man who many consider to be the greatest composer of all time. Any season of the year, there’s always time forsome FUN! Let’s hear some BACH ‘N ROLL! / Niveau : 1.5 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Concert Band
