This innovative trumpet feature gives you the unique option of using two groups of antiphonal trumpets set up on either side of the band. All instruments use just six notes in this excellent opener or trumpet feature for your next concert. The piece uses only two dynamic levels and helps you teach accents and staccatos. For added visual splendor consider having your ?trumpeteers? hang colorful pennants from their instruments. Very easy.

Nena (Gabrielle Suzanne Kerner) est la figure emblématique de la new-wave allemande. En 1982 son premier titre Nur geträumt entre directement dans les meilleures ventes en Allemagne. Un an plus tard elle se hisse au sommet des hit-parades avec les titres Leuchtturm et 99 Luftballons qui deviendra un succès international. En 2002 elle réenregistre la version anglaise d?Irgendwie irgendwo irgendwann avec la chanteuse britannique Kim Wilde ; un vrai succès ! Peter Kleine Schaars vous propose un medley pêchu qui rassemble ces quatre incontournables de l?icône pop de la scène allemande.

Par SCHAARS PETER KLEINE. Dancescriptions combines many styles derived from pop music with techniques from classical composition. The styles are not the focal point; the true musical definition comes from the interpretation of the transition passages. After the statement of a rhythmic and melodic cell the music is developed from the thematic material in the appropriate style - soul music, disco, merengue, ballad and rock - in the Big Band tradition. The different rhythms and genres are interwoven and combined to create a natural flow in this musical puzzle. / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par OKPEBHOLO SHAWN E.. Shawn Okpebholo?s Heritage, in the Edition Peters Concert Band Series, evokes moods, events and sounds (including West African drumming and indigenous melodies) from an ethnomusicological research visit the composer undertook to Nigeria. One of the primary musical themes of the work is an adaptation of a song that comes from the Esan people, a small ethnic group in the southern part of Nigeria and the tribe to which the composer has deep historical and family ties. The Esan language is poetic in nature and, at various moments in the work, the musicians chant the text from an Esan song: Ekine leleyea do obhimen la doeki nalo (My investment in you is paid off. Because of your hard work, your future is bright). Heritage is a revised version of a work previously entitled This is Africa, which was commissioned by Professor Marcellus Brown and the Boise State University Symphonic Winds for the 2011 National CBDNA Convention and is dedicated to the memory of Dr Harry Begian. / Date parution : 2022-05-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band

The idea behind The Groove Makers is that all musicians regardless of training or musical taste can play together if they all keep the same ‘groove.’ This inspired Peter Kleine Schaars to write a piece everyone would enjoy and to give the concert band a trendy ‘groove’ that the audience can really connect with.

Start your Christmas concert in a different way! This brilliant march composed in the British march tradition of Peter Graham is based on the famous song 'O Come All Ye Faithful' (Adeste Fidelis). Begin uw kerstconcert eens anders! Deze briljante mars gecomponeerd in de Britse marstraditie van Peter Graham is gebaseerd op het welbekende lied 'O Come Al Ye Faithful' (Adeste Fidelis).

Drei kurzweilige Impressionen-Dans le cadre du projet ?La musique de Kurt Weill? organisé à Leeuwarden (Pays-Bas) en 2006 Peter Kleine Schaars a donné une seconde jeunesse à plusieurs œuvres que le compositeur allemand avait créées pour le Dreigroschen Orchester (L?Orchestre de quat?sous) un ensemble qu?il avait spécialement formé et dont il avait fixé l?instrumentation pour interprété sa Kleine Dreigroschenmusik (Une petite musique de quat?sous).Peter Kleine Schaars s?est inspiré des trois périodes qui ont marqué la vie de Kurt Weill (1900-1950) : ses étapes à Berlin Paris et New York. Three Aspects of Kurt Weill (?Trois impressions divertissantes de Kurt Weill?) développe un thèmerécurrent exposé dans trois climats musicaux différents qui correspondent aux trois étapes de la vie de Weill.Le premier mouvement est une marche protestataire ?aux accents berlinois? qui parodie l?utilisation de la musique sous le fascisme. Les trompettes ont le premier rôle. Le second mouvement chemine sur une valse musette toute parisienne qui fait la part belle au saxophone alto et à l?accordéon. Le troisième et dernier mouvement développe le thème dans une trame swing typique du Big Band. Votre formation se métamorphose en un grand orchestre digne de Broadway !

A Caribbean Sailing Trip. With this composition in a rumba style, Peter Kleine Schaars invites us to enjoy a relaxed sailing trip in the waters of the Caribbean. The feeling of freedom on the boat is mirrored by an extensive melody surrounded by a palette of colourful harmonies ? the shades of the water ? while the clever percussion sets the course of the ship. Who wouldn?t dream of such an adventure? Although the musical themes and accompaniments have been constructed from combinations of rhythmic cells that occur less often, the composition sounds very natural and flowing. Assuming the rhythmic cells 1 to 8 are part of the basic skills of your band, in this composition, the accent rather lies on cells 9 to 13. The instrumentation is created in such a way that these ?new cells? occur in all parts, so that all musicians of the band become familiar with this rhythmic development.
