One of the all-time dance-pop/disco favorites is presented in a hot new version from arranger Ralph Ford. With its epic groove, this one is pure fun from start to finish! (1:45) / Marching Band

Par PASTORE CARMINE. Fun for all!! The chorale style opening soon turns into a rousing, funky-jazzy-gospel riff-style roof-raiser that will have your audience tapping along. It's nice for the concert band to get the opportunity to play something 'jazzy' once in a while, and you know the audience will love it as much as the band does. Plenty of opportunity to study jazz-style phrasing in the concert band, interesting Percussion parts, a catchy tune and good linear motion for all move GETTIN' GOSPEL to the 'top of the list'. The only danger here is that the band might like it a little TOO much, and want to play it every day. / Niveau : 2 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Fanfare

This arrangement is based on the hit song by the French duo Daft Punk and features Pharrell Williams.

Scored for small bands with reduced instrumentation. / Marching Band

Par BULLA STEPHEN. Authentic Big Band swing style music for the concert band! You know this one will be a crowd pleaser, and SO much fun to play! Stephen Bulla works his magic with the great Jazz sounds of the 40s and 50s in such a way that your band will be able to put it together and make it happen. Lots of great jazz style articulation and harmonic considerations ensure that your students are doing more than just playing the piece. They are learning Big Band Jazz style interpretation in the bargain, and loving it as they do. This is a great opportunity to study the historical American roots of Jazz! / Niveau : 3 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Fanfare

Par HOSAY JAMES L.. What is the top secret method for getting the most out of your youngmusicians? There is no guaranteed secret method. However you can motivate all musicians with Spy Flix which puts a fun spin on the ‘secret agent music’ typical of the great Hollywood spy movies. Turn your otherwise routine band practice into Music 007 with Spy Flix. / Niveau : 3 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Fanfare

Par CURNOW JAMES. Contrasting colors and varied orchestration techniques make this majestic setting of OH LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM come alive for Christmas. Of the three different tunes that are commonly associated with the original carol text, this arrangement uses the melody that’s best known in England. ENGLISH CAROL FANTASY remains entirely accessible to bands at this level and plenty of cueing makes sure it’s useful for ensembles of all shapes and sizes. Feature your deserving young trumpet section leader on the easy solo, or let the entire first trumpet section play it soli. The low woodwinds and brass also get some “well doubled” exposure, so playing this one will be fun for all. Try it! / Niveau : 2 / Répertoire / Fanfare
