Par CURNOW JAMES. The suite format and descriptive nature of snapshots allows Grade 2. 5 bands to handle a relatively large sized piece and have the fun of exploring myriad moods and styles. There are valuable geographical and historical considerations for cross-curricular teaching, and the sheer “enjoyability” of this one is undeniable. In Movement 1, early explorers witness the grandeur and expanse of the largest fresh surface water system on earth. In Movement 2, wavelets gently lap on the shores of beautiful beaches while happy families enjoy a sunny afternoon, and Movement 3 explores the ships and boats of every description which have navigated these waters for centuries. While thisexceptional piece is entirely different, if you enjoyed James Curnow’s previous Grade 2. 5 suites, you really should focus some attention on SNAPSHOTS. You won’t regret it. / Niveau : 2.5 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
