Par CURNOW JAMES. A major work that’s truly a joy to play! It has taken a lot of hard work to bring your ensemble to this level of performance. Now set them free! High-flying melodies, emotive harmonic structures and an electrifying finale combine into a beautifully crafted and ennobling musical statement. Sparkling; energetic; pensive; playful; reminiscent; heroic; there are so many shades and colors! This one is as much a thrill for the audience as it is for the ensemble. Groups that can play at this level simply MUST have the joy of performing The Eagle’s Flight by James Curnow!Outstanding! / Niveau : 5 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par CURNOW JAMES. An important part of our Essentials of Musicianship Series, Scale Studies for Band is designed to be used as an instructional aid during your normal daily practice. Written so that the scale studies can be interlaced at appropriate times into your rehearsal, they enable you to address the scale and key considerations of your next piece just before starting that piece. For instance, if the next arrangement you will rehearse has a section in the key of G Major, you can take a moment and review the study in that key (Study Number 7). It’s amazing how many wrong notes can be avoided by reviewing the key signature in an interesting and exciting manner, before diving into theperformance piece rehearsal. In the long run, this “key signature review” approach can actually save more rehearsal time than it uses. In addition to the full band aspect of Scale Studies, you may find value in quickly and easily administered “playing tests” using these materials. However you choose to use them, the Scale Studies from the Curnow Music Press Essentials of Musicianship Series will be valuable indeed! / Niveau : 2 / Etude / Educatif
