Cuckoo for Quarter Notes is intended for first-year band students. The pun on the familiar phrase Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs will convey the lighthearted nature of the music. The familiar cuckoo bird call consisting of a descending third is the basis for the melodies. The percussion interludes are intended to give young wind players an opportunity to rest. These interludes may be omitted or repeated as the director sees fit. Additionally, directors may wish to add eighth notes to the percussion interludes. Eighth notes have not been included in order to keep the meaning of the title intact. At m. 47 students will have an excellent opportunity to begin the study of dynamics. Thank you for choosing this composition. Joseph Compello.
