Agon - James Curnow
Grade 1 literature acts as something of a bridge between beginner literature and "real" music for the nascent musician. With that in mind, it is critical to choose just the right Grade 1 compositions as your group develops.As something of a competition for musical dominance between the Brasses, Woodwinds, and Percussion sections, AGON may be the perfect choice for your festival opening number. Each section, in fact every player, is shown to be an important part of the ensemble. Both smooth and marked playing are called for, while many stylistic and dynamic contrasts complete the recipe for a great young band showpiece.Compelling!

£72.99Awakening Hills - Richard L. Saucedo
MusicWorks - Grade 3 Commissioned for the All Iowa Middle School Honor Band, here is an exuberant work that features dynamic ensemble passages, layering effects, and extensive percussion scoring. Richard's masterful development of repetitive rhythmic motives makes this sound more difficult than it really is.

TranZendental Danse of Joi - James Bonney

There is an open section that allows any instrument you desire the unique opportunity to show off their improvisational skills in a wind ensemble setting. This piece is as rhythmically and melodically infectious as it is soulfully uplifting - a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. (Grade 4)
