Air and Allegro - Sandy Feldstein
Here's a lovely concert piece that will bring out the best in your young players. The dotted quarter-eighth note rhythmic pattern is tastefully featured and reinforces what has been taught in the lesson, while the tempo change between the andante and allegro sections makes this easy selection feel very sophisticated. Each section of the band has a chance to play on its own, as well as part of the full band. (Grade 1---Correlates with the Yamaha Band Student, Book 1, Page 18)

The Secrets of McDougal's Cave - Ed Huckeby

Goblin Dance - McBride
"Goblin Dance" for beginning band uses only the first six notes learned in band instruction, and is an ideal bridge from method book exercises to concert music! Unison themes are introduced so each member of the band gets to play the melody, before dividing into melody and harmony provided by the low brass and woodwinds. A second theme is introduced in unison, followed by the Goblin Dance finale when all three parts: melody, harmony, and second theme join together for an exciting and mature-sounding finish. You and your bands will enjoy working on this catchy and rhythmic beginning band piece that your audiences will love. Spooky fun!

Conquest - Sandy Feldstein
A true "contest" style piece for the beginning band that uses limited note and rhythm resources, but is very creatively written. Your youngest students will feel like they are playing serious music, as the piece is bold, aggressive and sounds more difficult than it plays. This is the type of exceptional music you have come to expect from two of the most popular composers of beginning band music. This piece is correlated to The Yamaha Advantage band method book 1, but can be used with any band program of study.
