WHAT IS THE “LIMITED OR FULL” BAND SERIES?
Do you have intermediate or advanced students in a very small band program? Are your students ready for more intermediate or advanced band repertoire, yet the band’s limited instrumentation holds them back?
My “Limited or Full” series is geared toward the success of small bands with limited instrumentation. These pieces aim at giving small bands more advanced music within the framework of a “young band” arrangement. If you like the music, these pieces also sound great with a larger “full” instrumentation.
Pieces in this series are listed above with three asterisks (***).
