Feelin' Good

"Feelin' Good" was written for my middle school marching band for their first out-of-state performance. There was not a title to the song when they performed it. Even though it almost has a tropical feeling to it, I settled on Feelin' Good as a title since it's attached to such a nice memory for me. It is written with a limited range and has easy to learn rhythms making it accessible to beginning and developing musicians alike. The x note-heads in the snare drum and tenor parts denote a rim shot is to be played. The x note-heads in the cymbal part denotes a hi-hat position is to be used, and the regular note-heads denote a regular crash is to be played. The bass drum and cymbals parts are each a single line to accommodate for those bands just being introduced to marching bass drums and cymbals. My kids had a blast performing this, and hopefully yours will too!
