A strong concert opener, this offers a dependable way to introduce dotted figures in a full‑ensemble context and build comfort with steady subdivisions.

FlexTrios for Brass

Brass Trio

An exciting airplane ride is depicted in this fun piece for beginning string groups.  The sections of the orchestra enter gradually and the tempo of the piece increases as the plane accelerates down the runway and takes off.  Gradually building to a fortissimo, the music then becomes quieter as the plane descends, and the music gradually slows as the plane comes to a stop at the gate.  In addition to being a great piece for working on tempo changes and dynamics, it reinforces a crisp detached bow stroke on the quarter notes, smooth repeated eighth notes, and using full bows on the half notes.  Imaginative and effective!
