Resurgence of Sound

This uplifting work was composed to celebrate the perseverance of instrumental music education. It provides ample opportunity to work on articulations, syncopated patterns, balance, tone, and dynamic and rhythmic shifts, all while performing fun, uplifting, and dramatic melodic material. Every instrument is given the opportunity to perform the melody, making it exciting for all musicians to play. The piece was composed for Grade 1.5 bands but includes advanced parts for flute, clarinet, alto sax, trumpet, horn, and trombone/baritone. These parts add range, technique, and control at the Grade 3 level. This offers the opportunity for more advanced players to play these parts with more flourishes while the majority of the band can play at an easier level.
