Incredible Agent Cool was composed in January of 2017 and was written as a fun piece for the beginning band. The piece was written for my students, who had to endure the month without me as I recovered from surgery. From the opening trill, to the powerful bass line, to melodies that envision characters from television shoes like Mission Impossible, Peter Gunn and Inspector Gadget, let the students envision a secret agent of their time that helps society.
When performing, remind the students that dynamics are not only important, but also necessary for expression to happen in the music. This can make the opening, the secondary melody, and the ending more effective. Help the percussion to not just play the repetitive rhythms, but to become a cohesive section that performs a groove, working together to perform a solid beat. Let the bassline fill up the sound, using lots of air, without overdoing the tone quality. The trombones might consider using 6th position for the F to help make a smooth slur, otherwise the technical skills of the piece were carefully thought of as the notes were written.
