Pieces for Spring Concert

Piece #1: James Bond

This piece is entertaining and fun to listen to. Its a very popular theme that everyone knows and will enjoy playing. This piece suits our strengths as an ensemble because the time and key signatures are pretty easy and it allows all areas of the band to shine. This piece will challenge us because it is a longer piece, meaning that we have to improve our endurance. Also, this piece is a Level 4, meaning that it will be a little harder to learn, but I think that we can definitely play it if we work hard.

Piece #2: Guardians of the Galaxy

This is piece is very enjoyable to listen to and I like it because I think it would be fun to play and the whole band could get into it. This piece plays to our strengths because the notes and rhythms are pretty simple throughout and there is nothing out - of - the - ordinary. This piece would challenge us because of the different styles throughout the piece, which would require us to work more on balance and dynamic contrast.
