| Publisher Description: Looking for an entry-level quartet for solo and ensemble for beginning or middle-level trombones or mixed brass? These works are intended to fulfill that need. For every instrument, there is a need for printed music which is appropriate for beginners, intermediate, and advanced performers. These quartets are intended for beginning and middle-level trombonists but could be used by any combination of brass players. This collection is intended to help young instrumentalists explore the Classical style of the latter part of the 1700s. The four selections are arranged in concert key with parts for Trombone, Horn in F, Trumpet, and Tuba. The collection includes a score for each dance and individual parts which may be photocopied.Besides using these arrangements to feature aspiring musicians at concerts and recitals, they could be used to showcase the entire brass section of beginning and middle-level bands. These arrangements would be useful at middle grades with smaller bands and performing groups of limited instrumentation. These dances are short, between 16 and 24 measures in length, with very easy rhythmic demands and range. The melodies, mostly moving eighth note runs in legato style, are written for 1st trombone and doubled in 1st trumpet. The tuba doubles the 4th trombone.Horn in F parts double 2nd and 3rd trombone.2nd trumpet doubles 2nd trombone. The dances provide opportunities to develop articulation, especially staccato and legato, and hear simple chord progression harmony. They are written in 3/4-time signature. Played with repeats, the dances provide young students with the experience of playing triple meter in one. |
