Eighth Note Publications Flexible Band/String Series is the ultimate in
flexibility with non standard instrumentation for ensembles with
incomplete instrumentation or odd combinations. These pieces are
playable by as few as 5 woodwind, brass or string players with or
without percussion. This creates the opportunity for a mixed quintet to
perform these titles but also allows for performance for 10-15 players
up to full a band/orchestra with parts doubling. Great for music camps,
contest use or any band room that has non standard instrumentation.
For many reasons, Christmas means joy! "Ding Dong Merrily on High" is a
wonderful musical snapshot of the whole season. In this arrangement, we
hear church bells chiming, voices uniting, and see people smiling. It
features great tutti, instrument family, and small ensemble moments to
show off all aspects of the band.
