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.
This is a traditional South African folksong that has been adapted and
arranged for concert band. The authentic rhythmic backgrounds performed
on a variety of percussion instruments add color and interest. (2:40)
