Program Notes
New World Music for Intermediate Concert Band
Staying Upbeat brings cool upbeat rhythms right from the first bar. A funky latin feel in the percussion section supports opportunities for clean articulations from all sections. This piece will show your group's attention to detail throughout and challenge them with ranges and dynamic contrasts. There is even an upbeat battle between the lower and upper winds with the the percussion section holding down the groove. The low brass players will have their time in the sun so some creative staging might be fun along with it. This one will become one of the most requested pieces your band will have and can be put together quickly. It's all about Staying Upbeat!
