SQ88289 Ballade for Solo Flute and Piano Accompaniment (Both parts are included in the Full Set)

Danny Boy audio availble for this title
– Arr. John Edmondson

This classic Irish melody is best known as the famous Percy Grainger arrangement, Tune from County Derry, but this one is easy enough for any middle school band and interesting enough for a band of any grade level. It showcases the low winds the first time and a unique harmonization on the second chorus, while teaching a broad lyrical style. This is a great teaching piece suitable for any concert!

The Greatest Generation audio availble for this title
– Arr. Anne McGinty

Composed as a tribute to all of the veterans of World War II, this tuneful march features a dramatically simple theme in two settings and keys - Bb and Eb. Simple sixteenth tonguing patterns offer the opportunity to teach double tonguing in the brass, and even the low winds get a chance at playing the melody. The perfect choice for concert or festival.
