Par CURNOW JAMES. Feature the section that “delivers the energy” in this great new arrangement by James Curnow. Based on a French folk song that tells a story about three young drummer boys, the music uses imitation, question and answer and stylistic rhythmic figures to challenge these proud musicians. While featuring the Percussion section, there are also great parts for everyone else, so the ent…

Par HANNICKEL MIKE. Let your young band ROCK with BACH! The “Musette” from the “Anna Magdalena Notebook” forms the basis of this light-hearted mis-treatment of the original rocker, J. S. Bach.

A few simple accidentals add some spice to the stew…
