Step Up! is a band section feature for beginning instrumental students. The work provides an excellent vehicle to showcase each instrument in the band, providing an ideal selection for recruiting assemblies, parent/grandparentas day programs and first concerts. Each section can stand for the solo feature, at the discretion of the director. If an instrument is not in an ensemble, then that portion of the piece can be omitted. Example: If there are no saxophones in the group, then omit mm. 31a43 and insert percussion (or hand claps) on the first two beats of m. 74. I suggest that if the glissando is to be played in m. 68 that it only be introduced once the students are secure performing the passage without the ornament.
