Etude for Small Band - Flexible Band 4 Parts & Optional Percussion
A well-trained basic ensemble is essential to good band development.
"Etude for Small Band" is a great product that provides a fun way to learn and practice the basics. Your students will have fun with this too!
"Etude for Small Band" - Flexible Band 4 Parts & Optional Percussion
Basic fundamental practice is one of the most important aspects of playing an instrument.
However, basic practice can be tedious, repeating monotonous phrases over and over.
I created this piece so that fundamental practice might be more enjoyable.
It is like a Burgmuller piece for piano; you can have fun playing while learning the basics.
The minimum number of players is four (percussion instruments are optional), and the work consists of 5 sections.
As the subtitle indicates, the music covers 1) unison and long tones, 2) scales, 3) harmony, 4) intervals and arpeggios, and 5) tonguing.
Valuable for more than basic practice, this collection works for concert with a larger group since it is nearly 6 minutes long, or for ensemble contest with one player per part, since 4 out of 5 sections total only 4:30 minutes.
We hope your students will enjoy this work in its various settings.

Mr. Eddie Daniels, congratulations on your 80th birthday. Thank you for the joy of your exciting music!
In fact, there are two people in our company who were born on the same day, October 19th! A nice coincidence!
Sinfonietta No. 4 "For a Brighter Future" by Hirokazu Fukushima - Tokai University Takanawadai HS
Takanawadai High School Band annually commissions a contest piece for its seniors. During the pandemic in 2020, "Sinfonietta No. 4 - For a Brighter Future" was written by Hirokazu Fukushima. "The subtitle was selected by the commissioning band seniors. 2020 was very challenging for many musicians. Performing opportunities are rare, and uncertainties for the future are in everyday life. So the title came from their strong wish to have a brighter future."
