Solo for euphonium (or baritone B.C.), bassoon, baritone sax or baritone T.C. with wind ensemble accompaniment.Band scoring:Fl 1-2; Ob; Cl1-2-3; B.Cl; AS 1-2; TS; BS (band); Bsn (band); FHn 1-2; Tpt 1-2; Tbn 1-(2 BarT.C band); Euph (band) Tba (SBass); Timp (x2) Glock; Vibes; Perc (suscym, tria); SD & BDFull of capability, but often scored as the bass backbone in many compositions and arrangement, tenor-bass instruments rarely get to shine as a featured soloist – especially in more novice or community band settings.If you would like to feature one of your ensemble’s lower-voiced instruments, this is the perfect piece for you.“Exploring the Bassment” keeps the band accompaniment scoring relatively simple but interesting for players; and makes allowance for one of several potential players (or a whole section!) to take the soloist role. At just over 4 minutes in length, this accessible work is jam-packed with learning points, and features a maestoso introduction section, a cheerful, upbeat and catchy melody, and the opportunity for the soloist to be musically creative in two small (fully notated) cadenzas.karawilliamsmusic.com.

Concert Band - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1456822 Composed by Kara Williams. Classical,Contemporary,Contest,Festival,Latin,Rock. 37 pages. Kara Williams #1035903. Published by Kara Williams (A0.1456822). Admittedly, the choice of title for this work for novice wind ensemble was based more on what would rhyme with the word ‘Tumbarumba’, than staying true to the style of the North American Latin groove made popular in the 1930s! It does; however, introduce players to some of the musical aspects found in Latin American and Afro-Cuban music in an accessible way. Written for and premiered by the Sturt Public School Band (near the town of Tumbarumba) this fun work utilises narrow instrumental tessituras, and incorporates simple off off-beat entries, section solis, layered melodies, and a fun bass line that will keep your low woodwind and brass players engaged and audience tapping their feet all the way through! Optional easier (rather than harmonically lower) 3rd trumpet and 3rd clarinet parts make this chart more inclusive and achievable for less experienced players; and, at around two and a half minutes in length, it’s a great addition to any concert!Scoring:Fl 1-2; Ob; Cl 1-2-(3 opt); BCl; AS; TS; BS; Bsn; F Hn 1-(2 opt); Tpt 1-2-(3 opt); Tbn; Euph; Tba (Bass); Glock (opt); Xylo (opt); Cabasa-Shaker; Drum set* (H.H. crash S.D.

Concert Band - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1279514 Composed by Kara Williams. Classical,Contemporary,Contest,Festival,March. Score and Parts. 69 pages. Kara Williams #870997. Published by Kara Williams (A0.1279514). The third movement from the four movement 'Suite in Sea' written for clarinet and piano by Kara Williams, 'Brew Time March' has been orchestrated for wind ensemble by the composer and has since proven to be a favourite with performers and audiences. We follow a young sailor as they excitedly hear the bugle call to have a break from work (brew time), grab a coffee (brew) and sit on the bow to watch the waves… lost in thoughts, the young sailor unexpectedly hears the sound of work recommencing, and scurries back, making it just in the nick of time… waiting eagerly for next the next call for Brew Time!  Opening with the 'Stand Easy' (break time) bugle call, Brew Time March is full of familiarly-sea-worthy sounds, and is a fun concert march that would be a great addition to any ensemble's library. In the style of a traditional military march, unless otherwise specified, notes should be played slightly detached throughout. Ensure the bass solo has plenty of attitude, and the rhythmic accompanying parts let the melodies breathe. Use a small set of crash cymbals (if parade-style cymbals are not available) - your percussionist will thank you! Also, hit the cymbals together slightly off-centre for zing and dynamic control, and hold the edges of the cymbals against the body to choke the ring where indicated. Keep this march a very steady two-feel throughout; however, feel free to completely stress the upper woodwinds out by going as fast as musically possible where marked at the end :-) Brew Time March runs for around 2:45 and is scored for full wind ensemble; however, it will work without one, some, or all the following parts: piccolo, 4th clarinet, baritone sax, bass clarinet, bassoon, horns in F, and bass trombone.
